Historical Note The 1988 Summer Olympics (officially known as the Games of the XXIV Olympiad) were held in Seoul, South Korea from September 17 to October 2, 1988. They were the first Olympic Games ever held in South Korea. Seoul was chosen to host the Summer Games through a vote held on September 30, 1981. The Seoul Olympic Organizing Committee (SLOOC), led by President Park She-jik, was responsible for the lead up to the Summer Olympics as well as in charge of overseeing the promotional aspects. Through correspondence with USC's Korean Heritage Library in 1988, it was decided USC would become the official repository for materials relating to the then still upcoming Olympic Games.
