Two Koreas will compete under one flag at Asian Games
NY Post, Jun 18, 2018, Mark Moore

North and South Korea will march under a unified flag in the Asian Games and will play a basketball game next month as the relationship between the two countries continues to thaw, according to a report on Monday.

Athletes from the two rivals will compete as one team and march together under a “Korea” flag during the opening and closing ceremonies of the Asian Games in Indonesia from mid-August to early September — just as they did at the Winter Olympic Games in Seoul, Reuters reported,

​They will also play a basketball game in the North Korean capital Pyongyang on July 4, which marks the anniversary of an ​agreement signed by the two countries in 1972 establishing the terms of unification.

Another hoops game is expected to be played in Seoul later in the year.

Will there be a class for athletes with intestinal parasites too?
