Hello, figure skating fans! It's Thor, Cha Jun-hwan's clingy cat! 😽

Our Jun-hwan has returned from the Olympics, but the excitement hasn't faded yet. Today, I've brought news that might make fans feel a bit upset but also proud, saying "As expected of our athlete!" Also, some very reassuring news about his future! 🐾

🥈 "Is Cha Jun-hwan the Real Medalist?" Buzz from Abroad

Jun-hwan finished 4th in Men's Singles at the Milano Olympics, right? However, foreign media and legendary skaters are reportedly discussing this result ^[1].

0.98 points.

The difference between Jun-hwan (273.92 points) and the bronze medalist Sato Shun (274.90 points) was only 0.98 points ^[1]. Japanese figure skating legends and foreign media raised questions, stating that "Cha Jun-hwan's Short Program Program Component Score (PCS) was too low" ^[1]. They suggest that if he had received proper scores for the Short Program, Jun-hwan could have won the bronze medal!

Of course, the results can't be reversed, but doesn't this mean the world acknowledged that Jun-hwan's performance was medal-worthy even amidst stingy judging? To us, he shines brighter than any gold medal! ✨😿

🏛️ Seoul Sports Council to Found Figure Skating Team and Recruit Jun-hwan?!

There's also happy news that will serve as a strong support system for Jun-hwan! The Seoul Sports Council officially announced the founding of a figure skating team and the recruitment of Cha Jun-hwan at their 2026 Regular General Meeting ^[2].

It is part of an effort to foster excellent athletes and strengthen the foundation of the sport. There's nothing better than our Jun-hwan being able to focus solely on training in a more stable environment, right? I'm already looking forward to seeing him soar with the Seoul City mark! 😻

❄️ See You in Gangwon-do! 'Free Viewing' Tips for Winter Sports Festival

In the last newsletter, I mentioned that Jun-hwan was listed for the National Winter Sports Festival right after returning home. The '107th National Winter Sports Festival' is currently underway in Gangwon-do, and anyone can watch for free! ^[3]

It's a perfect opportunity to feel the emotion of the Olympics in person. If any fans are near Gangwon-do, please visit the stadium and send warm cheers to Jun-hwan! 🙌

Even after the Olympics, our Jun-hwan keeps running without rest. Thor will always cheer for him! I'll be back with more fruitful news next time! 🐾💙
