Finally watched Minkyu and Rio's SPs. Watching them back to back I can confirm that the pcs score should have been the other way around. MK's sp is PACKED. No wonder Patrick did the choreo. It's FULL of difficult steps and transitions and normally that should count in the score๐
my god, the speed and energy and passion through all of minkyu's movements (including spins!!) are incredible, felt like i didnt breathe once during the program
A flawless, stunning performance. Nearly every single step is placed to the music, the sound of his blades adding to the sonic experience. Breathtaking from beginning to end. PCS should have been even higher...

Minkyu and Rio actually have the same RFI bracket-RBO counter-CW twizzle cluster
I think it's quite obvious that Rio barely moved his right knee esp on his bracket compared to Minkyu... ๐ซ

โRecently, I changed my skates, so Iโm now getting used to them. I think I did better than I expected.โ
โI changed them as a precaution because I wanted to change them before they break.โ
โIโm very happy that today in the short program I achieved a small medal, because a medal is definitely the goal. Obviously the gold medal is the goal but I want to skate a clean program in the Free Skate and then I will be satisfied no matter the result.
On competing against the same skaters for many years in juniors
โThe skaters Iโm competing with right now are absolutely excellent skaters from all around the world. Iโm very satisfied with that, but for next season Iโm going to compete in seniors, so Iโm actually very excited for that and I will try to do my best to prepare for it.โ
