Watching the Japanese couple made me cry really hard. They were literally like: We ranked the 8th in the short program, what else can we lose? Let's enjoy the moment and give it our all. And I felt the immense beauty and joy they internalized too! Truly BRAVO!

日本のりくりゅうについてのコメントでコメ欄が埋まっていて嬉しい！2人の演技に私も魅了されました…😭

Sui/Han and RikuRyu are my faves in the event and I'm SOOOOO PROUD OF THEM!!!!

The Japanese couple embodied every emotion, no dead face, and the athleticism was fluid grace in motion. Can't wait to see what they do next! Bravo!

Looking at the comments the Japanese couple has something special and a strong elegance! They are young, chances are they will be back next Olympics and even greater.

Let's show some love to Riku and Ryuichi! They were phenomenal!

Sui and Han well deserving gold class champions. They won both the short program as well as the free skate.. and they won it in their home soil - so double the victory and their tears of joy truly touching..stunning

You can tell how much the win means to the Chinese pair just by looking at how Han, who's always been in control and letting Sui be the one showing the emotions and expressions, crying his heart out in joy and pent-up release.

Congrats to the champions but I love the japanese pair Riku-Ryu, they smiled happily in the middle of their show making my tears fall... i hope they win medals in the next olympics ... 🥰

私は、日本のRIKU&RYUの演技に感動して泣いた! 私は、採点は解らないが、この二人に、金メダルをあげたい！

I looooove the Japanese pair Riku and Ryuichi! Hope to see them again next olympics 💕

I love the Japanese they are so fast in the ICE

What a beautiful performance by all pair skaters. No doubt the Chinese pair, Sui under rotated from the spin and got less scores, but made up the scores from other techniques. Undertand they were the only pairs who could do the quadruple twist, which no other pair had done since the 2018 Olympics. Well done Sui and Han, I see so much emotions and passions in your performance!!

That Japanese skater is so strong with his one-handed lifts and speed in and out of the transitions!

I like sui/han but riku/ryuichi pair will always be special to me.

I have watched their free skate several times and you can see when Miura Riku and Kihara Ryuichi (especially Kihara's agony is replaced with pure joy. Amazing and deeply touching. Tears in my eyes. Thank you Miura Riku and Kihara Ryuichi! See you in 4 years-let's go GOLD!

I love Japanese pair. so smooth and beautiful.

1:50:55 As soon as Riku-Ryu pair finished, they broke down and cried holding each other touched my heart so much. Thinking how much pressure they had been through, and now they are so relieved finishing the performance without any mistakes.

Japanese pair were amazing😍💕💕

I can't believe that the beautiful Japanese Coppell, not was number 5 😔 they're so amazing. I do not always understand the referee's/ judge way of giving points.

The pure simple love of skating that the Japanese pair have is why I LOVE this sport!

I’m glad that the most replay on this video is when Riku and Ryuichi did their beautiful program💖 . Me too, I replay it many several time🤣🤣 especially the throw loop and the last lift their smiles are just adoreble😍 I hope they do lively program next season!! Their smiles are the best!!

1:45:13~ Please enjoy the Japanese pair's performance🤩 We Japanese are really proud of them 🧡👏🏻👏🏻

Sui/Han❤️❤️, Tarasova/Morozov🙌🙌, Mishina/Galliamov❤️❤️, Riku/Ryuichi🔥🔥 were the best!

Glad to see how Sui and Han matured over the years. You can see it in their eyes how much it meant for them.

Sui and Han... you are simply stunning! I wonder how many people realise just how carefully choreographed your performance was. Your incredible techniques matched the lyrics of the song so perfectly in many places... what a joy it is to watch and rewatch your gold medal performance! You have done so much together and achieved so much. Congratulations!

Riku riyuchi ❤ that was so lit 🔥 rooting for them in worlds....new team with so much potential I hope they go only up from here....

Hey this pairs free skating is absolute legendary. We hardly see all top skaters performed almost completely like this in the same competition, but they did it on the OLYMPIC ICE!! The night, we should tell forever.

1:48:10 lovely entrance 🇯🇵🇯🇵❤❤

I was hoping the Japanese finish in the top five. I thought they had made mistakes but looking at this they skate very well.Maybe they can finish in the top five at world

I wonder how many people realise that by going last, Sui and Han had to skate on the rink that had been chopped up by all the other skaters before them. There would have been holes and ridges all over the surface making it more difficult for them! Well done to the gold medalists, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong!

