Anyeonghaseyo!
Who’s
excited with the upcoming event 2018 Winter Olympics?
Okay,
that would be me! I am so excited because 2018 Winter Olympic will be hosted by
PyeongChang – South Korea! The Winter Olympic will be held in Korea for the
first time in 30 years after Seoul Olympic Games in 1988.
PyeongChang is located in Gangwondo Province. It’s a centre of winter sports in Korea, where visitors can experience not only exciting winter sports but also other seasonal entertainment. The 2018 Winter Olympics will feature 102 events in 15 sports.
The
events are gathered around 2 main venues. The PyeongChang Mountain Cluster
focused on the Alpensia Resort will host outdoor sport, while the Coastal City
of Gangneung will host indoor sport.
All
competition venues of Olympic Winter Games are located within 30 minutes within
driving distance from PyeongChang Olympic Stadium.
Soohorang
is the mascot of 2018 Winter Olympics. It’s a white tiger which has been
considered as the guardian animal. Sooho means protection in Korean. And Rang,
comes from the middle letter of Ho-Rang-I is Korean word for tiger.
One of the main reason why I am so excited about the PyeongChang Winter Olympic 2018, is because I've been there before. Yes, I was at PyeongChang Alpensia Resort!
It was early summer in June 2012. Flowers everywhere! So I kept saying over and over again, "It feels like in a drama!"
I really felt like I was the main character in a drama, seriously hahaha.
So we went to Alpensia Resort, and there was a Ski Lift. I didnt really remember, who had this crazy idea to ride the Ski Lift, because it wasn't in the schedule.
I am sure that my face suddenly turned pale, because everybody was trying to persuade me hahaha. They make sure that everything was perfectly safe, so even though I was so scared , I decided to do it anyway.

Do we really need to do this? |

We had to ride the alpine coaster to go down the hill |
Well, riding the ski lift was quite scary for me, but at least we can do it together. But I had to ride the alpine coaster alone! When they gave us instruction, how to brake, to push and to pull, I started to feel like : please take me home and let me hide under the blanket hahaha.
Finally I did it! But strangely, it wasnt as scary as I thought before. Actually I had so much fun and I couldnt stop smiling.
I am so glad that I finally had the courage to do those things. It was a good decision. Despite all my fear, deep in my heart I know that If I didn't do it I will regret it for the rest of my life.
It became a beautiful and heartwarming memory for me! Wonderful memories, about wonderful place with wonderful friends!
PyeongChang will always have a special place in my heart.
