Russia's famous Russian trussova, who won the runner-up in figure skating at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, recently announced that she will try a five-week jump that even male athletes have never mastered, which has aroused the attention of ice fans. In fact, in the world of figure skating, the female rising star who has dreams and looks forward to shining her dreams into reality is not just Trussova.
Trusova loves "Flame Hair Color" and her nickname is "Russian Rocket".
Two days ago, Shin Ji-ya, the Star of Hope in South Korea, who won the silver medal in the women's singles event of the 2022 International Skating Union (ISU) World Junior Figure Skating Championships, returned home through Incheon International Airport on the afternoon of the 19th local time.
Figure skating girl Shin Ji-ya returned to China
The first South Korean figure skater to win a medal at the World Junior Championships after Kim Yeon-ah is determined to improve her international competitiveness through difficult technical training. After returning home through Incheon International Airport on the 19th, Shin Ji-ya met with the reporter and said: "During this period of training, high-difficulty jumping actions such as the houwai ring and axel for three weeks were trained, and the high-difficulty jump training was temporarily stopped before the World Championships, but focused on the technical element training in the program, and will strive to show better artistic expression in the future." ”
Shin jiya skated cleanly in both the women's singles short program and the free skating at the recent Junior World Championships in Tallinn, Estonia, to achieve an overall score of 206.01 points. In the end, he lost to The United States' Isabe Levito by a narrow margin of 0.54 points, and was second in the lineup. At this point, South Korean athletes have won medals at the Figure Skating World Junior Championships after 16 years after the "queen of figure skating" Kim Yeon-er (silver medal in 2005, gold medal in 2006).

The World Junior Figure Skating Championships is the most prestigious international junior figure skating event, and Kim Yeon-er is the only South Korean athlete to reach the podium of the event.
Shin Ji-ah's acting ability is so strong that there is no obvious gap compared with her Korean predecessors. She perfectly completed the three-week combination jump that even Korea's top contestants could not digest, and brilliantly performed non-jumping elements such as rotation and footwork levels - in the competition's short program, free skating, all non-jumping elements except the dance sequences achieved the highest level four.

The scariest thing is the rate of growth. Shin Ji-ya is the rookie who debuted in an international competition for the first time this season. Although there was some pressure to participate in international competitions in the competition, she unswervingly focused on her acting skills and showed a strong desire to win.
At present, Shen Zhiya's height is 1 meter 48, and it is growing to varying degrees every day. Usually, figure skaters grow up and fall into a trough as their body shape changes. Physical exertion allocation is also a conundrum. In order to get high scores, the difficult jumps had to be made in the second half of the extra points, but now Shin Ji-ya's physical reserves could not keep up, so they had to be carried out in the first half of the performance.
Shen Zhiya, a silver medal-winning "figure skating girl", said that she had previously focused on "high-difficulty jump training".
Shen Zhiya was also thinking about what the homework in front of him was. She said: "Usually through running for physical training, I will accumulate more physical strength in the future, and arrange difficult jumps in the second half of the performance. When asked if she was tired of training as a child, she laughed and said, "It's tiring, but because I like figure skating, it doesn't matter."
Born in Busan, South Korea, Shin Ji-ya accidentally went to the ice rink in front of his home to play in the first grade of elementary school, and became interested in skating, and officially began figure skating training. In order to officially start her life as a figure skater, she and her parents came to Seoul, and when they were in the fifth grade of elementary school, they mastered five different postures of three-week jumping.

As for the question of who her idol is, Shin Ji-ya, born in 2008, did not hesitate to say the name of Kim Yeon-ah, the gold medalist in women's single skating at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. She said: "Of course, Sister Kim Yeon-er is my role model" and "I haven't seen it yet".
As for the phrase "what kind of player do you want to be", she said meticulously: "I am a hard-working player." ”
When asked "is there anything you want to do now," she said, "I just want to go and play with my family." And with a smile, he said, "It seems that being interviewed is harder than training." ”