りく＆りゅうペア最高でした(TT)♡♡

In respect of artistry performance, I like Sui/Han, Riku/Ryuichi and T/M. Their programs reached the audience

I love the Russian pair that came in second !! So emotional . They skate their best!! Yes , they didn’t ‘t win but they beat their demon . This pair has struggled for last four years .

O casal japonês me deixou em lágrimas ao fim da apresentação. 1:46:30

葱桶组合太棒了，看了十几遍了，依然感动，艺术感染力太强了，谢谢你们的表演

Tarasova/Morozov’s performance makes me very adorable , moved and delighted. I suppose that this is the most brilliant I’ve ever seen in Olympic 2022 .... That’s my feelings 🥰🥰.

Han Cong is such a beautiful peace gentleman! Sui Wenjing is a bravest girl!! You deserves the highest Olympic Gold medals 🥇 🏆⛸💯🀄️🇨🇳

Que hermosura lo de la pareja japonesa😍🥰🥰🥰

Sui and Han- so beautiful and emotional. That's what we want to see. Perfect.

So much to admire in this competition but really have to give a shout to Peng and Jin. These two have been in the shadows such a long time. They were teamed up in a very awkward way, with their federation shuffling them with their teammates ostensibly to give one of their most accomplished skaters a stronger partner. And that sorta worked for a bit but certainly didn’t produce the medals a lot of people thought. Meanwhile it felt these two were really being cast aside, even though they actually did match well physically. They were a decent pair but then didn’t even get out of the short program in Pyeongchang, which was shocking. They have never been the featured Chinese pair but they have steadily stuck around, clawed their way back over the past four years. 4th in the world one year, 5th last year. And then here, really the performance of a lifetime to be fifth at the Olympics in their home country. Really impressive . Seeing Shen Xue run into that group hug after the result came up showing Sui/Han had won, that brought tears to my eyes. 🥺😭😍 Ever so close but finally, finally they are Olympic champions.

Great job team Japan. Love their speed and their smile throughout the program. They deserve better music though to match their bubbling personality on the ice.

O casal chinês fez por merecer essa medalha de ouro, performance ousada, bela música e muita emoção. Eu também fiquei emocionado. Parabéns.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ...

Sui/Han campeões olímpicos em casa, fiquei toda emocionada com ela chorando logo após o fim da apresentação deles.

The japanese pairs were underscored.

Китайцы заслужили золото, японская пара тоже классно выступила!

Congrats to Sui/Han!!! Love your staking, high technical and stylish. Finally you got the gold medel under huge impression... So proud of you.

Sui's movements are so beautiful, Han projects a protective strength. He is the perfect foil to showcase her, they just dominate and Wow when they are on the ice.

Mas que merecido a medalha de ouro para sui/ han eles foram muito incríveis cara, eu fiquei emocionada junto com eles🇨🇳❤

Japanese ❤️ bravo, so beatiful performance 🤍

I feel so sorry for the German pair, the guy was ill. Hope they will continue skating and get better results soon!

I was deeply moved by hancong and sui wenjing'dance. fall into their performance for a long time

I wanna, this is a pretty high level and quality match for all the teams, almost no technical faults for top 5. I was touched by 🇨🇳 performance! Incredible

RikuRyu

Art and Sport at the highest level.

well deserved for the chinese pair. in 2018 olympics they lost the gold medal by 0.43 points, this olympics they won the gold medal by 0.63 points.

Poetry in motion...stunning, awesome! Well-deserved win!

Não tem como não se emocionar com essa apresentação!

虽然对手非常强大，但是隋韩组合仍然获得了他们应得的冠军，恭喜

China arrasou! Em 2018 ficaram com a prata diante da imbatível dupla alemã. Mas em 2022 conseguiram o tão sonhado ouro, e em casa! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

It's always breathtaking to watch figure skating in Winter Olympics! Congratulations to all of you! 💞

Fantastic. All participants are great and they are all champions.

Figure skating is above level, only the best have the skills. Thank you. ❤

Splendid Chinese Pairs Figure Skating!

Sui Wenjing/Han Cong's programme gave me goosebumps! 💗 Congratulations on winning the🏅medal. 🙂 China was happy that night. 🎉🎊 The way he put her on the podium was adorable! 💜

Watching the last two skates again you can’t help but admire the mental strength of Sui and Han. They heard the score for the Russian pair, they knew the next to none difference after the short. It was the same in Ice Dance, when the French couldn’t afford the slightest error after the results the Russians posted. I also noticed that the slight error on the second triple on the part of Sui appeared worse on the tv coverage live on CBC , probably because of camera angle. But the Quad twist made the difference here. And maybe the connection to the audience. Tarasova and Morozov don’t reach out enough ( matter of style, and taste ) But they skated beautifully and could just as easily have won.

