One of my favorite ballerinas: Sue Jin KANG

Sue Jin Kang is a very good ballet dancer and she practices very hard.
I think her husband is Italian. She is 42 years old and she said that if she wakes up in the morning and her body doesn't hurt, it means she didn't train hard enough.

When her body is tired, she thinks she can't practice. But she puts her Pointe shoes on.
She goes to the practice room and she feels really happy.

When we practice everyday, we have to think pain is our friend.
She competes against herself and everyday she gets a little bit better. She thinks it is exciting. She doesn't like the word "rest".

She's beautiful but her toes are very hard and ugly. She uses 250 pairs of  Pointe shoes every 10 months.

In 2007 she got the John Cranko prize.
