After the talks, North Korea said Hyon would also lead the Samjiyon art troupe, whose performances would be the first by a North Korean group in South Korea since 2002. Photos showed a smiling Hyon shaking heads with a South Korean official upon arrival at the border. Among the 22 are 12 women who will join South Korea's female hockey team in the Koreas' first-ever unified Olympic team. Her delegation had been expected in South Korea on Saturday, but North Korea canceled that plan on Friday night before it proposed a two-day trip starting Sunday. An attempt by the group to perform any propaganda piece would trigger protests from conservatives in South Korea.
