Kim Eun-jung (born November 29, 1990), nicknamed "Annie",[1] is a South Korean curler from Uiseong. She currently skips her own team on the World Curling Tour. Kim skipped the national team from 2016 to 2018 and represented Korea on home ice at the 2018 Winter Olympics, where her team won a silver medal.[2]

Career

[edit]

As a junior skip, Kim led South Korea to three straight silver medals at the Pacific-Asia Junior Curling Championships.[3] In 2010, she lost in the final to China's Liu Jinli,[4] in 2011 she lost to Japan's Sayaka Yoshimura,[5] and in 2012 she lost to Yoshimura again.[6][7]

Right after juniors in April 2012, Kim earned her first non-junior national title at the South Korean Curling Championships, held every spring to qualify the winner as the national team for the following season. At the 2012 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships, the South Korean team skipped by Eun-jung finished in third place after losing the semifinal to Japan's Satsuki Fujisawa, and therefore failed to qualify for the world championships.[8]

After failing to win the championship in 2013, Kim captured the national championship again in April 2014. At the 2014 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships, she skipped South Korea to an unbeaten 8–0 round robin record and a semifinal win over New Zealand. However, in the final, she lost against China's Liu Sijia on an extra-end steal, narrowly missing a berth to the world championships.[9] Later that season, her Korean team competed at the 2015 Winter Universiade where they lost in a tiebreaker to Switzerland's Michèle Jäggi.[10]

Despite not winning the national championship for the 2015–16 season, they had a great season on the World Curling Tour. They won three tour events to start the season, the AMJ Campbell Shorty Jenkins Classic,[11] Canad Inns Women's Classic[12] and the Uiseong International Curling Tour. They also competed in four Grand Slam of Curling events and reached the semifinals of the 2015 Tour Challenge, where they lost to Rachel Homan.[13] They finished seventh on the money list for the season, with $61,617.[14]

In April 2016, Kim Eun-jung claimed her third national championship by beating a high school curling team skipped by Kim Min-ji in the final.[15] At the 2016 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships, her South Korean team went through the round robin with a 6–1 record and once again won the semifinal over New Zealand.[16] Then in the final, she defeated China's Wang Bingyu to capture her first Asia-Pacific title.[17] This qualified her South Korean team for the 2017 World Women's Curling Championship, her first World Championship. They finished the round robin with a 5–6 record, failing to advance to the playoff round.

In May 2017, Kim Eun-jung defended her national title at the 2017 South Korean Curling Championships, which also served as trials for the 2018 Winter Olympics, by winning the best-of-seven final over Kim Min-ji's junior team 4–1 after defeating Gim Un-chi in the best-of-five semifinal 3–2. This qualified her and her longtime squad of vice Kim Kyeong-ae, second Kim Seon-yeong and lead Kim Yeong-mi for their first Olympic berth, which they had missed four years before with a loss to Kim Ji-sun in the final of the 2013 South Korean Curling Championships. Later that year, Kim and her team defended their title at the 2017 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships, going a perfect 12–0 through the tournament.[18]

The 2018 Olympic curling team of skip Kim Eun-jung, vice Kim Kyeong-ae, second Kim Seon-yeong, lead Kim Yeong-mi and alternate Kim Cho-hi, coached by Peter Gallant of Canada, received celebrity status for their strong performances despite entering the tournament as underdogs.[19] Korea topped the round robin standings with just one loss to Pacific-Asian rivals Satsuki Fujisawa. Their wins included defeating heavily favoured Canada, Great Britain, and Sweden.[20] They then advanced to the final by defeating Japan in an extra end before losing to Sweden to claim the silver medal.[21] They also gained international recognition due to fans dubbing them the "Garlic Girls" since they all came from Uiseong which was long known for its garlic production but has recently become Korea's curling capital.[22] Since all five team members share the same surname Kim, and as their actual names are hard to pronounce, the team members adopted breakfast-themed nicknames: Sunny (a reference to Sunny side up eggs[23]), Steak, Pancake, Annie (a brand of yogurt) and ChoCho (a type of cookie).[24] Kim Eun-jung "Annie" is also known for her owl-eyed glasses.[25][26] The following month, the team played in the 2018 World Women's Curling Championship where they qualified for the playoffs with an 8–4 record.[27] In the quarterfinals, they lost to the United States' Jamie Sinclair, eliminating them from contention.[28]

The "garlic girls" did not play much during the 2018–19 season, amidst a coaching scandal, which involved the country's sport federation vice president verbally abusing the team and taking prize money away from them.[29] As she was preparing to give birth, Kim Eun-jung did not play in the 2019 WCT Arctic Cup with her team, the last event of the season.[30] Alternate Kim Cho-hi played lead as the rest of the team moved up the line-up a position. They finished with a 1–3 record, missing the playoffs.[31]

Team Kim returned to the World Curling Tour for the 2019–20 season, but Eun-jung would not play in their first few events. With Kim Kyeong-ae skipping, her team qualified for the playoffs at the 2019 Cameron's Brewing Oakville Fall Classic, the 2019 Stu Sells Oakville Tankard and finished runner-up at the inaugural WCT Uiseong International Curling Cup.[32] Her first event back on the ice was the 2019 Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic where she threw second rocks but still called the team. They reached the quarterfinals, losing to Kerri Einarson. Team Kim also made it to the quarterfinals at the 2019 Canad Inns Women's Classic the week after, where she returned to throwing skip stones. They made it to the final of the 2019 Changan Ford International Curling Elite and finished fourth at the 2019 China Open in December 2019.[33] In the new year, they had a quarterfinal finish at the International Bernese Ladies Cup and they won the Glynhill Ladies International.[34] It would be the team's last event of the season as both the Players' Championship and the Champions Cup Grand Slam events were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[35]

