“…To address this challenge, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) proposed the Olympic legacy to provide benefits to countries hosting the Games, which has already been covered by numerous studies (Brown, 2020; Chen & Henry, 2020; Grim-Yefsah et al, 2020; Karadakis et al, 2019; Preuss, 2019; Zhu & Zhu, 2018). While the Olympic legacy is a huge and complex concept covering all factors related to hosting the Games, the literature has not yet provided a concrete and consistent definition or range of the Olympic legacy, but has instead focused on a subset of the legacy, such as urban development and belief behavior (Scheu et al, 2021).…”

The Olympic legacy framework was proposed by the International Olympic Committee; however, it has not yet been discussed much in academia. This study identified a set of key dimensions and items out of 7 dimensions and 39 items from the Olympic legacy framework, along with the weight of each dimension and item. Based on the judgments of 12 Korean Olympic experts collected via the Delphi-analytical hierarchal process method, the results indicate that social development through sport is the most significant dimension, followed by economic value and brand equity, and urban development. The results also reveal that the most crucial of the 39 items are health and well-being benefits from the practice of recreational sport and physical activity from the social development through sport dimension, while the intangible cultural heritage of Olympism from the culture and creative development dimension was considered the least important. The results provide useful insight for evaluating the Olympic legacy framework for host or candidate cities and countries, as well as the International Olympic Committee.
