The Olympic flame has arrived in South Korea, marking 100 days until the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. South Korean Olympic champion Kim Yo-na carried the flame from Greece. A torch relay involving 7,500 people will cover 2,018 kilometers across the country. The games will occur from February 9 to 25. Despite enthusiasm, the event faces challenges like low ticket sales and tensions with North Korea, whose nuclear tests have heightened regional tensions. Pyeongchang is located just 80 kilometers from the demilitarized zone separating the two Koreas.
