Meagan Duhamel is quoted extensively.

“They were the highest profile Korean athletes that were here, and they were really proud of that,” says Duhamel. “Like, in the Olympic Village we get a newsletter, and there was a big picture of them on the front page. And they were SO proud of that. They said, ‘Did you see? Did you see? The front page of the newspaper!’”

“At the end of the day, they’re all like us: they’re trying to live the best life that they can. They as people have nothing to do with any political situation. They can’t do anything about that. They’re trying to make the most of the life that they’ve been given.”
