Highlighting the life in the world's most unknowable country she said that people in North Korea have access to only one TV channel and one newspaper that is run content that praises both Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il.
"Having North Korea attend the Olympic Games works two-fold as it allows them to express tensions in a non-violent manner and gives North Koreans a chance to see the outside world as less hostile".
Stepping off a bus, the athletes ignored questions as they were mobbed by throngs of media.
Reuters had discovered eight vessels, including the now sanctioned Kum Un San, as perpetrators of a transportation scheme in which ships would lie about their final destinations and head to North Korea with fuel products. North Korea, angry at being snubbed in their request to cohost the Games, plotted to bomb a South Korean airliner heading to Bangkok.
North Korea sent an incredibly rare public message to "all Koreans at home and abroad" today, calling for unification with South Korea.
Despite this deal being a landmark achievement in terms of conversation between the two countries-North and South Korea have had minimal contact since 2016-some think that unification is still a far-off fantasy.
"I heard them worrying about insufficient funds in Office No. 39 a number of times", the source added, noting that four of the six nuclear tests carried out by North Korea have been done under Kim's watch. Tensions escalated dramatically a year ago as the regime of Kim Jong Un stepped up its program aimed at developing a nuclear-tipped missile capable of striking the United States.

The announcement came after a meeting of North Korea's nominal political parties and other organizations in Pyongyang. Despite opposition protests throughout Seoul and Pyeongchang, North and South Korea will also compete as a unified women's hockey team. "Any option that is to be taken on the Korean peninsula, can not be implemented without us going along".
South Korea's Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha said on Thursday that talks were the only viable option for resolving the crisis over North Korea's nuclear programme.
North Korea has exported coal to Japan and South Korea via Russian ports in a probable violation of United Nations sanctions, Reuters is reporting.
Pompeo also warned that North Korea could sell nuclear-weapon and ballistic-missile technology and research to other countries, including Iran, which could set off a nuclear arms race.
Recently, South Korea's president Moon Jae-in championed closer relations with the North and called the games an "epoch-making opportunity to improve inter-Korean relations and establish peace".
The North Korean announcement also said that South Korea's joint military exercises with "outside forces" - likely referring to the US - have contributed to the tension.
But analysts say turning the thaw into a longer-term detente will be far more daunting, as the North rejected discussing its nuclear weapons program with the South in earlier talks. The event was co-hosted by the organizing committee for the PyeongChang Olympics.
