The North Korean cheerleading squad gave a 30-minute public performance at the seaside Hourglass Park in Gangnueng, Gangwon Province on Feb. 22. Following the close of the performance, which came on the 16th day of the squad’s stay in South Korea, members thanked the roughly 300 citizens who had come to watch the show by saying, “We are one!” and “Let’s meet again!” The cheerleading squad is also planning a free performance at the multi-purpose stadium in Inje on Feb. 23. The cheerleaders are shown supporting Korean athletes at the Alpensia Ski Resort in Pyeongchang on Feb. 22. (by Park Jong-shik, staff photographer)
