Hopefully the South Koreans can figure out how to make the venues a long-term thing when the next Winter Olympics come around for Pyongchang. They have been building things there, like the big ski jump, for years.

RE: Hopefully the South Koreans can figure out how to make the venues a long-term thing when the next Winter Olympics come around for Pyongchang.

Seoul 1988 made a profit of $300 Million. This I think, is still a record that hasn’t been topped. One of a handful of Olympics that actually made money.

I think the South Koreans can learn from their predecessors.
