General
DISCIPLINE FOCUS
She says she enjoys the bouldering discipline the most, despite being encouraged to focus on speed climbing. "A lot of people around me tell me to keep up the speed climbing that I'm currently getting good results in [speaking in 2021] as my main sport, but actually, I'm more interested in bouldering. Even on the same course [in bouldering], each climber has a different hold method, climbing posture, and strategy, so it's fun. The process itself is truly enjoyable. In order to become the best, you have to focus on one thing, so you have to decide on your main event as quickly as possible." (Seoul Sports Council Naver blog, 06 Dec 2021)
