第一次舉辦大型活動,就出了點岔子…
韓國平昌冬奧會將於2018年2月9日拉開序幕,為期17天。據韓聯社報導,來自95個國家和地區的2900多名運動健兒將為102枚金牌展開角逐。
11月4日,2018年平昌冬季奧運會暨冬季殘疾人奧運會組委會在平昌冬奧會開閉幕式場館宣布,為紀念冬奧倒計時百日,各項目賽場等設施基本竣工。據中國新聞網報導,平昌冬奧會開閉幕式場館可容納3.5萬名觀眾。4日當晚,冬奧會開閉幕式場館舉行了煙花秀慶祝竣工。

同時,4日晚在平昌冬奧會開閉幕式場館還有一場「2017夢想演唱會」,多位韓國人氣歌手、組合出演,陣容堪稱豪華。據人民網報導,本次演唱會也是該場館開通試運營後舉辦的第一場大型活動。
結果…第一次舉辦大型活動,就出了點岔子
…
Seven people were stricken with hypothermia at an event for the newly completed PyeongChang Olympic Stadium on Saturday, raising alarm as to the serious lack of protection against cold weather for spectators at the venue.
周六晚,在剛剛竣工的平昌冬奧會開閉幕式場館中舉辦大型活動,因場館缺乏抵禦寒冷天氣的設施,有7名觀眾因為體溫過低不幸凍傷。

According to local news channel YTN, medics treated seven audience members at the scene who became hypothermic after hours of exposure to the cold air at the stadium, which lacks a roof.
據當地新聞頻道YTN報導,這個體育場館沒有屋頂,這7名觀眾暴露在冷空氣中數小時後開始出現體溫過低症狀,醫護人員現場對他們進行了治療。
The opening event, which included a large K-pop concert, was attended by some 30,000 people who sat in the open air for hours on a windy night in temperatures of around 3 degrees Celsius.
這場大型活動包括一場流行演唱會,約3萬名觀眾坐在露天場館中觀看演唱會長達幾個小時,當晚有風,氣溫在攝氏3度左右。
The need for a protective roof on the main stadium had been raised multiple times by lawmakers since its design phase in 2015, but was eventually dismissed due to opposition from the Culture Ministry, which quoted budget issues.
自從2015年這座主場館的設計階段開始,多次有立法者提出應該修建屋頂,以起到保護作用。但是最終因為文化部提出預算問題,反對修建屋頂,這項建議沒有得到實行。
The opening and closing ceremonies of the previous three Winter Games -- held in Sochi, Russia, Vancouver, Canada, and Turin, Italy -- were all held in roofed stadiums.
而前三屆冬季奧運會,即俄羅斯索契冬奧會,加拿大溫哥華冬奧會和義大利都靈冬奧會的開閉幕式場館都是有屋頂的。
The weather during the Winter Games in February is expected to be much colder than at Saturday’s opening event. According to the Korea Meteorological Administration, the average temperature in PyeongChang last February was minus 4.8 degrees.
冬奧會時間為明年2月,那時的氣溫預計將比周六晚舉行大型活動時的溫度低的多。據韓國氣象局統計,平昌去年2月的平均氣溫為攝氏零下4.8度。

而從視頻截圖中可以看到,現場觀眾紛紛披著毛毯、戴著帽子禦寒,但是由於在室外時間長達4個多小時,當晚風也比較大,雖然溫度並不是太低,還是有人被凍傷了。

據《環球時報》援引韓聯社稱,防寒對策成為平昌冬奧會棘手話題,「為節省預算,冬奧會開閉幕式場館為沒有屋頂的露天設施,無法抵禦寒潮和雨雪,僅憑暖寶寶和毛毯來禦寒,存在局限性」。
為了省錢,凍壞了觀眾,聽起來甚至有些喜感,不像是舉辦世界級別體育賽事的場館中發生的問題。但是,資金不足又確實是此次平昌冬奧會面臨的現實問題。
早前,據騰訊體育援引韓國媒體報導,2014年韓國斥巨資舉辦仁川亞運會,民眾對此感到不滿,仁川市更是為此欠下巨債。而這次的平昌冬奧會,據彭博社報導,組委會預算到現在還有2.7億美元依然沒有著落。其中,冬奧會主場館,也就是這次凍傷觀眾的開閉幕式場館,修建過程可謂「歷經坎坷」,卻還是被吐槽壞了…
加拿大體育網站sportsnet.ca甚至這樣描述主場館:
South Korea’s sleepy skiing destination of Pyeongchang is finally looking like a Winter Olympics host city after more than a decade of work, two failed bids, and chapters of controversy over venue locations, construction delays and costs.
經歷了兩次競標失敗,選址、施工延誤、經費均引發一系列爭議,十多年後,韓國平昌那處無趣的滑雪場終於看起來有點冬奧會主辦城市的樣子了。

The pentagonal, 35,000-seat stadium is another picturesque venue. But it’s also seen as symbolizing what’s wrong with the Pyeongchang Games regarding the costs for hosting the event and maintaining unused facilities afterward.
這座能夠容納35000名觀眾的五角形建築十分别致,但是也標誌著平昌冬奧會在主辦大型活動和修建無用設施方面犯下了錯誤。
The stadium will only be used for the opening and closing ceremonies and will be torn down after the Games, with the site to be used for a museum and leisure facilities. A plan to reduce costs by using an existing stadium in Gangneung for the ceremonies was dropped after Pyeongchang residents protested.
平昌冬奧會主場館只用來舉行開幕式和閉幕式,在冬奧會結束後就會被拆除,場地將會用來修建博物館和其他休閒設施。本來有一項計劃是為了節約開支,直接使用江陵市已有的一處體育館舉辦開閉幕式,但是由於平昌居民表示抗議,該計劃沒有實施。

Spectators in the outdoor stadium will have to prepare for hours of exposure to cold winter temperatures. The area where it was built is notorious for strong winds, and organizers are planning to provide blankets and raincoats and considering placing heaters in some aisles between the rows of plastic seats.
由於冬奧會主場館是露天的,觀眾們必須做好幾個小時一直待在冬季室外的心理準備。而該場館的修建處又正好是出了名的容易颳大風,組織者們只好計劃在場館內提供毛毯和雨衣,並且在塑料座椅的一些通道之間放置加熱器,幫助觀眾禦寒。

不過,根據門票預售情況來看,也不必為觀眾們的身體狀況過於擔心。據《今日美國》報導,截至17年10月24日,平昌冬奧會預售票只賣了30%左右。
而主場館有屋頂的上屆索契冬奧會,開幕之前預售票已賣出超過70%... 目前距離開幕式還有近100天,Emmmm... 可以說是還能「搶救」一下了。
