英语文摘:S Korea's star figure skater Kim Yu-na looks beyond Olympics

While the record-setting, immaculate display at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics is something she still can't quite believe, it has also left little more for the 19-year-old to reach out for, professionally.

Besides adding the medal to her resume, the South Korean ice darling has also won seven Grand Prix titles, three Grand Prix Final trophies and one world championship title since her senior international debut in 2006.

What can she possibly want now?

"Winning the Olympics had been the highest goal for me, so I'm not really thinking about any other goals at the moment. For now, I'd like to try performing many characters I couldn't previously play because of figure skating rules," Kim said. "I've achieved a lot of things in my life, but I'm still young."

Indeed, Kim is poised for new things. She is set to debut a hip hop program during the Samsung Anycall-Hauzen 2010 All That Skate Summer ice show, and has also expressed her interest in adding some Latin American flavor to her new short or long programs.

Hidden behind the glamour of being the top figure skating icon is her continuous efforts that never ceased since her first steps onto the ice at the age of seven, when her home country was virtually a figure skating wasteland.
