Kwak Min Jeong, a former South Korean figure skater, once went viral for her idol-like visuals.
Kwak Min Jeong is a 1994 liner, born on January 23. She was 24 years old when her beauty became a hot topic online.

She also participated in the 2010 Winter Olympics and placed 13th in the ladies event.
Unfortunately due to multiple injuries suffered between 2012 and 2014, she could not compete and ultimately retired from competition in 2015.
Due to her amazing skills and visuals, many people anticipated her return when news broke that she would be a commentator for the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics.
Since retiring from professional skating, Kwak Min Jeong has been living her best life. She married basketball player Moon Seong Gon in May 2021…
…and looked absolutely gorgeous in her wedding photos.
After years away from the ice rink, she returned in 2020 for a series of episodes of Playing Sister that focused on figure skating.
But that too, was six years ago. She is now actually back on the ice training the future generations of figure skaters in Korea, teaching at the iconic ice rink at Lotte World!
