Off opening ceremonies for the Winter Olympics in south korea get under way friday. The games will be played under tight security just 50 miles from the north korea border. Ben tracy reports from the host city. So when pyeongchang was awarded the game more than seven years ago, tensions in the region were quite a bit lower. North korea did not have Nuclear Weapons thought capable of hitting the united states. So a lot has changed. Now the security concerns here involve everything from terrorism to war. A terrorist has taken athletes hostage and is about to ram a vehicle into an Olympic Stadium. A chemical bomb explode in a trash can as spectators run for their lives. And a drone carrying explosives is shot out of the sky. These are some of the terror drills, Security Forces have been conducting near olympic sites. This law enforce. Command center is now open in pyeongchang to monitor security during the games. Overall, south korea is mobilizing a more than 60,000 person olympic security force. Including, 50,000 soldiers. That includes south Korean Marines who in a somewhat odd display with their american counterparts tested their tolerance for the cold and snow. We covered reconnaissance skills as well as critical combat skills in a cold weather environment. Of course one of the biggest concerns is north korea. In 1987, 10 months before south korea held the summer olympics in seoul. North korean agents place aid bomb on a korean air flight killing all 115 people on board. Kim jonguns rogue nation is just 50 miles from pyeongchang. Across the demilitaryized zone, separating north and south. This is what is known as the the joint security area of the dmz. This is where north and south meet. You literally have south korean soldiers here who are staring into north korea just beyond the blue huts. The u. S. And south korea delayed their annual military exercises. So as not to provoke north korea. The norths decision to send a large delegation to the games is thought to have reduced the chances that it will disrupt the event with a Missile Launch or nuclear test. Another big concern here at the olympics is some sort of large scale cyberattack that would disrupt the games and that is something north korea is particularly adept at. They have hired a private Security Firm here to try to prevent that kind of attack. Well have much more on the Winter Olympics when we come back. You are watching the cbs overnight news.

One great way to discover new feelings together. This is the cbs overnight news. The Winter Olympics and south korea get under way this weekend. And not everyone in that country is happy about it. The big concern, the price tag, a brand new Olympic Stadium costs 60 million. And it is only scheduled to be used four times. Ben tracy is there. So that is the 60 million stadium that they call temporary. Overall these Olympic Games are costing abut 13 billion, paid for largely by the south korean government.
