North and South Koreans plan to march together, field joint Olympic team
SEOUL, South Korea - In a rare gesture of unity after recent threats of "enveloping fire," North and South Korea agreed Wednesday to march together under a unified flag during the opening ceremony at next month's Winter Olympics.
The announcement also includes plans to organize a joint women's ice hockey team, which if approved would be the first combined Korean team for the Olympics - a symbolic milestone that comes only days after a false ballistic missile scare sent shock waves across Hawaii.
But analysts said it was too soon to say whether the Olympic accord amounted to a breakthrough - or just a breather.
