The 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang are televised by a number of broadcasters throughout the world. As with previous years, Olympic Broadcasting Services together with Japan's NHK produces the world feed provided to local broadcasters for use in their coverage, including about 90 hours of content captured in 8K.[1][2]

The Games are broadcast in ultra-high resolution and high dynamic range in select markets. In South Korea, terrestrial UHD broadcasts employ ATSC 3.0 standard,[3] launched on May 31, 2017, by SBS, MBC, and KBS in major South Korean markets such as Seoul and Incheon.[4][5] In the United States UHD broadcasts are available to cable subscribers of NBCUniversal,[6] and to subscribers of satellite TV providers DirecTV and Dish Network.[7]
