Storyline


The organizing committee of the upcoming 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympic Games held a press conference Tuesday in the host city, introducing preparations for the opening and closing ceremony for the first time.

The 23rd Winter Olympics will be held from Feb 9 to 25, with Song Seung-whan acting as director for the ceremonies.

Song said at the press briefing that the opening ceremony will focus on the theme of "harmony" and "integration", aiming to show traditional and modern culture of South Korea and express the wishes of South Koreans for peace.

He said that the turbulent situation of the Korean Peninsula as well as hostility between South Korea and DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) get the South Koreans even more desperate to peace and make them more eager to deliver the belief of peace to everywhere in the world.

As to the closing ceremony, Song said it will focus on spirit of challenging and emphasize that this Olympics is not the end but the beginning.

"As the next Winter Olympics is to be held in Beijing, so after the flag of the games is passed to Beijing, there will be an eight-minute performance. The general director of Beijing Winter Olympics is Zhang Yimou. He came to Seoul three months ago and detailedly communicated with us in the office of the organizing committee about the performance, technical cooperation between us and rehearsal time," said Song.
