<Anchor> The
2020 Tokyo Paralympic Games has come to an end.
Starting with the opening ceremony with the theme that we have wings, a fierce battle unfolds for 13 days.
This is Lee Jeong-chan, a reporter from Tokyo.
<Reporter> In a
calm atmosphere without spectators, the countdown began and the Tokyo Paralympic Games curtain rose.
The main stadium was decorated as an airport in line with the theme of the opening ceremony, 'We have wings'.
Afghanistan refugee swimmer Karimi was the first to enter on behalf of the refugee team while the team's entry was simplified due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Afghanistan, which was ruled by the Taliban and failed to participate, was called for the fifth time as the International Paralympic Committee IPC, which expressed solidarity, allowed only the flag to enter.
Boccia's signboard player Ye-jin Choi appeared with her mother, waving the Taegeukgi vigorously, and our delegation drew attention as they marched for the 82nd in hanbok.
An impressive performance was staged at the stadium that was turned into an airport again.
The story of an airplane that could not fly because it had one wing overcame prejudice and took off vigorously received sympathy from the players.
Ignition was performed by three Japanese Paralympians who were handed the torch to the medical staff who worked hard to hold the event.
I climbed the torch in a wheelchair and lit up the Tokyo night sky again.
The players who have come this far with indomitable will are now ready to impress the global village with a human victory drama.
