mookie was my first guy that helped me get through this thing.

they really interviewed yoshi about hyeseong 😭 he said that they’ve talked a lot about the difference between korean/japanese baseball and american baseball, asian culture and american culture, hyeseong’s dog in korea and their favorite food. yoshinobu also said that they’ve talked during meal times and the game, and that they’ve had quite deep and sincere conversations, about the differences between japanese and korean culture, too. he said that hyeseong is always the first to arrive and be out in the field, despite the fact that he doesn’t get many chances to play right now, and that his consistently positive attitude is admirable, which makes him such a special friend. he’s one of the hardest workers on the team, and people recognize that.

FAVOURITE FIGURE SKATING PROGRAMS

Yuna Kim (김연아) - Danse Macabre (SP, 2008-09)

I thought, “This isn’t retirement.” […] It’s not that I’m withdrawing from the front lines or anything, it’s that I’m at the starting line to become even better.

"in order to chase my ideal shape of fs, i realized i don't need to be in competitions, and i might only be able to do certain things outside of comps" EXACTLY GOOD FOR YOU

a major source of income for the isu just retired from competition, and he's happy to continue as a pro skater, free from the scores and free to truly express himself. congratulations to yuzuru, and i hope the isu suffers
