All that and more, 7:45am on CBBC. | 0:00:00 | 0:00:01 | |
See ya. | 0:00:01 | 0:00:07 | |
Morning everyone, Ayshah here. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
First - here at Newsround we are
pretty excited about this one. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
Today is the first official day
of the Winter Olympics! | 0:00:17 | 0:00:21 | |
This year it's being held
in PyeongChang in South Korea. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
And it's expected to be one
of the coldest games on record - | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
with temperatures around -20. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
Athletes from all over the world
will be competing in 15 | 0:00:30 | 0:00:33 | |
different winter sports. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:37 | |
But how much do you know
about the host country? | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
Here's Ricky, who's
been finding out... | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
Hello and welcome to South Korea. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:44 | |
Home of kimchi, K-Pop and now
the 2018 Winter Olympics. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:48 | |
But how much do you know
about the country? | 0:00:48 | 0:00:52 | |
We've got some fun
facts to keep you in | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
the know. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
Did you know kimchi is one
of the country's popular dishes but | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
what on earth is it? | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
It's made from spicy pickled
cabbage which has been | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
fermented in a jar
for a number of months. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
Sounds a bit weird but it's
actually super tasty. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:15 | |
Koreans have around
250 different recipes | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
for kimchi and they usually
eat it with every meal. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:25 | |
Did you know that in Korea
you are actually older? | 0:01:25 | 0:01:30 | |
That's because they count
birthdays a bit differently. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:36 | |
In Korea you are born
aged one instead of zero | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
and on the new year
you gain an extra year | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
so if you were born
in | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
December by January you'd be two
years old in Korea, even though | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
you'd only be a few
days old in the UK. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:51 | |
Music is a huge part
of Korean culture and one | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
of the biggest genres | 0:01:53 | 0:01:54 | |
is K-Pop, short for Korean pop. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
The music often features big dance
routines and lots of fashionable | 0:01:56 | 0:02:03 | |
outfit changes, bands like BTS,
Twice, XO and Black Pink are super | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
popular in Korea and
around the world and get | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
millions of views for | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
their videos. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
Pyeongchang is the chosen
location in Korea but this | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
year's Olympics but did you know it
also has its own slogan which goes | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
'Happy 700 Pyeongchang', that's
because around 84% of the area is | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
made up of mountains. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
It sits an average height
of 700 metres above | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
sea level. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
This means the country gets
lots of snow which is pretty | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
great for winter sports! | 0:02:32 | 0:02:39 | |
The opening ceremony
is later this morning. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:43 | |
We'll keep you up to date
with all the best of the action. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
But there's bad news from one
of Team GB's gold medal | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
hopefuls this morning. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
British snowboarder Katie Ormerod. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
She's been ruled out of the games
after fracturing her heel. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
She injured herself yesterday. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:04 | |
Taking to Instagram,
Katie shared a picture of her x-ray. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
She's said she is gutted. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
Get well soon, Katie. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
Better news elsewhere in sport
though, as Serena Williams | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
is making her return to tennis. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
And she's said she wants
to get back on top. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
It's been a year since she's
played competitively. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
She took some time out after
the birth of her daughter, Alexis. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
The tennis ace will be part
of the Fed Cup team for the US, | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
playing against the Netherlands. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |

a whole lot bigger! | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
Loads of new emojis have been
confirmed and Hayley's been finding | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
out what you can look forward to. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
Finally the emoji
I have always wanted. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
Not the llama, not the abacus,
not the microbe, it's the | 0:03:40 | 0:03:46 | |
superhero emoji. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
I've always wanted to
send my mum that one. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:56 | |
It's one of more than 150 new emojis | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
that will be heading to your phone
or tablet this year. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
Others include a person
with red hair, curly hair, | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
bald head, party face,
tooth, leg, loo roll, | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
teddy bear, soap, lobster,
hot face, cold face, Peacock and a | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
skateboard. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
Now there is no news yet
on the frowning poo emoji which was | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
rumoured to be on its way but all
the others will be here sometime | 0:04:15 | 0:04:19 | |
this year, we just don't
know exactly when yet. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
Finally - it's Friday! | 0:04:23 | 0:04:24 | |
So perhaps you're planning
to do something fun this | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
evening after school. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
If you've not made up your mind yet
why not take inspriation | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
from these guys and catch a movie? | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
Yes, these insects
are wearing 3D glasses! | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
Scientists used beeswax to carefully
attach the tiny specs | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
to the little critters
which are called praying mantis. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
They're doing experiments to find
out more about the way the insects | 0:04:42 | 0:04:45 | |
see, which they hope
will help to develop better robots. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:51 | |
That's all we've time for right now. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
I'll be back in half an hour. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:55 |
