Last month, the skater won the Winter Youth Olympics in Switzerland. Young is also known as the first Korean female skater to successfully land a triple axel in international competition.

Experts believe that with such a strong technical performance, Young has every chance to change the power balance in women's figure skating, where athletes trained by renowned Russian coach Eteri Tutberdize have been occupying the winners' podium for the past two seasons.
