Hanyu’s first 3A success in an international competition should be the short program at the JGP Poland station in the 2009-10 season

After Hanyu practiced 3A, coach Nanami gave him an iPod (seems like It was his first iPod), with three A's engraved on it, and a message "never forget your original intention" was given to him. To this day, Hanyu has always maintained his fascination with music playing equipment and headphones, and still regards "never forget the original intention" as his motto.
