I watched Kim Yu-na's replays at YouTube.com www.youtube.com, and she was magnificient. She had taken my heart away.
Korean figure skater, Kim Yu-na set a new record in world figure skating *history. She scored a total of 207.71 points at the World Figure Skating Championship and won the first gold medal for Korea at this competition. Kim is the first female skater to receive a score over 200 points.
Kim also set a new world record for the female short program by scoring 76.12. The previous record was set by Kim Yu-na herself at the 2009 Four **Continents event.
Everyone who was watching Kim's program was *mesmerized by her performance. After Kim's finished her program everyone stood and clapped *in response to her *brilliant performance.
**Commentators and reporters of foreign media also praised the Korean skater. The AP quoted that "Kim skates with *ease and lightness, seeming almost to fly across the ice, but has an *incredible power and strength."
Now that Kim has won the gold at the World Championship her next goal is to win a gold at the 2010 Winter Olympics.
