Career

Early years

Lim began skating in 2009.[5] She started training with Chi Hyun-jung as her coach in 2014.[6]

Nationally, Lim started competing at the senior level during the 2014-15 figure skating season. She obtained the bronze medal at the 2016 South Korean Championships, finishing behind You Young and Choi Da-bin.

2016–2017 season: Junior international debut and national title

Lim at the 2017 World Junior Championships.

Lim debuted on the Junior Grand Prix (JGP) series in September 2016, placing 4th in Ljubljana, Slovenia. In October, she received the bronze medal at a JGP event in Dresden, Germany. In January 2017, she won her first senior national title.[7] In March, Lim placed 4th overall at the 2017 World Junior Championships, scoring personal bests in every segment of the competition in her ISU championship debut.

2017–2018 season: Second JGP medal

Lim started off the season with a silver medal at the Asian Open Trophy in August. In September, she received the silver medal at JGP Salzburg, Austria with a score of 186.34. She surpassed her old record, with a difference of almost six points. In her next JGP event, in Gdansk, she received a score of 58.60, after struggling on the first spin of her program, and an edge warning on her opening combination, a triple flip-triple toe loop. In the free skate, she received another unclear edge in her flip jump, and popped a triple toe loop in her double axel, triple toe loop combination. Lim later suffered a fall on a triple salchow, along with a jump repetition violation on her double axel, double toe loop combination near the end of her program, after doing it again halfway through her program. With a final score of 162.58, she placed fourth overall, losing her chance of making it to the Junior Grand Prix Final.

Lim announced at the beginning of December that she was diagnosed with a fracture on her right big toe.[8]

In January, she placed third at the national championships. Lim was subsequently named as part of Korea's team to the 2018 World Junior Championships. She would go on to place 5th in the short program and 6th in the free skate to finish 5th overall.

On April 18th, it was reported that she would be moving to California to train with Rafael Arutyunyan.[9]

2018-2019 season: Senior international debut

In the 2018-2019 season, Lim started off with a win at the 2018 CS Asian Open Trophy, placing first in the short program and second in the free. She scored a personal best in the short program with a score of 68.09.
