This year, record-breaking cold weather continues, and we have received many voices from those troubled by heavy snowfall. We sincerely extend our sympathies to everyone enduring these harsh days. Please keep warm and take good care of your health.
In 2026, the 25th Winter Olympics will begin this month. In March, the WORLD BASEBALL CLASSIC 2026 will take place, followed by the Soccer World Cup in June, and then the Asian Games in the fall, with global events being held one after another.
These events are not merely sports festivals but also venues where different cultures and values intersect. We hope that through sports, international relations and social tensions and discord can be alleviated, and that smoothness, peace, and cooperative relationships can be restored.
As we imagine the thrilling matches, let's endure this cold a little longer!
