If I have a chance to meet a famous athlete, I will definitely choose Yuna Kim, who is the most famous figure skate in the world. I think she can be a role model to anybody, for her diligence and boldness. By meeting her, I want to learn those two characteristics which will help my life become succeeded.
To begin with, Yuna Kim is famous for her ceaseless diligence. Once, I had an opportunity to watch a documentary film which featured Yuna Kim after winning gold medal in winter Olympic. Before watching the program, I just though her ability to skate well was inherent, not a result of effort. However, I realized that not only intrinsic skills, but also lots of efforts were responsible for her success. For instance, even if she became the best skater in 2006, who did not have competitive rivals any more, she did not stop practicing everyday, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. In addition, she did not hesitate to learn new skills to upgrade herself and prepare for new matches. It made me surprised because I had known many athletes, who achieved great success and stopped practicing due to excessive satisfaction. Yuna Kim was different. She always tried to beat 'herself' to become a better skater. I was so impressed by her diligence. Thus, if I can meet her, I will give a big applause to her for her endless hardworking and learn know-how how a person behave such a diligent ant!
On top of that, she also has a lot of guts. Whether she was in a big match or in a public area which are filled with so many people, she always remains calm and shows what she prepared 100 percent. Because I have some fear standing in front of many audiences, I really admired her boldness and audacity. To illustrate, take an example when she was just 14 years old. When she participated in world figure skating match for the first time, she did not represent any nervousness. Rather, she enjoyed the game and got a silver-medal. To my surprise, even though she committed some mistakes during the performance, she were not perplexed by her errors and smiled to audiences. I am eager to imitate her courage, as I am a little bit shy student and have a few occasions to lecture toward many students. By taking to her, I will certainly get some tips how to behave boldly.
Many medias just focus on her outward beauty. Actually, it is true that she is one of the most beautiful women in South Korea. However, I think Yuna Kim is more that that. She is a real beauty not because of her elegant appearance, but because of her internal aspects, hardworking and courageous. Those two characters are crucial to lead our successful life, as person who is hardworking as well as bold are more likely to represent oneself well and have better possibility to catch a chance. I respect Yuna Kim's internal features. That is the reason why I place Yuna Kim on a top position among so many entertainers and athletes.
