The stop saw the Torch travel from the Yangdeokwon Intersection to Tori Forest via the Sutasa Temple, Mugunghwa Park and the Hongcheon Culture and Arts Center.  

Among the highlights of today's programme was a performance by South Korean singer Insooni.

Other places to have welcomed the Torch in the past week have been Inje, Goseong, Sokcho, Yangyang and Chuncheon.

Hoengseong is scheduled to play host to a leg tomorrow, which will mark day 92 of the Relay.

It will be followed by trips to Wonju, Yeongwol, Taebaek, Samcheok, Donghae, Jeongseon, Gangneung and finally Pyeongchang for the Opening Ceremony of the Games at the Olympic Stadium on February 9.

The Pyeonchang 2018 Winter Olympic Torch embarked on a 2,018 kilometres journey around South Korea after arriving in Incheon on November 1.

By the start of the Games, it will have visited 17 cities and provinces and will have been carried by 7,500 Torchbearers.

The journey followed a lighting in traditional fashion in Ancient Olympia in Greece on October 24.

The flame was officially handed over to South Korean officials during a ceremony at the Panathenaic Stadium in Athens on October 31.

There are still no clues on who will be the final Torchbearer.

Back in 1988, South Korean capital Seoul broke new ground with three final bearers - representing sport, culture and education - to ignite the flame.
