At the 2025 Harbin Winter Asian Games, Jun-Hwan Cha won the first ever gold medal in Korean figure skating history and was granted military exemption! We've compiled everything that figure skating fans would have been curious about, including his family, parents' jobs, height, and even match videos.

1. Cha Jun-hwan, military exemption confirmed with Asian Games gold medal?
In the 2025 Harbin Winter Asian Games, Jun-Hwan Cha won the men's figure skating singles and will be exempted from military service (more precisely, enlisted as an 'arts and sports personnel')!

What is an arts and sports agent?

This is a system where athletes who have won 3rd place or higher in the Olympics or won gold medals in the Asian Games can receive 4 weeks of basic military training and continue exercising instead of serving in the military. Now that Cha Jun-hwan has received this benefit, he will be able to focus on figure skating without any burden until the Olympics, right?

In short, Cha Jun-hwan will not go to the military and continue figure skating!

2. Is the rumor about Cha Jun-hwan’s family & parents being dentists true?

Not true! There are rumors that Cha Jun-hwan's father is a dentist, but in reality, he is from a family of businessmen who run an LG dealership.

Studying abroad in Canada?
That's right! Cha Jun-hwan has been training in figure skating in Canada since he was young, and even before COVID, he was often in Canada for training. If they can support him for a long period of studying abroad, he must be from a wealthy family, right?
