Personal life
Kim was born in 1990 in
Bucheon,
Gyeonggi and moved to
Gunpo when she was six years old. She trains in South Korea and the United States.
In 2008, Kim was baptized as a Catholic alongside her mother, taking the saint's name Stella. In 2009, Kim enrolled at Korea University as a Physical Education major.
The correct transcription of her name from Korean script would be 'Kim Yeona'. However, when she applied for her passport, she intended to write her name as 'Yun-a', but the official mis-wrote her name as 'Yu-na'. In Hangul, 'Yu-na' would properly be spelled "유나" and not "연아." From the 2010-2011 season, her name was registered as 'Yuna Kim' at ISU profile.

He said "It hasn't affected Brian's coaching, and it certainly hasn't affected my training." Kim posted an online message accusing Orser of lying. She stated on her official website that they had been maintaining an awkward and ambiguous relationship for months and that she was perplexed by Orser's announcement.
