Medvedeva will compete in the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics as part of the Olympic Athletes from Russia.
Fans have noted Medvedeva's love for Yuri!!! on Ice before, going so far as to toss a giant plush rice ball after her skate at the Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final in Marseille, in 2016, which looks similar to a present that protagonist Yūri Katsuki receives after a skate in the anime.
Medvedeva is also an avid fan of again during her performance at the Exhibition World Team Trophy 2017 in Tokyo last April. Her previous portrait on Instagram evoked the classic Sailor Moon pose.
