This unbelievable journey to the 2018 Winter Olympic is themed around "Let Everyone Shine". I look forward to sharing the torch bearer experience with all my friends and families.
The International Olympic Committee had indicated that, due to the success of the 2004 run, they might sanction a global circumnavigation of the flame before every succeeding Olympics. In many cities along the North American and European route of the torch relay of the 2008 Summer Olympics, the torch relay was protested by advocates of Tibetan independence, animal rights, and legal online gambling, and people protesting against China's human rights record, resulting in confrontations at a few of the relay locations. These protests, which ranged from thousands of people in San Francisco, to effectively none in Pyongyang, forced the path of the torch relay to be changed or shortened on a number of occasions. The torch was extinguished by Chinese security officials several times during the Paris leg for security reasons, and once in protest in Paris The attacks on the torch in London and Paris were described as "despicable" by the Chinese government, condemning them as "deliberate disruptions... who gave no thought to the Olympic spirit or the laws of Britain and France" and who "tarnish the lofty Olympic spirit", and vowed they would continue with the relay and not allow the protests to "impede the Olympic spirit". Large-scale counter-protests by overseas Chinese and foreign-based Chinese nationals became prevalent in later segments of the relay. No major protests were visible in the Latin America, Africa, and Western Asia legs of the torch relay. Prompted by the chaotic torch relays in Western Europe and North America, the president of the International Olympic Committee, Jacques Rogge described the situation as a "crisis" for the organization and stated that any athletes displaying Tibetan flags at Olympic venues could be expelled from the games. though he stopped short of cancelling the relay altogether despite calls to do so by some IOC members. The outcome of the relay influenced the IOC's decision to scrap global relays in future editions of the games.

Kaiutin44 That's usually a very well kept secret. Maybe we will get some hints by january, a couple weeks before the Opening Ceremony. Or even only during the big night!!
HAHAH! It's secret because the planners want to make a big impression. And you probably can't get close to the ceremonies stadium right now because there are construction works going on there. Maybe Google Earth will soon stop updating air views of the area and during the rehearsals there's usually a no-fly zone rule around the stadium to avoid leaks of any sort. We just have to wait...

한 번 보고싶네요 ㅠㅠ
왜 울릉도와 독도로는 안갈가?
Game warch 독도는 분쟁지역이 아니라 엄연한 우리나라의 영토입니다. 일본이 왜 자꾸 이렇게 독도 영유 표기가지고 따지는 이유는 독도는 현재 분쟁지역이라는 인식을 심기 위한것이구요. 독도 표기는 확실히 해야합니다
울릉도랑 독도 집어넣어라
당신들 속고 있는거다. 독도는 원래 일본꺼다. 처음에 나도 한국껀줄 알았다. 웰빙테크라는 회사만들고 세계적으로 사기치고다니는 한국이다. 세계로 사기를 치고 다니는 수준이면 독도가지고도 사기친다는 사실이다.
이유가 어찌되든 진실을 알려야하지 않을까?
Mather Kat 응 너의 일본인 사기치는 수준이랑 야가빠진 건 일본이 세계 최고지
전 오늘 2시15분 쯤에 봤어요!!
불꽃드신분 완전 더워 보이시던데...
I thought it was around the world, from Olympia to China, Russia, rest of Asia, Europe, etc.
