With fewer than 100 days before the PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games in February, Korea is gearing up for the world's biggest winter sporting event. Olympic posters play an important role in promoting the world event. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism (MCST) and the PyeongChang Organizing Committee for the 2018 Olympic and Paralympic Games (POCOG) held a competition this year to find the art poster that best presents the values of the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Games with people's hopes and expectations.
