AustralianFan 53 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 A week to go before we get to see what is planned to wrap up what so far has been a very successful Olympic Winter Games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ikarus360 599 Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Ceremony is called "Next Wave" and it seems it will focus on modern Korea and the future. I expect K-Pop will get more focus here. However, given the harsh weather of Pyeongchang, don't raise your hopes too much regarding the length of the show, we'll probably have another short two hours ceremony. Probably what everyone is looking forward to is the Beijing 2022 handover segment. The sole fact Zhang Yimou (the director of the universally acclaimed Beijing ceremonies) is doing it is almost a 100% guarantee it will be a high quality performance. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PikyoK 19 Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 I hope they give some reference to Hallyu at the Closing Ceremony. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SkiFreak 123 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 My sleep is all messed-up. Might as well stay up one last time. The ceremonies are on at 4am Calgary time. Better be some Gangnam Style in these ceremonies. Still have to watch the figure skating gala and the 4-man bobsled final. Time to refocus, reboot, and watch some Paralympics starting March 9. The next upcoming weeks here in Calgary should be interesting. It will be decision time on the 2026 bid. I hope the city goes for it. Why build facilities for one event, when you can get two out of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ikarus360 599 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Just woke up. I wish Claro Sports commentators would shut up sometimes. Also I can't believe OAR just won hockey. Truly the biggest upset of these games, if you ask me Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SkiFreak 123 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Cute so far, but Ivanka Trump? Our Prime Minister should be there, wearing traditional Korean clothing. And once again, CBC puts in a bunch of commercials. Hopefully it won't be the same during the replay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Olympian2004 511 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Wait, these Games had an official song named "Louder"? That was apparently the song that was played during the Games montage, according to the German commentator. I've heard of that song for the first time now, during the final hours of the Games.
