hektor Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Interesting vision of Korea's objective with this bid : "If Korea succeeds in the winter Olympic bid, it would become the world's sixth country to host the three global sports events of the summer and winter Olympics and the FIFA World Cup." Could be true for Spain and Sweden as well, if they bid. I wonder when China is going to bid for a FIFA World Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...half a World Cup. They didn't quite have the finals in Seoul; did they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baron-pierreIV Posted July 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 What the hell is that? An Asian, an Amerindian, and an African crashing into each other in the dark blue snow? So, it's a double-edged logo: these are Asian (Winter) Games -- whiteys (i.e., Europe -blue and Oceania - green) not welcome; and an Asian, Amerindian and an African are so clutzy that they will crash into each other in the slopes of PyongChang.

SOlympiadsW Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 if this is their new official logo for 2014 it is all right...I mean it looks good and everything....however I really liked their 2010 bid logo with the athlete figure....I thought that one was really sharp looking, and really was one of my all time favorite bid logos....but as I said this new one is good too, if it is even official....I look forward to seeing the other cities logos for 2014 as well.....

hektor Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 It happens that two consecutive bids keep the same logo. I think Anchorage, Lillehammer, Oestersund, Salt Lake and Istanbul did that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BABYLON Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 It happens that two consecutive bids keep the same logo.I think Anchorage, Lillehammer, Oestersund, Salt Lake and Istanbul did that... I think the IOC dosen't have probelm with that. Hektor... thank God Paris 2012 bid didn't keep 2008's logo... it was the worst logo ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hektor Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Yes but we will reuse it for our 2048 bid... Just one digit to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But remember, GamesBids apportions 65% of the total score to the bid logo, in the GB Index!?! :suspect: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hektor Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Only 65 % ... I guess the remaining 35 % are for the rings which are added when the city goes from applicant to candidate city. :Oo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other six are G8 nations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ryan04 Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 i like 2010's logo better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBModerator Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 I have been informed by the PC Bid Committee that this is NOT the final approved international bidding logo. This is an internal domestic campaign logo. Although they did not rule out the possibility of using this logo for the bid, it would still have to be approved by the KOC and IOC before official, and that would be sometime after July 28. At any rate, good find Andrew - at least we know what the bid committee is considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew8 Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 YAY~ Anyway, if this becomes the new bidding logo, i like it better than last years.... Although, this new one has no "Asian" feel to it like the last one.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hektor Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 By the way POBICO means PyeongChang Olympic BId COmmittee... It's not a city in Korea ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BABYLON Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Although, this new one has no "Asian" feel to it like the last one.... This logo has nothing! Is there anything about Korea or PC in it? I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
argentak Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Although, this new one has no "Asian" feel to it like the last one.... This logo has nothing! Is there anything about Korea or PC in it? I don't think so. Bid logos don't need to have local feel. All you are doing is trying to appeal to the IOC and appear to be a "team player." And what better way to present oneself than to use the colours of the Olympic flag. The old one may have been "prettier" but I believe this one, if it is the new one, will be more efficient.
