In the men’s junior grand prix, 17-year-old Lim Joo-heon took first place in the short program. The Korean figure scene is bursting at the seams with promise.

Starting his first international performance to an insert from the movie Moulin Rouge, Lim Joo-heon landed his first jump triple axel effortlessly and earned extra points for his next three jumps.
