The Olympic athletes are steadily getting accustomed to their new home for the next three weeks.
Looking sharp and confident,... the athletes are ready to go for medals... a goal they've been striving toward for the past four years.
During the Olympic Games,... we have our team in PyeongChang,... and today,.. our Lee Ji-won reports from the host city.
Starting with the Romanian team on February 5th,... the Pyeongchang and Gangneung Olympic Villages have been holding team welcoming ceremonies for the Winter Olympics athletes. They welcomed Team Korea on Wednesday.
With more athletes arriving at the villages by the day, excitement for the Games is growing.

"This is what we've all been looking forward to. We've been together as a team since early August so for it to finally be time to move in to the village and to get the Olympics started it's extremely exciting."

The welcoming ceremonies are still going on until Friday, but many athletes have moved in and started training already,... creating a real buzz around the Olympic villages.

"It's really exciting. We got on the course first time last night, onto the mogul course, and checked out the venue and got a sense for what it's like. I think everyone is really positive with their vibes at the moment. There's a great atmosphere around and everyone just can't wait to compete."

That 'great atmosphere' could also be felt over at the Main Press Center, where the briefing rooms are fully booked with teams wanting to share their determination and Olympics goals to the world.

"It's a pretty cool atmosphere, it's a big scene. There's a lot going on, there's a lot of additional media people, for instance, and a lot of other stuff keeping us busy so it feels like the big event.

With the first event of the PyeongChang Olympics to start on Thursday, and the Opening Ceremony to take place on Friday, the Olympic buzz is building by the day.
