South Korean Olympic figure skater Kim Yu-na and one of America’s most successful skaters– Michelle Kwan stood together Thursday to promote the 2013 PyeongChang Special Olympics World Winter Games.

The Games will be held at Korea’s winter sports hub in PyeongChang, and will include seven sports and 59 sub-events. More than 3,000 athletes and coaches from 113 countries are expected to participate.

Kim said: “Nothing is determined yet on an ice show (for the closing ceremony) featuring Kwan and me, but I am positive about it. If I am with Michelle Kwan (in an ice show) for other Olympians, it will be an unforgettable experience.”
