The french translation of the anoncements is quite bad. From the way it is said, it sound like the 8 peoples that carry the Olympic Flag are the only one to have ever won Olympic Medals for Korea prior to 1988...

the music on the march is pretty interesting, anyway that fireworks are not pretty nice :S (the people could think it was a terrorist attack or a sort of thing xD) one question, the olympic anthem is singed on korean or it is on another language?

It's the Olympics Anthem was sung in Korean. The Olympic Hymn is always sung with the host country's language (only exception was Sydney in 2000 when they had the Greek Orthodox Choir sung in Greek to commemonrate the the Greek immigrants in Australia).

The ones in yellow i think reminds of the mehter in Turkey. I like the anthem-but i prefer to sung it in Greek-that's the language often used. In spite of some lanuages used for the olympic anthem, Greek is the most recognized for the composer and even the writer of the song is greek.

I remember "Ceddin Deden" and the Janissaries when i heared the ones in yellow playing trumpets.

Not really. The Greek version was only sung in Calgary, Sydney and of course Athens so far. Far more often, they've sung the anthem in the host country's language.

But because of the language of the hosy countries, they have to translate it in their local languages. Except during the 2000 Olympics where instead of english it was sung in Greek.

That was awesome when the doves were released. Too bad most of them had to die when the cauldron was lit...
