This is a first in Olympic Games website history, and another step ahead towards fulfilling the plan to host ‘Smart Olympics' with innovative technologies.

In order to strengthen communications with the public and raise awareness about PyeongChang 2018, POCOG has added newly developed dedicated web pages for the Paralympic Winter Games and Blog into the new website, providing Games-related information in a user-friendly and well-organized manner.

Viewers can also find tips about equipment and techniques pertaining to the different sports on the Olympic Programme to help them better understand all the competitions and get more enjoyment out of viewing the Games.

POCOG currently operates its official website in three languages – Korean, English and French – and will widen its global reach by adding Chinese in the latter half of this year.
