The Gangwon 2024 Winter Youth Olympic Games (YOG) want you to “Grow together, shine forever.”
That is the official slogan of the 2024 Winter Youth Olympic Games to be held in Gangwon, South Korea. The slogan was revealed on Wednesday, which also marked 500 days until the beginning of the Games.
“The slogan expresses the pivotal ideas of the Games’ vision: ‘growth, coexistence, harmony, and future’ through the message of the spirit and hope for the future, and the spirit of the growing young people,” said Kim Chulmin, secretary general of the Youth Olympic Games Organizing Committee.
“This marries with the Organizing Committee’s vision: ‘Youth celebrating peaceful coexistence and unity through sport to create a better future together’.”
Before the Games begin, the Gangwon region is dealing with an unwelcome visitor this week as Typhoon Hinnamnor has caused widespread devastation throughout South Korea’s southern industrial hubs.
Local authorities confirmed at least two people are dead, 10 missing and thousands more homeless. The Ministry of Interior and Safety said those numbers are expected to rise as rescue efforts continue.
The Gangwon 2024 Winter Youth Olympics will be held between January 19 and February 1, 2024, and will benefit from PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games’ legacy by using some of the same facilities.
Nearly 2,000 athletes from roughly 80 countries are expected to compete.
