- The queen of sports climbing, Kim Ja-in
Kim Ja-in, born to climbing enthusiasts, began sports climbing when she was
just in elementary school and demonstrated raw talent right from the get-go.
She won first place at a youth climbing competition in her freshman year in
middle school and in 2004, she was victorious at the Asia Championships,
topping the Asia ranking at the age of 16. Ten years have passed since then,
and she currently holds the title as the No. 1 sports climber in the world.
Standing 153cm tall and weighing 42kg, this tiny giant will surprise you with
her ferocity and physical strength shown during training and at competition.
She endures through rigorous training on a daily basis to maintain her
momentum and her hands and feet are covered with calluses attesting to her
hard work. Although sports climbing is physical and mentally draining, she is
not willing to give it up because that's where she finds true happiness. She
still recalls the moment when she climbed to the highest point among all the
climbers to win the gold medal at the Climbing World Championship in 2009. In
the recent years, she has been competing at about 18 competitions every year,
but despite her busy schedule, she has given her time to do buildering as a
charity event and become ann ambassador of sports climbing.
Be sure to tune into The INNERview to find out more about sports climbing
involving ascending an artificial rock wall while relying on just a rope and
learn about the struggles and achievements of the sports climbing phenom, Kim
Ja-in.
세계 스포츠 클라이밍계의 여제 '김자인 선수'
국내를 넘어 세계에서 단연 독보적인 존재로 알려진 스포츠클라이밍 '김자인 선수'
그녀는 클라이밍 마니아인 부모님 사이에서 태어나 초등학교 때부터 인공암벽을 쉽
게 접할 수 있었다고! 이후 빠른 성장 속도를 보이며 중학교 1학년 때 청소년 대회
에서 첫 우승을 거머쥐었고, 이어 실력이 점차 향상되자 일반부에 출전할 수 있게
되었다. 2004년 아시아 챔피언십 대회에서 1위를 차지하며 16살의 나이로 아시아
최고 선수의 자리에 오르게 된 그녀는 10년 후인 지금! 스포츠클라이밍 세계랭킹 1
위의 자리에 우뚝 선 한국 대표 클라이밍 선수다.
153cm의 작은키! 42kg의 여린 체구지만 평소 훈련할때면 그 열기는 뜨겁다. 하루만
쉬어도 감이 떨어지기 쉬운 클라이밍은 무엇보다 꾸준한 연습이 중요하기에, 하루
도 손과 발이 편할 날이 없다. 작고 딱딱한 암벽화를 신다보니 발가락엔 이미 굳은
살이 박힌 지 오래! 손가락 역시 몸의 무게를 버티다 보니 상태가 말이 아니다. 하
지만 그녀는 클라이밍에 몰입하는 그 순간이 가장 짜릿하기에 암벽을 오르는 것을
포기할 수 없다고! 2009년 세계 선수권 대회에서 첫 번째로 가장 높은 곳에 오르던
순간을 아직도 생생하게 기억하는 김자인! 매년 약 18개 대회에 출전하고 있다. 그
렇게 바쁜 일정에도 불구하고 어려운 이웃을 돕기 위한 재능기부 '빌더링' 그리고
국내에선 아직 비인기 스포츠인 클라이밍을 알리기 위해 고군분투 하는 그녀.
오로지 로프 하나에 몸을 의지해 인공암벽을 오르내리는 혹한훈련기와 국내 클라이
밍의 선구자로서 남다를 행보를 걷고 있는 그녀의 활약! 그리고 각종 대회를 준비
하며 겪었던 에피소드와 남모를 사연들! 끝으로 서울 한복판에서 아슬아슬한 빌딩
정복 그 생생한 현장까지 'The Innerview'에서 공개된다.
She is my number one idol, I really hope I'll be able to climb as stable and with the flow like her one dax *-*
Her climbing is poetry in motion. She inspires and teaches me something everytime I watch her videos! ♡♡♡
Really great interview, good questions, thanks for sharing this!
Thank you that was awesome...my favourite climber in the world.
Kim's smart, amazing, graceful and elegant in her climbing.
She's an absolutely beautiful human being and hands down the best climbing technique ever seen.
Much love from Australia 🧗🙏🙌💞
Kim Ja-in is so cute! 좋아해^_^
She so cute! I love watching her climbing. Always it’s look like dancing! 😍😍😍
Such a graceful climber and nice girl.
great answers! Inspiration.. queen of climbing
one of the best female climbers of all time, with unbelievable power to weight ratio and superb endurance. also one of the nicest person you could want to meet and talk to.
only this week I managed to climb a 5:12 so I am very weak compared to these professional climbers. Kim Ja-in gives so many people around the world such inspiration for the sport.
Its a good sport to do and you get to be strong, have fun and meet cool people. I wished the IFSC kept the 8 minute rule for lead climbing as Kim Ja-in was one of the best for the longer time frame climbing comps.
so nice to other people and so hard to herself, but maybe just hard to her body, her spirit is amazing.
whenever i hear about someone getting injured, i just cringe. thank goodness it was temporary; she's amazing!
very talented of course. very pretty too
마음가짐이 멋진 선수네요! 응원합니다 :)
She talks like she climbs. So tender.
증말 멋지다 !!
an incredible athlete and a world class cutie!! :)
Only one meal a day during competitions sounds really hard to manage. Impressive. 41:20
힘내주수길
The editing is super corny. But good questions.
자인아 .. 다 필요없다 이번 올림픽 우승하자
우승이란 단어 부담 부담 부담....
안전하게 경기를 했음 합니다
Pembawa acarany mirp qimberly
김자인은 남편을 잘못만났어
Kim Ja-in didn't meet her husband well.
Wait why is no one talking about 1:44?? Like I literally don't know what's going on there. Are the ends of her toes crinkly?
Jordan Sullivan Moght They explain in the interview that they are from her climbing shoes since they need to be super tight.
Holy cow..... that's definitely not how it should be
@satrsmndri yeah sure, my climbing shoes are also tight AF but my toes look pretty healthy compared to Jains toes
@@elfriederich I mean she is a top athlete so I guess it's normal, all of those years of work and competition has effect as well.
I think everyone's missing the point of your comment lol, it looks like a photo distortion thing... I hope lmao
What do you mean tiny? She's like the perfect sized petite asian babe
The beginning questions I guess make sense if someone literally has no knowledge about climbing at all but the stuff about shoes being tight and not wearing socks is like the first 5 minutes of climbing 101.
I think that she is incredibly selfish, she should get on a plane immediately and fly to Australia and teach me how to climb, honestly, how hard can it be!!!!???
Excellent climber but I wonder how those feet and shoes would smell after a hot day’s climb. No socks and a tight fit. Hmmm. Cheese anyone?
