The Korean athletes of the 2024 Paris Olympics are worried about the ‘heat’ and the ‘cold’ of the lower-than-expected temperatures.
However, when they enter the athletes’ village, they can sleep warmly with ‘blankets’ prepared by the Korea Sports Federation.
It rained all morning in Paris, France, where the Paris Olympic Organizing Committee held a media day for the Athletes’ Village.
Temperatures dropped below 20 degrees Celsius.
“We tried to prepare for the heat of the Paris summer, but at the same time, we also prepared blankets in case the temperature drops dramatically,” said an official from the Korea Sports Federation, which unveiled the Korean athletes’ accommodations at the media day.
The KFA is trying to ensure that the athletes train and compete in an environment as similar to Korea as possible.
The Korean athletes have been allocated 89 rooms in the Olympic Village in Paris.
There is no air conditioning in the athletes’ village.
To reduce carbon emissions, the organizers of the Paris Olympics did not install indoor air conditioning, instead relying on natural cooling through a layout that promotes air circulation between buildings and varied building sizes.
Such a system can keep the temperature inside 6 to 7 degrees Celsius cooler than outside.
The Korean Sports Federation considered installing air conditioning, but the organizers were against it because of the power consumption, so they went with a different approach.
89 fans were purchased and placed in each room.
There are also 26 mobile air conditioners that will be delivered to athletes who request them.
We also put cooling jackets with a special eco-friendly refrigerant in the furniture in the athletes’ rooms.
As the temperature in Paris is not as high as expected, the Korean athletes are preparing for the opening day of the Games on June 26 without suffering from the heat.
The Korean Sports Federation has also prepared mosquito repellent in consideration of the lack of mosquito nets in the athletes’ village.
The “cardboard beds” used since the 2021 Tokyo Olympics have become much stronger, so athletes can use them without worry.
In Tokyo, the cardboard beds could withstand a load of 200 kilograms, while the beds in the Olympic Village in Paris can withstand up to 250 kilograms.
Since the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, the corrugated beds have become much stronger, allowing athletes to use them without worry.
In Tokyo, the corrugated beds were able to withstand a load of 200 kilograms, but the beds in the Olympic Village in Paris can withstand up to 250 kilograms.
In Building B, the Korean athletes’ residence, there are plenty of food items tailored to the athletes’ tastes.
The lounges on the third through fifth floors are stocked with sabal noodles, instant rice, and kimchi, and are often visited by athletes who miss Korean food.
There are many Korean grocery stores in Paris, so the KFA sourced the noodles locally.
The terrace lounge on the fourth floor is a romantic spot.
Athletes can look out over the Seine River, which flows by the athletes’ village, from the lounge on the fourth floor, and relax from the pressure of the Olympic stage.
At the first-floor infirmary, athletes can receive treatment from Korean medical staff. 카지노사이트 추천