Wonderful...In love This 葱桶组合！你们实在是太棒了！well done Sui/Han! What a beautiful piece!

I like gold and silver performances very much.They not only have super high technology, smooth performance, the key is that they cooperate with the music and put into the feelings, too moving！respect👍

amazing sportsmanship displayed by the athletes!

Uns dizem que a Rússia devia ter ganhado, mas a real é que há vários merecedores da medalha de ouro. E a dupla chinesa também mereceu e a sorte veio a favor deles igual ao casal francês do Ice dance. Pois essas duas duplas foram medalhistas de pratas na olimpíada passada e agora conquistaram o ouro.

Sui and Han undeniably a cut above

Looking forward to seeing more from the Georgian and Spanish teams in future! Sui/Han... incomparable.

Китайцы катались на разрыв Как же я за них рада🤗😍🙂

TARASOVA/MOROZOV組にも涙したし、SUI/HAN組にも涙しました。 2組とも独創的で、漂う空気感、溢れ出る感情、全てが素晴らしすぎて夢見心地になる。

Os chineses deram uma aula de patinação! O que foi isso 😍😍😍 merecido demais esse ouro

Hermoso todos unos grandes profesionales felicidades.

1:45:35

Loveliest podium ever - congratulations to the champions!

Best figure skating competition of the Olympics!

Knierim/Frazier were so amazing, what an emotional performance 💜

Has anyone else noticed there were fragments cut from Georgia's programme, from China's programmes and from ROC's first one?

I love watching the warmup. As the couples are all zipping along on the ice preparing for their upcoming performance when anything is possible!

Beautiful music, interpretation and performance. Like really these two

The japanese pair omggg besutifulll

Sui and Han you are the best pairs of skaters in the world.

Jean-Luc dancing at 1:44:33 is my spirit animal

SUI/HAN OLYMPIC CHAMPIONS❤️🥇

2:22:38 These eyes grow Olympic champions in all categories of figure skating💥

Love Radford and James. They have come a long way in a short time. Look forward to more and better.

葱桶组合！你们实在是太棒了！well done Sui/Han! What a beautiful piece!

Ice skating has been a means of human transportation for thousands of years, appearing between four thousand and five thousand years ago. Rather than being an activity done for leisure, ice skating was first used to make traveling across the landscape of cold climates areas easier. A fascinating study by Federico Formenti and Alberto E. Minetti calculated that ice skating across a frozen river could save up to ten percent of energy compared to walking. Early ice skates were made from flattened bone, strapped to the bottom of the foot. In the thirteenth century, ice skates began to look a little more like we know them today, with Dutch inventors being the first to introduce steel blades. The steel blades were edged, making the ice skates much more efficient, conserving even more energy than their bone predecessors. The first-ever skating club was opened in Edinburgh in 1742, and the oldest surviving book on figure skating, 'Treatise on Skating', was written in 1772 by Robert Jones. In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century, it was common to find skaters on the Serpentine River, a recreational lake in Hyde Park. John Felltham, who wrote his 'Picture of London' in 1810, stated "In the time of frost... the Canal in St. James' Park, and the Serpentine River...are covered with skaters". Although it was more common to find men ice skating than women, there is evidence to suggest that women were permitted to ice skate. A newspaper article published in The Morning Post on the 19th of January 1810 stated that "the gentlemen were decidedly excelled by the lady, who cut out the letters O.P with a truly astonishing precision and neatness".

Loved Sui and Han!! So well-deserved

I love some of the song choices 😊 gosh! How do they choose a song…. there are so many… wonderful, beautiful, epic, moving, rhythmic, wistful, joyful, happy, quirky, soulful… how do they pick one? Sometimes there is a performance, when on the day, everything comes together, the participants , the song, their technique, results in coming first… oh! And the judges opinion… not always matching the audience opinion 😊

Молодцы!заслужили золото!

Parabéns ao casal Chinês:)eles mereceram 👍👏🤝Linda apresentação 🤩Me emocionei c ela chorando no final ,c certeza ela SABE a luta q foi ganhar esse Ouro 😍🤝🙏 Os russos sem nenhuma Humildade como sempre 🤨
