I'm extremely well recognized in Korea just because of what I do on the ice, and there is a lack of that in Canada because hockey is our sport and it will be for eternity.
From Patrick Chan
I skate just to satisfy my own desire and not care about other people's desire for me to do well.
I'm not good at multitasking.
I hope I can compete in one or two Olympics in my career. Of course I would like to win a medal, but just being there would be awesome.
I'm not a big traveller.
Paris is beautiful, but nothing beats home.
In skating or any amateur sport, as athletes we share something in common: the cost of training is quite a burden on our parents or on the athletes themselves trying to find a way to pay for their costs.
My parents are very good parents and have already said that they will look after me until the end of my skating career.
I know that, in hockey, the object of the game is simple in that you have to get the puck into the net. With figure skating, it's not as simple, and there is a ton of work that goes into it.
Injuries are a huge thing for skating. I think skating is a very unnatural sport for the body, very tough on the joints.
