North Korea hopes to compete in figure skating, Alpine skiing, hockey and cross-country skiing at the Olympics, a PyeongChang 2018 chief organizer reportedly said Thursday.
Lee Hee-beom said the two Koreas agreed on those four sports, according to Yonhap News Agency.
The International Olympic Committee will decide on North Korea’s participation in PyeongChang, given zero North Koreans qualified outright for the Winter Games. The IOC can offer special invitations.
The two Koreas and the IOC are scheduled to discuss the North’s potential Olympic participation on Saturday.
Earlier this week, the two Koreas agreed to march together in the Opening Ceremony and compete as a joint team.
