During the February 6 broadcast of SBS 'One Night of TV Entertainment', it was revealed that the idol singer was selected as the honorary ambassador for the upcoming global sports event just days away.

In regards to this, Kang Daniel dressed up in princely attire, as the Emperor of the Goryeo Dynasty, in order to promote Korean culture and tradition.

A representative of the 'Pyeongchang Olympics' stated, "Right now all the athletics are training hard for D-Day after passing the rigorous audition process.  Likewise, there's a close resemblance in Wanna One's case, as they also face competition within the entertainment industry and work to strive for their goals," and explained why the idol star was chosen.
