Some people just don't understand how important relations can be. If you want to take a thousand mile journey you take it by taking the first step. Having NK officials and merged Olympic team is literally a massive step. You cant just start by saying yea, now free all your people and free NK. Nuclear weapons can and will be disastrous, it so serious that it's not even appropriate to joke about wielding it. Like the USA did with Cuba, some peace is better than none. That's how we start. If you have grown up your whole life being taught propaganda, it doesn't make you evil, since you innocently believe in the Lie that's been warped around you. It's not the people's fault so stop blaming them for something they can't possibly do about.

The only reason NK came to the games is to get leverage on South Korea and try to reduce their sanctions. The South Koreans are under the assumption that NK will actually change and maybe even unite the countries. But NK is never willing give up total control over their people.

Anyone else thinking modern day handmaid’s tale while watching this 😳

Imagine them seeing someone impersonates Kim Jong Un, then suddenly someone kicks the impersonators ass.

That Korean looking Ozzy is a legend he needs a medal for sheer balls good on him

They're not isolated, just separated from the rest of the world. . .

Only thing which is absent is Handcuffs

It's so sad. I feel bad for these girls. I hope they do enjoy the Olympics in some way. I wish they didn't have to live like that.

this should not be on air.. media nowadays putting pressure in both sides

I see so many mistakes, and I don’t keep on correcting people , you saw one from me and you made a big deal,cudos to you

Imagine all the North Korean seeing all these people from different backgrounds

What happen if they lose? Would their family get kill? I can’t believe that I have to even ask this question.

thought the supreme leader had his own olympic where he would be the only participant and the only winner

Why?

Being told not to smile though, it's like being stuck taking your passport photos.

Hopefully within time there can be peace.

how are they allowed to come to the Olympics?

What shocks me is the south korean police guarding them preventing escape

North koreans going to south korea is like time travelling to the future

If gunpoint is the only way to keep your citizens, maybe it’s time to look inward and ask what you’re doing wrong? Maybe, uh, do a little self-reflection? Start asking the big questions? Just a thought. I mean, to put it into another context, if there are two parties going across the hall from one another, like in that Friends episode, and everyone’s trying to sneak out of Monica’s party to go to Joey’s, maybe it’s time for Monica to take a look inside and ask how she can throw a better party that people want to go to, not get away from.

Can they run away on a Olympic trip
