The swirling ribbon embodies the tribute to the past and aspirations for the future. Only by constant breakthroughs can one embrace the most promising future. The posture of the short track speed skater embodies the sportsmanship of the athletes of the nations and regions of Asia. The purple lilac embodies Harbin's city culture of openness, while the purple-blue hues symbolize ice and snow, reflecting the unique features of the “Ice City” and its passion for winter sports. The swirling ribbon adds a joyous visual to the emblem, depicting the enthusiasm of the people of Harbin. The OCA symbol in the upper left captures the hope, vitality and long-standing aspiration of Asian countries to pursue progress and peace, and to strive for the Olympic motto of "Citius, Altius, Fortius".
      The mascots of the event are Binbin and Nini, a pair of Siberian tigers. Binbin represents the ice events, while Nini represents the snow events. Their names embody the Games’ mantra "Welcome to Harbin".

      Controversies

      At the conclusion of the men's ice hockey match between Hong Kong and Turkmenistan, Turkmenistani players attacked members of the Hong Kong team. The Sports Federation and Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China, issued a statement "strongly condemning" the incident. Three Turkmenistani players Erkin Kakabayev, Arslan Geldimyradov, and Begench Dovletmyradov attacked several Hong Kong players, with the altercation lasting several minutes before referees were able to restore order. While none of the Hong Kong players sustained serious injuries, three were taken to the hospital as a precaution, including one who required stitches on his hand. As result, IIHF suspended four Turkmenistani players Kakabayev, Geldimyradov, Dovletmyradov, and Novruz Bayhanov from the remainder of the competition.
