This year’s Olympics interesting for many reasons. One of the biggest reasons that this year’s Olympics is interesting is because of the game’s location. They will be held at Pyeongchang, South Korea.

“I think that this year’s Olympics will be very unique because of all the controversies with the different countries,”Callie Feist, 9, said.

Another reason that this year will be interesting is because of how North and South Korea have been in conflict for many years before the two countries came together to form a unified women’s hockey team.

“I think it’s going to be interesting that North and South Korea are going into the Olympics as a team,” Alexa Blair,11, said. “It’ll be fun to watch and I can’t wait to see who wins gold.”

The opening ceremonies took place on Feb. 9, and the games will continue until Feb. 25.
