Sports diplomacy in motion: N Korea delegates arrive in South for inspection

Seoul

NORTH Korean delegates arrived in South Korea on Sunday to prepare for cultural performances during next month's Winter Olympics, in the first visit by Pyongyang officials to the South for four years.

Television footage showed seven officials led by Hyon Song-Wol, the leader of the North's popular Moranbong girl band, crossing the heavily-fortified border by bus before arriving at Seoul train station about an hour later.
