The closing ceremony began at 8 p.m. Thursday under the theme, "Shine Again" at the open plaza in front of Gangneung Hockey Centre in Gangneung. A highlight video of the 14-day competition was shown on the main screen, and rapper Lee Young-ji and dancing group 1Million performed for the athletes and spectators.
The two-week event was the largest Winter Youth Games ever, with 1,802 athletes from 78 countries, including 102 South Koreans, participating.
