the theme is peace (which was kind of a given thanks to recent north korea tensions) and the ceremony is supposed to be a five part child's tale set in a province that's split between north and south korea, so expect this to all be ultra traditional

It's even better for the Summer games, when the dancers have to pretend to be interested for like 90 minutes straight.

They’ve also avoided showing too much of the upper parts of the stadium. The post mortems will be interesting.

GANGNAM STYLE

doesn't count as K-pop. It's satirical socioeconomic commentary, not the Motown-esque idol machine of K-pop

edit: seeing pence have to grimace into faking being a human being during it was fun though

The organization was apparently very worried about the opening ceremony the last few weeks, because it looked like it was going to be incredibly cold. So it´s probably far to cold for most people to want to sit in the stadium. Also Shani Davis should have been allowed to carry the US flag
