Yuna Kim Cries After 2014 All That Skate Farewell Show Performance [VIDEO]: 'Frozen,' 'Send In The Clowns,' And 'Nessun Dorma'!

Yuna Kim recently skated her final farewell show at the 2014 "All That Skate," and even the "Queen" couldn't help but get emotional.

The 2014 "All That Skate" ice show in Seoul took place from May 4 to May 6, and served as the farewell show for Yuna Kim. Guest figure skaters included Alexei Yagudin, Stephane Lambiel, Denis Ten, Yan Han, Tatiana Volosozhar and Maxim Trankov, and Aliona Savchenko and Robin Szolkowy.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the show began with a silent tribute to the victims of the South Korea ferry tragedy. Then, Yuna Kim performed several programs ranging from "Frozen" to her Olympic Sochi short program.

In addition, Yuna Kim also debuted a new program choreographed by David Wilson specifically for her farewell show. The music is from the Puccini opera Turandot, called "Nessun Dorma."

During the press conference following her final show, Yuna Kim teared up and got very emotional.

“This is really the last. I am not a member of the national team anymore but I will continue showing you good sides [of me] with other activities," said Yuna Kim to her fans. "Since they became more competent and started getting recognized in the international competitions, I hope they set their goals higher.”

“Everyone around me is crying, which makes me teary too. I lived as a skater for such a long time…and when I look back, it makes me [emotional and] want to cry.”
