So beautiful. Gorgeous artistry, strength yet delicate and a beauty for the ages.

[dizzymindy]

This has to be one of the most beautiful programs ever, the artistry, the emotion she brought, the grace, it’s a stunning program.

[will-kvcw]

This is the most beautiful and touching moment I've ever seen in figure skating. Lu Chen is in a class of her own in terms of artistry and elegance.

[alexsdb]

Back in 98 Nagano and today, I still would give Lu Chen a 6.0 in artistic impression, and being number one in artistry for the ladies event.

[heidicakes]

She has always been one of my favorite skaters. She skates with so much elegance. I'm glad that she has gone on to coach.

[GreySox]

The attempted 3toe-3toe at the end was insane. Must have been improvised. Glad she didn't fall. It would have dampened the overall emotional impact.

[singsongeric]

She really laid it all out there that night - I think this was the only (?) time in her career that she went for a 7-triple program, and with a Hail Mary 3/3 attempt way at the end as well. She held nothing back.

But jumps aside, for me it was all about the elegant simplicity in her skating and her artistry. I'm so glad the judges recognized it and gave her the respectable marks even if she wasn't favored to win a medal.

Not only a great ice skater but also a great story teller. Love the butterfly lover's story.

Still the most beautiful free program ever.. Such elegance, such musicality and such a stunning choreo. Beautiful music too. Wonderful to see it again, still love it.

[ellen]

The music, Butterfly Lover is almost the first orchestra every Chinese has listened in our life. She must have been under tons of pressure. Despite minor imperfection，this is still my favorite free skating！

[Dylvente]

It's nice to see brilliant artistry rewarded in the marks. Often in a performance that was not technically superior (and she had several problems here) the judges would unfairly penalize the athlete on the artistic mark as well. Here they got it right.

[alone-ttdgicf]

I almost cry to see her Chinese dance( figure skatting) of soul with Chinese song. What a beautiful lady!... from India.
N. B: I have seen all her interviews. All wish for you lady Lu... You are our Asian heroine.

[tuonghoang]

most beautiful skater ever. i am biased.

[BrentWolgamott]

I forgot how that last 3T/3T was basically completed on the ice. LOL. She snuck that foot around. Ah, the good old days. :-)

[marylizakowski]

Her performance was great, but even though it's not my favorite performance by a figure skater, I will go so far to say that no figure skater has ever reached this level of physical beauty as Lu Chen was during this performance.
Her beauty is breathtaking.

[dashoverton]

Artistically exquisite! What a comeback!

[taranehrasti]

Brilliant Choreography 💖
Still my all time favourite performances ❤️

[thomstephens]

Her 96 worlds performances are the icing on her career cake. I was thrilled for this finish but she did have a few near misses...great skater!

[keencroc]

She is just like floating on ice. Her motion is like liquid.

[willlsn]

it is better not to look too closely at the landings of her jumps
