South Korea's top women's singles figure skater, Lee Hae-in (Korea University), will swap her skates for a barista apron to meet fans.

Her agency, DJ Management, announced on March 25 that Lee will host a \"One-Day Barista with Fans\" event at Hollys Coffee's Sinchon Station branch on April 5, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. The session is limited to 40 pre-registered fans.

Under the one-day barista concept, Lee will personally prepare and serve drinks and take part in a Q&A and other fan interactions.

Proceeds from the event will be donated to a local infant care facility.

At her Olympic debut at the 2026 Milan–Cortina Games, Lee posted season-best scores in both the short program and the free skate, finishing eighth overall with a total of 140.49 points.

Her profile has been rising—she was recently nominated in the Best Costume category at the ISU Figure Skating Awards, organized by the International Skating Union (ISU).
