According to local media, Seoul City says it will cost roughly 3.4-billion dollars to the host the 2032 Olympics.
And that's excluding Pyongyang's share of the bill.
Amid warming ties, the leaders of North and South Korea agreed earlier this year to jointly host the games.
South Korea hosted the Winter Olympics in February. And North Korea had expressed interest in sharing those games as well.
But there were massive concerns about infrastructure and safety in the North.
