North Korea will send a 550-member delegation of about 550, including 230 cheerleaders, 140 artists and 30 Taekwondo players for a demonstration, the statement said. The delegation is scheduled to begin arriving in South Korea on January 25, the statement said. North Korea also proposed that their delegation travel by land through Kaesong, which lies on the main road from Pyongyang to Seoul. South Korea will also need to find ways to accommodate the North Korean delegation without violating UN Security Council sanctions which block cash transfers to Pyongyang. Any blacklisted officials in the North’s high-level delegation could be another potential stumbling block.
