The Legend of Return
Chapter 405. The King and Queen on the Ice
‘Brother?’
Yuna Kim’s mother, Ye Mi-jeong, turned her head at the sound of her daughter’s brother.
There was no man in Korea that Yuna, who had no real brother, would call so warmly.
A man caught her eye.
A tall, handsome man waved at Yuna at the entrance of the rink.
‘I said Jang Tae-san…..’
Ye Mi-jung was sensitive about the incident last night.
Ahead of the Olympics, it was not easy for Yuna Kim to adjust her condition.
She was a daughter who came home only when she was satisfied with practice since she was young.
But, unexpectedly, the daughter had a problem.
A guy named Cheon Min-jae had an accident.
I knew that he was always keeping an eye on Yuna.
I noticed it when I brought snacks to the ice rink or when I purposely came and shouted “fighting”.
Yuna frowned, but Ye Mi-jung thought Cheon Min-jae was okay.
He was the eldest son of the Cheonil Group.
His appearance was outstanding and he had a good physique befitting a national representative.
Currently, Yuna is getting a lot of attention, but I didn’t know when this atmosphere would fade.
There was also talk of corporate sponsorship, so I wasn’t deeply concerned about Cheon Min-jae’s behavior.
I didn’t suspect that the name of the group’s grandson and the national representative would be a bully.
Moreover, even though he is currently participating in the national team, he was in the military status.
However, the ax I believed in struck me in the foot.
Cheon Min-jae came to visit at night and stabbed Yuna.
When I heard that, I thought I was going crazy.
The incident escalated to such an extent that the police were dispatched.
After receiving a call from Yuna in a hurry, she came and took her home.
With tears in my eyes, I managed to stop him from going to the police station.
Everywhere there were reporters who wanted to cover anything with their eyes open.
Yesterday, it was somehow silenced, but it was obvious that if it was distorted and known, the image would be damaged.
But I didn’t want to cover it up like it never happened.
I was thinking of trying to find out what was wrong with me and deal with it as best I could.
I felt like putting Min-jae Cheon in prison, but I didn’t know anything in detail.
Yuna spoke only when she was looking through the list of reporters she knew.
It means that a text message saying that it was resolved well came from my brother.
After hearing that, I couldn’t ask Yuna any more.
I don’t know what text messages were sent, but it was after Yuna’s face brightened.
After a good night’s sleep, we came to the athletes’ village together in the late afternoon.
Yuna’s training schedule was different from group training, so there were not many restrictions in the Athletes’ Village.
The nation’s expectations for Yuna were high.
The daughter, who lives on her shoulders, felt sorry for her on the one hand and proud on the other.
It was a strong heart that did not resemble himself.
Taemong was a fairy who descended on a five-colored cloud when he was pregnant with Yuna Kim.
That too, with both hands holding knives like skate blades.
Since she was Yuna, who did her best in what she wanted to do since she was young, Ye Mi-jung believed in her daughter.
“nice to see you. It is called Jangtaesan.”
Before I knew it, Jang Tae-san came closer.
I bowed my head and greeted him politely.
‘Looking closer, he’s more handsome.’
Unlike when I saw it from a distance, when I came closer, I noticed a distinct appearance.
Thanks to Yuna’s popularity, she shined, not falling behind any other stars I’ve met.
“nice to meet you. I’m Yuna’s mother.”
“Yuna looks pretty just like her mother.”
The words of Jang Tae-san, who smiled, caught my ears.
The tone of his voice was appropriate and his manner of speaking was soft.
“Brother, that’s not it! I think I look like my father~.”
“I don’t think so? Your mother was incredibly popular when she was young, right?”
“Then~ If I hadn’t met Yuna’s father, I would have driven my car in Gangnam and heard my wife’s voice.”
I naturally matched the beat to a joke I didn’t hate.
‘I don’t think he’s particularly interested in Yuna…’
Jang Tae-san’s gaze at Yuna was completely different from Cheon Min-jae’s.
Ye Mi-jung recognized that she was plain as if she were looking at her younger brother.
“Wow! If I knew my father, I would run away…”
Yuna seemed more comfortable and happy than ever.
She was a daughter who had lost her smile lately due to stress as the Olympics approached.
But, like a lie, he was smiling wide.
“Thank you for yesterday’s work.”
“You don’t have to worry anymore.”
“is it so?”
“It was handled well. Unless he’s an idiot who doesn’t know the horrors of the world, he’ll never come here again.”
‘okay? Is it enough to ignore the eldest son of the Cheonil group like this?’
Yemi-Jeong recently found out about Jangtaesan.
Yuna never cheated or lied about small things.
He said he first received help when he fell at the ice rink.
I even heard about physical therapy.
According to the information I quickly found out, Jang Tae-san was a healthy young man attending the law department at Korea University.
Even though his family was fairly wealthy and he was young, he already managed an investment company.
Jang Tae-san ignored Cheon Min-jae, the eldest son of Cheonil Group, as if it were nothing.
“Next time you show up, I’m going to blow the bamboo stick!”
Yuna Kim made up her mind.
“Yuna! What is jukppang, the young lady…..”
“What~ Dad taught me. For a guy like that, the answer is to eat first bread and bamboo bread.”
“I can’t live.”
“ha ha ha. Is your father cool? I want to see you again.”
“Dad said he wanted to see it too. catch me when My mom’s food skills are art~. Hehehe.”
Yuna Kim treated Jang Tae-san comfortably, as if she were her real brother.
‘It’s comfortable….. It’s like a son.’
Mijeong Yeh has no son and fantasizes about her son more than anyone else.
The upbeat Jang Tae-san felt like an older son.
“By the way, brother. what is that?”
“skate.”
