South Korean figure skating star Kim Yu-na said on Monday she will not compete for Grand Prix titles later this year due to her busy schedule promoting the country's bid for the 2018 Winter Olympics.
Kim, on arrival home from the World Figure Skating Championships in Moscow, said she needs "breathing time" and will be busy until July on promoting Pyeongchang's Olympics bid.
"I don't think I can handle as much in the next season as I did in the previous seasons," the 20-year-old said.
The reigning Olympic champion finished second in the women's figure skating event on Saturday behind Japan's Miki Ando.
