Prior to their arrival at the Olympic Village in Paris, the Korean athletes will undergo acclimatization training at the Team Korea Paris Platform, a pre-training camp organized by the Korea Olympic Committee (KOC) 12 years after the London 2012 Games.
The Paris Platform will run from Aug. 11 to 12 at the National Defense Sports Center in Fontainebleau, France, 80 kilometers from the Paris Olympic Village.
The athletes will conduct joint training sessions with their training partners at the Paris Platform before moving into the Athletes’ Village around the 26th, the opening day of the Games. 온라인카지노사이트
