North Korean delegation Jon Jong Su left and South Korean Vice Unification Minister Chun Hae-sung right as they arrived for their meeting to continue their discussions on Olympics cooperation Jan. 17 2018
After South and North Korea agreed to make a joint entrance at next month's Olympics, the culture and sports ministry also said it will push for similar entrances at other worldwide sporting events, such as the Jakarta Asian Games in August.
North Korean IOC member Chang Ung met the delegation. But 20 nations agreed on Tuesday to consider tougher sanctions to press North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons.
The IOC has said that Saturday's meeting would take a series of "essential decisions" on the North's participation at the Games that open in Pyeongchang on February 9. The two sides agreed Monday to meet again at their border on Wednesday for working-level talks ahead of the International Olympic Committee meeting. American intelligence experts believe the new generation of ballistic missiles being developed by North Korea will provide Pyongyang with the ability to fire nuclear-armed weapons at the American mainland, while numerous missile tests were conducted close to the territorial waters of Japan, one of Washington's closest allies. "The fact that North Korea is engaging in dialogue could be interpreted as proof that the sanctions are working".
KCNA criticized remarks by South Korean President Moon Jae-in last week that credited President Donald Trump for getting the North to sit down with the South.

In particular, Mr Trump's no-nonsense approach, together with the alarming rhetoric that has at times characterised his attitude towards North Korea, appears to have had a salutary effect on Beijing, the only country with the ability to bring its influence to bear on Pyongyang. It also accused Seoul of letting Washington deploy strategic assets like an aircraft carrier near the Korean Peninsula on the occasion of the Olympics.
"It's hard because the players have earned their spots and they think they deserve to go to the Olympics", Murray said, according to Yonhap. He said more discussions are expected to work out details of North Korean performances.
A joint statement after today's meeting didn't mention North Korea's well-known Moranbong Band, an all-female ensemble hand-picked by the North's leader Kim Jong Un. The band was created by an order of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in July 2012 and features Western-style music and outfits.
