"...North Korea sent its athletes and 200-plus female cheerleaders who roamed the Games venue with big smiles and friendly waves, becoming a focus for many spectators."

Funny how beauty can seem to be a positive topic of discussion for the N Koreans when in reality those women are likely being pimped out to gov't and military officials. Read that as: forced sexual slavery. But hey, give 'em the gold for diplomacy if it makes you feel good. The Kim dynasty is a rotten cancer on our world's history and the sooner these psychopaths and their ilk are gone, the better.

It's disgusting that this article is using women who are forced into sexual slavery as an example of North Korea's positivity and diplomacy.
