North and South Korea agreed Monday to form unified teams for some sports at the upcoming Asian Games – a move which highlights the rapprochement on the peninsula that begin with the Winter Olympics.
At their historic summit in April, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in had agreed to joint participation in “international sports events such as the 2018 Asian Games”.
Officials from the two Koreas met at the border truce village of Panmunjom on Monday and reached several agreements aimed at strengthening sporting ties.
