My Take
Choi Da-bin's career sits in a quietly impressive spot for me. South Korea's figure skating spotlight has been dominated by Yuna Kim's legacy, so being the 2017 Asian Winter Games champion and cracking the top ten at the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics on home ice took real nerve. At just 155 cm she had to generate everything through precision rather than power. I find her record of multiple national medals and Four Continents top-ten finishes admirable precisely because it never came with much fanfare. She's the kind of athlete who carried the weight of a host nation's expectations and skated her programs cleanly when it mattered most.
