Kim Yong Nam-the highest-level North Korean official ever to go to the South-as the Games trigger a diplomatic rapprochement between the rivals. Ahead of the opening ceremony the South’s President Moon Jae-in shook hands with Kim Yong Nam at a leaders’ reception in Pyeongchang, where the two were to be seated at the top table-along with US Vice President Mike Pence and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, both of whose countries are regularly threatened by the North.
