K-pop princess
Like other athletes, Russian figure-skating star Evgenia Medvedeva lists her athletic accomplishments on the bios of her social media accounts.
“Two times World, European and Russian national champion 2016-2017,” reads the first line of the 18-year-old’s Instagram and Twitter pages, followed by a gold medal and figure skate emoji. But another description — “EXOL” — reveals Medvedeva’s true passion off the ice. According to The Associated Press, Medvedeva listened to the South Korean-Chinese K-pop band Exo before her world-record short program during the team event Sunday. EXO-L is the “official global fan club” of Exo.
