A tour around competition and non-competition venues of 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics

평창 올림픽 D-100 안전한 올림픽을 위한 시설(경기장) Setting everything right to have a world class sporting event in your back yard is no easy task. Curiosity peaks concerning the venues to welcome athletes and spectators. Is PyeongChang is ready to welcome the world? Cha Sang-mi updates us on the progress made with the Olympics facilities constructions. 2011,... South Korea's PyeongChang was named the host city of the 2018 Winter Olympics. And since then, the Korean government has been busy working to transform the mountainous county of PyeongChang into an Asian sports hub. After unceasing efforts, the region is now almost ready to welcome its Olympic guests. (KOREAN - ed: steve) "The construction of competition and non-competition venues is 99 percent complete. We plan to do our best to complete the venues during the remaining hundred days." The Games are held in two different areas: snow sports such as ski jumping and the biathlon will be held at the PyeongChang Mountain Cluster, and the ice sports such as curling and ice hockey will take place at the Gangneung Coastal Cluster. Altogether, the twelve competition venues and non-competition sites make up the "Winter sports belt". Here's a look at some of the major competition venues: The Gangneung Hockey Center has a capacity of 10-thousand-and-9, with nearly one-hundred-and-50 handicapped seats. (Stand-up) “The closest seats are just 1-point-6 meters from the rink, allowing the audience to even hear the sound of the players breathing.” Some good news for the athletes. The supplementary stadium is just 18 meters away from the venue, and twelve locker rooms allow participants to get enough rest, even on days with a full games schedule. The Alpensia Ski Jumping Center is where fans will see the mesmerizing sight of athletes souring through the air. The venue has been carefully thought-out to help the skiers prepare for their jumps. (KOREAN ed: steve) "Our venue has an athlete-centered design. It takes just 10 minutes to get here from the Athlete Village, and the routes are very compact, so they can focus on the Games." The Olympics organizing committee manager says they have prepared extra snow in case there's a thaw due to warm weather, and they've set up a large wind net to help shelter the athletes from the effects of the wind. And now to some of the non-competition venues... The Olympic Plaza will serve as a gathering place for the opening and closing ceremonies.
