Committee Making Final Push for Winter Olympics

South Korea’s winter Olympics bid committee is making a final push to promote Pyeongchang’s bid to host the 2018 winter Olympics. The final voting to select the host will take place in Durban, South Africa.

Bidding committee chairman Jo Yang-ho and International Olympic Committee member Lee Kun-hee are promoting Pyeongchang’s bid, appealing for the IOC's last-minute support.

South Korean figure skater Kim Yu-na is also practicing for her presentation.

The competition to bring home the 2018 winter Olympics is heating up with another strong contender Germany's Munich 2018 bid committee arriving in Durban.

The host of the 2018 winter Olympics will be decided by a secret electronic ballot at the IOC General Assembly at midnight Wednesday.
