Is there any way I can watch this online ? Have been searching for a stream for the past hour.

Bear who became a woman who married a heavenly king and her son became Korea's founder.

Have I mentioned that I love creation myths? They're always great.

Not the best but well...better than nothing.

I don’t think this is being broadcast in the US until later :think:

NBCSN is showing a Chuck Norris infomercial. :yawn:

I’m going back to bed

The NBC stream has no commentary. No random facts and corny jokes :hap93:

This is beautiful thus far

7 with an extremely awkwardly timed commercial break, comes back just in time for the President and dignitaries.

Bach: "you guys might hate me but I still have a gold medal" :dev2:

Seeing Yuna in the opening video was great. How long until she shows up in the opening ceremony?
I mean, surely she must. ;-)

Yipes. I hope Eurosport don't put any adverts in!

Now lots of laser lights, drums, women in beautiful skirts with the drums. Lots of twirling and circles.

 

[SpiffySpiders]

Canada's no commentary stream isn't online yet - still says Coming Up.

Canadian slant, since it's CBC Olympic Morning coverage (it is already political in nature at times, and I don't mean skating politics...), and a VPN is needed outside Canada, but it's a clear stream:

Loving this percussion section. Who run the world? Girls! The styling

Bach: "you guys might hate me but I still have a gold medal" :dev2:

LOL he didn't actually say that did he?!

I mean if he was a cooler person and put a mike drop in I'd applaud, but Bach ain't a cool guy.

(Finally back to figure skating coverage in my rewatching! Chiddy just came out and did...not so well...)

 

[karne]

The drum ladies in the middle suddenly reveal that under their white robes are red and blue and they make the Korean flag!

I love drum people! Thinking back to 2008 in Beijing was so boss...I should watch this on a stream!

Korea's flag being brought in by eight outstanding former Olympians.

No Yuna - she's got to be lighting the couldron.

Just my imagination. Oh how I wish he had a sense of humor . . .

OMG, I haven't seen Se Ri Pak in forever!

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

People on planes heading to Korea. All of the logos of past winter games being worked in in chronological order.

EDIT: And first Yuna sighting during that sequence. Aussie commentators are betting heavily on her lighting the cauldron.

Well, she isn't carrying the flag, so I'd say the odds have shortened immensely. She'll definitely be one of the torch bearers at the very least.

Oh well (not gonna lie, I was imagining Plushy doing this one day and it would be the greatest moment)

Right I'm watching the Opening Ceremony on my phone now, I like what the traditional guard of honour are wearing!