“Is it a gift? Is it big enough for me?”
“I will wear them.”
“Your brother? why?”
“To teach you a lesson about figure skating.”
“what? My brother is a figure skater?”
Yuna Kim was genuinely surprised.
It didn’t make sense for a cross-country skier to be a figure skater.
Different muscles are used for each exercise.
Although their motor nerves are more developed than ordinary people, they cannot become experts in all sports.
“I can’t use too many jokes.”
I couldn’t believe Yemi.
I thought it was a bluff.
“I will show you with my skills rather than words.”
Jang Tae-san smiles.
“Don’t joke, really. My brother is angry with me.”
Yuna had a strong love and pride for figure skating.
“If you mess up, I’ll buy you an ice rink.”
“What does that mean again?”
Ye Mi-jeong stuttered.
The construction cost of the ice rink was formidable and the operating cost was high.
Even if it is roughly built, it is hundreds of billions.
It wasn’t something to be thrown around as a joke.
“I’m thinking about it because my American friend wants to invest in the Korean sports world.”
“Brother… are you really going to ride?”
“wait.”
Jang Tae-san, Kim Yuna, and Ye Mi-jung, who were wearing figure skating skates as soon as they finished speaking,
stared blankly at the sudden situation.
***
Wow.
Jangtaesan lightly cuts through the ice.
‘What what!’
Kim Yuna’s eyes widened at Jang Tae-san’s smooth movements.
I was wearing a black game outfit under my sportswear, no matter when it was ready.
All black contrasted with the pure white face.
Jang Tae-san, who was lightly sliding on the ice after recovering, was a perfect figure skater.
“Is he…doing figure skating?”
Mom asked in surprise.
“I’m seeing it for the first time too…”
“The form is plausible.”
It wasn’t plausible, but he killed it.
A slender body suitable for her tall height, the detailed muscles and white skin exposed outside the clothes were an illusion.
Yuna had never seen such a handsome male figure skater.
It was much better to see than the popular Japanese male players these days.
“I’m ready~.”
Jang Tae-san settled in the center without even practicing jumps.
“Brother… run gently.”
Running on ice and jumping are different.
Yuna was so worried that she wanted to stop it even now.
There was no prepared background music.
He faked his head and took a pose with his right hand covering his face.
A look very familiar to Yuna Kim.
‘Sergey… Yagudin!’
The king of the ice, who gave away the sadness of second place in his later years and gave a near-perfect performance in Salt Lake in 2002.
thud! thud!
Yuna Kim’s heart was beating wildly.
It was Yagudin, who had been her idol since childhood.
A skater who became a legend who survived like a tenacious voice while listening to the sound of the second person in his later years and took a splendid flight.
It seemed that he had returned to this place now.
‘No way…..’
Yuna Kim unknowingly gave strength to her hand.
I watched it so many times that I had all of Yagudin’s movements in my head.
In particular, I watched the 2002 Olympic Games hundreds of times.
“Yagudin……”
Mom knew.
thud!
And Jang Tae-san’s acting started.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan~♫.
Yagudin’s pre-game background music, ‘The Man in The Mask’, sounds like a fantasy.
In the harsh wind, Jangtaesan started to run.
A man wearing an iron mask overcomes the cold wind of winter and runs wild.
He threw both hands vigorously and quickly ran on the ice.
The first jump that finally unfolds.
Jang Tae-san’s hand movements were perfect.
It was strong yet dynamic and soft at the same time.
Expressing another emotion with Kim Yuna, who plays a sad performance.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Jang Tae-san’s body flew up the ice.
and his body spinning.
The jump height was different.
Yuna Kim jumped and flew on the ice higher than any other male athlete she had ever seen.
High jumps always received extra points.
If the game had been played now, Jang Tae-san would have already secured additional points from the height and started.
Cheeralarat.
The body rotated in midair.
One, two, three….. four!
“Hut!”
“ah!”
Screams erupted from Yuna Kim and Mijeong Yeh at the same time.
The women performed an impossible quadruple flip.
An illusion as if all time was passing slowly overtook Yuna Kim.
A quadruple flip that I tried several times but couldn’t.
It wasn’t over.
A series of super toe loops.
That’s a quadruple toe loop!
The staggered Yuna Kim’s body shook with shock.
A quadruple flip and toe loop that far surpasses her own skills, the triple full lip and triple toe loop.
Indeed, the King of Ice has returned here.
The program was copying Sergey Yagudin, but all movements were of a different level.
Jang Tae-san’s body flew and turned freely in the air that humans could not occupy.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
The king’s gesture of running on the ice as rough as if he would break it even without music.
Watching blankly, Yuna Kim captured each of his movements.
And another jump followed.
Jang Tae-san’s body ran faster and more powerfully than ever before on the ice.
‘What are you trying to do!’
I already had enough skills to aim for a gold medal.
However, it seemed that there was a higher goal.
Jang Tae-san, who takes a stance before running.
According to the program, the current jump is the Axel jump.
wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Jang Tae-san’s body kicked off the ice again like a bird.
And…
his body soared high into the air and began to spin.
“!!!”
Yuna Kim’s eyes widen beyond measure.
Figure skating’s legendary Quantum Jump, which is said to be possible only if you stay in the air for more than 0.72 seconds.
The legend…..was shocking and perfectly revealed in front of Kim Yuna’s eyes.
“Quie quantuple…..”
A word that burst from Yemi-jung’s mouth.
Aww.
After jumping and landing as if nothing had happened, Jang Tae-san approached Kim Yuna.
Jang Tae-san smiles with no sign of tiredness at all.
I reached out my hand to Yuna Kim.
“…..”
Yuna Kim bit her lip hard.
The ice queen started running towards the ice king.
