Perscitaten:
Ballet 2000, 31 mei 2007
Marc Haegeman on La Bayadère: With Larissa Lezhnina, Artem Yachmennikov and Ji-Young Kim as the leading trio, Dutch National came about as close to a St. Petersburg-schooled performance it will ever get.

Dance Europe, mei 2007
Maggie Foyer on La Bayadère: Ji-Young Kims was a chilling Gamzatti. If looks could kill there would be no need for that wretched snake, and her strong characterisation managed to cover some of the technical glitches.
