Hosting Olympic Games.

What is your top criterion to host Olympics in your country? I wonder whether your opinion would be changed or not after knowing that the hosting country actually can suffer from hosting Olympics.


Did you want Pyeongchang to be selected as the venue for the Winter Olympic games? So, Why did you want Pyeongchang to be selected as the location for the Winter Olympic games? As you know, it is good to host the Olympics in our country to us. If we host the Olympics in our country, we will have Indirect benefits as well as direct benefits. So, everyone wants to host the Olympics in their country. However, If the hosting Olympics accompany the loss, are you still going to host the Olympics in your country? We should think carefully about hosting the Olympics.


Governments want to host the Olympics because they expect many profits from the Olympics. But, the problem is that it is just expectation, nobody knows how it is going in the real future.
To host the Olympic games, Governments of the venue for the Olympics should spend heavy money to make stadiums and to develop transportation and facilities. Because they expect that the hosting Olympics will make a huge profit, they are willing to loan while they spend money. But if heavy money spent by government aren't collected after hosting year, the country of venue for the Olympic games would receive great damage. So, governments which wanted to host the Olympic games must exactly expect profits for the Olympics.


Governments couldn't host the Olympics without any preparations.
Before venue for the Olympic games is selected by IOC, IOC examine the proposed sites. But proposed sites can turn in wrong data about their real situation. For example, Nagano in Japan and Vancouver in Canada changed prearranged skiing course to other skiing course because of environmental problem during Olympic period. therefore, to be selected as the site for host Olympics, governments have to prepare and show them to IOC in the real world, not just plan. So, governments should make a real action to prepare and heavy money must be needed.


My opinion about the criteria for a successful Olympics is that the Olympics is not for money or profit but for people through the sports. So, before the Olympics is hosted, everyone who wanted to host the Olympics should think carefully about whether to fit a venue for the Olympic games.

  1. But after Olympics other countries people will know about our country. As I know many foreigners know Samsung but they don’t know Korea. Some people know Samsung is Japan’s company. But hosting the Olympic we can introduce our country. and I think introducing country to foreigners is good profit to us.

  2. Yeah. We need to upgrade Korea image abroad. That will bring huge effect. After the Olympic ends, many foreigners will remember our country for a long time and they may visit us someday in the future.

  3. I think that the main reason in trying to be the host of Olympic is for the reputation of the hosting country.
