The 2018 Winter Olympics at PyeongChang, South Korea, has finally begun and despite concerns about what's happening now in South Korea, the Games has begun as they planned.
Flagbearers for the 91 National Olympic Committees and the Olympic Athlete from Russia delegation took part in the opening ceremony of the 23rd Winter Games and in a midst display of Korean culture from the past and the present as seen by the mass audience gathered at the host city's Olympic Stadium, it's a rare opportunity to see the two Koreas going together under their unified Korean flag, a sign that there is hope between the North and the South, torn between endless conflicts and repressive regimes year after year.
With the historic opening ceremony wrapped up, the Games truly begun as for the next 16 days, competitors across the globe will compete in 15 sports and 102 medal events. Welcome to PyeongChang 2018!
