Beijing held an Olympic ceremony in 2008, which put an enormous scale with 15,000 performers. However, only about 3,000 performers participated in this year's ceremony. Also, because of COVID-19, athletes and media members officially fell into a closed-loop system." So, everyone could not go outside until the Olympics and should progress a COVID-19 test every day.


Although the theme of the opening ceremony is "One World, One Family". Beijing could not make it. The United States, England, and Canada are some of the countries which declared a boycott, but China will continue by their thought that they are no longer need verification from Western nations. Lastly, 65 athletes in all sports, except for hockey, will participate in the Olympics as South Korea's representative.
