The fire has been lit.
The flame for the 20-18 PyeongChang Winter Olympics was burst into life on Tuesday in Greece,... the birthplace of ancient Olympics.
The torch will tour Greece for the next few days... before arriving in Incheon on November First.
It will end its journey in early February... when it lights up the cauldron at the Olympic Stadium in PyeongChang.
Cha Sang-mi reports.
The torch lighting ceremony of the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics was held Tuesday at the ancient temple in Olympia at 6-P.M., Korea time.
The ceremony, lasting about an hour, represents the beginning of the 2018 Olympics... and is a prelude to one of the games' most emblematic events, the torch relay.
In attendance were the IOC president Thomas Bach, PyeongChang Olympic Committee President Lee Hee-Beom, and Korean prime Minister Lee Nak-yeon.
The Torch was lit by a Greek actress playing the role of High Priestess.
After the lighting, the first athlete to carry the torch was Greek cross-country skier Apostolos Angelis ( ) who brought the flame out of the Hera temple. He then passed it to legendary Korean football player, Park Ji-sung, who is an honorary ambassador for the 2018 Winter Games.
The torch will be taken on a tour around Greece over the next seven days by 505 participants, and will be handed over to the PyeongChang 2018 Organizing Committee at Incheon International Airport on November 1st, marking the flame's first return to Korea in the 30 years since the 1988 Seoul Olympics.
Under the theme of "Let Everyone Shine," the torch will start its one-hundred-and-one day journey to the main stadium in Pyeongchang, covering exactly 2-thousand-18 kilometers, traveling through all of Korea's nine provinces and eight major cities, and passing by several major landmarks along the way.
