The closing ceremonies began with a countdown , at the conclusion of which the LED forest turned on . Lyubov , the girl from the opening ceremony , entered the stadium in a rowing boat with two clowns and two children named Yuri and Valentina . An image representing the Black Sea below appeared on the floor . Many volunteers appeared below them dressed as sea fish , which first form the Taegeuk symbol ( a nod to Pyeongchang , the next winter Games host city ) , the infinity symbol and a star , then combined to form four Olympic Rings and a dot , a reference to the malfunction of one of the rings at the Opening Ceremony failing to open properly . After a pause , the volunteers forming the dot " opened " into the fifth Ring . The Russian flag was carried by the Russian Olympic Champions from the games
