I have learned from the first Olympics, of course. When I went to my first Olympic Games, I experienced all of the pressure and was able to win the gold medal. I try not to feel the pressure, and I try not to be nervous when I am on the ice and when I compete.

Building a better life for every child is a lot harder than becoming a world champion. Both goals take dedication and commitment.

I don’t want friends to die...or fade away. I don’t want battles where we have to lose in order to win.

I love weekends. Just like everyone else, I get to rest on weekends and go out with friends. I hate Mondays.

The Olympics is the biggest competition for all athletes and an unforgettable event.

For an athlete myself, it is especially meaningful for our country to host an Olympics. Every athlete hopes to participate in an Olympics, so I still can't believe the games of dreams is going to take place in Korea.

Even in the hardest circumstances, dreams can give you the courage to live, and I hope I can share that message with children in need.
