Talk about the upcoming Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada.
2010.2.12
The 2010 Winter Olympics are coming up this February in Vancouver, Canada.
Korea's medal hopes in the Winter Games always ride on short track speed skating.
Korea typically dominates in that event, and nearly every medal Korea has ever won in the Winter Olympics has been in short track.
However, this year is a different story, as women's figure skater Kim Yu-na is set for her first Olympics.
She is the top contender for the gold this year.
Most Koreans are hoping for the 2018 Olympics to be held in Korea. Pyeongchang tried to get the hosting rights for the 2010 and 2014 Winter Games, but narrowly lost both times.
They will give it another shot for 2018.