Kim and her rink began the abbreviated 2020–21 season by winning their national championship at the 2020 Korean Curling Championships.[36] After finishing 6–0 through the round robin, her team defeated Kim Min-ji 6–5 in the 1 vs. 2 page playoff game and won 7–5 over Gim Un-chi in the championship final. Their win qualified them to represent Korea at the 2021 World Women's Curling Championship. The team had a slow start, losing their first four games before going 7–2 in their final nine games. Their 7–6 record placed them seventh after the round robin, not enough to qualify for the playoffs and the 2022 Winter Olympics.[37] The team also changed home clubs during the season, switching from the Uiseong Curling Club to the Gangneung Curling Centre after their contract expired with the Gyeongsangbukdo Sports Council.[38]

Team Kim began the 2021–22 season at the 2021 Korean Curling Championships in June, which also doubled as the selection event for the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, China.[39] Through the event, the team posted a strong 11–1 record, once again securing the national title.[40] The team also won their next event, the 2021 Alberta Curling Series: Saville Shoot-Out in September, after an undefeated record.[41] Elsewhere on tour, the team reached the semifinals of both the 2021 Sherwood Park Women's Curling Classic and the 2021 Masters Grand Slam event.[42] In international play, Team Kim represented South Korea at the 2021 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships. The team finished the round robin with a 5–1 record, tied with Japan. Japan had a better draw shot challenge record, forcing Korea into a semifinal match against Kazakhstan. Team Kim beat Kazakhstan but lost to Japan in the gold medal game, settling for silver.[43] Because they had failed to qualify for the Olympics at the 2021 World Championship, the team then had to play in the Olympic Qualification Event to qualify South Korea for the 2022 Winter Olympics. Kim led her rink to a 6–2 round robin record, putting them into the playoffs. There, they lost to Japan in their first game but rebounded to beat Latvia in their second, qualifying Korea for the Winter Games.[44] At the Olympics, the team could not replicate their success from PyeongChang 2018 and finished the event in eighth with a 4–5 record. The team had much more success at the 2022 World Women's Curling Championship. They finished the round robin with a 9–3 record, in second place.[45] This gave them a bye to the semifinals, where they beat the host Canadian team skipped by Kerri Einarson.[46] This put them into the gold medal game where they played Switzerland, skipped by Silvana Tirinzoni. The team was not as successful against the Swiss, losing to them 7–6, settling for the silver medal, Korea's best-ever finish at the Worlds.[47] A few weeks later, the team wrapped up their season at the 2022 Champions Cup, where they lost in a tiebreaker to Einarson.

In June 2022, at the 2022 Korean Curling Championships, Team Kim lost their spot as the national team. After a 5–1 record, the team lost both the semifinal and bronze medal game to Chuncheon City Hall and Jeonbuk Province respectively.[48] It was their first time not reaching the podium in over a decade. They began their tour season at the 2022 Stu Sells Toronto Tankard where they lost in the semifinals to Team Tirinzoni.[49] The next week, they played in the first Slam of the season, the 2022 National, where they went 1–3.[50] After failing to qualify again at the 2022 Western Showdown, the team found success at the 2022 Tour Challenge as they qualified for the playoffs as the second seeds. They then lost to Gim Eun-ji in the quarterfinals.[51] They also lost to Team Gim in the quarterfinals of their next event, the Stu Sells Brantford Nissan Classic after previously being undefeated.[52] At the 2022 Masters, the team again missed the playoffs with a 1–3 record.[53] They ended their season early at the 2022 Karuizawa International Curling Championships where they qualified for the playoffs with a 2–1 record. After beating Sayaka Yoshimura 7–5 in the semifinal, they won 5–4 over Kerri Einarson to secure the event title.[54]

The following season, Team Kim finished second to Team Gim at the 2023 Korean Curling Championships, again not qualifying as the national team.[55] Despite this, the team had one of their best tour seasons to date. After two quarterfinal and one semifinal finish, they won the 2023 Stu Sells Tankard, defeating Sayaka Yoshimura 6–5 in the final.[56] They followed this up with a semifinal finish at the 2023 Players Open which included a quarterfinal win against world champions Silvana Tirinzoni. In October, the team won six straight games to claim the 2023 Tour Challenge Tier 2 title.[57] They won their third event the following month in Uiseong, defeating Team Gim in the final of the Uiseong Korean Cup. After losing the final of the 2023 Karuizawa International to Ikue Kitazawa, Team Kim bounced back immediately with an undefeated run at the 2023 Western Showdown.[58] After a 4–0 round robin record, they beat Gim, Isabella Wranå and Jolene Campbell in the quarterfinals, semifinals and final respectively. They then played their first Tier 1 Slam event of the year, the 2023 Masters, where they lost in a tiebreaker to Tabitha Peterson.[59] In the new year, they did qualify at the 2024 Canadian Open before a loss to Tirinzoni in the quarterfinals.[60] At the 2024 International Bernese Ladies Cup, the team made it to another final before losing to rivals Team Gim.[61] They finished their season at the 2024 Players' Championship with another quarterfinal loss to Tirinzoni.[62] After beginning the season in twenty-seventh place, Team Kim ranked seventh at the end of the 2023–24 season.[63]

Personal life

[edit]

Kim graduated from Uiseong Girls' High School, which has produced many talented curlers in educational cooperation with the Uiseong Curling Center. She also graduated from Daegu University. She had her son Seo-Ho in June 2018 and married that summer.[64]
