World and Olympic champions graced All That Skate 2019 in Seoul, with star billing on the three nights going to Yuna Kim. The Vancouver 2010 ladies' singles champion appeared 12 months after a guest appearance in last year's show. And despite the appearance of two double world champions in Nathan Chen and Javier Fernandez, there was no question as to who the crowd had come to see. She showed her trademark elegance that night, and did so again 15 months on with two new routines inside Seoul's Olympic Park KSPO Dome. At the end of Act 1, she performed 'Dark Eyes' with a little help from world ice dance champions Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron and their French compatriots, pairs bronze medallists Vanessa James and Morgan Cipres. Early in Act 2, she showed a more sassy side with a dance to 'Issues' by Julia Michaels. Kim's gestures with her face and hands provoked roars of approval from the audience and she stayed on the ice for a whole minute to receive a rapturous ovation.

Aside from Kim, reigning double world champion Nathan Chen was the biggest name in attendance with Javier Fernandez and PyeongChang silver medallist Shoma Uno also taking part. Chen landed a quad in his dynamic opening skate 'Nemesis' with the American clearly enjoying himself in his time off following his first year exams at Yale University. http://instagram.com/p/ByfJDhhnVhJ The crowd appeared to take as much pleasure as he did in the performance with Chen appreciating the support he received from the crowd in Instagram.

Olympic gold medallist Yuna Kim made her first public skating performance in a year as she returned to the ice for the All That Skate ice show in Seoul. The Kim won the Olympic gold medal at Vancouver 2010 but retired form professional competition in 2014 after winning silver at the Games in Sochi. In 2018 she made a guest appearance in the All That Skate show but is the star of this year's show at the KSPO Dome in Seoul. The 28-year-old Kim told reporters she was "extremely nervous" before the show. "I'm looking forward to working with skaters who are actively performing on the global stage, and I'm excited to see how we can create harmony between us," Kim added. "I'm very happy to show our performances to the fans who have been waiting for us." Last year Kim performed to just one song for the show but has prepared two gala programmes for fans this year.
