North Korea's women's ice hockey team arrived at the Jincheon National Training Center in South Korea on Thursday.

The athletes were welcomed by their South Korean counterparts ahead of the two teams' competition as the first-ever unified Korea team at February's Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang.

As well as joining together for women's ice hockey, North and South Korean athletes will also march together under a united Korea flag at the opening ceremony on 9 February.
