Japan's worries about North Korea's 'charm offensive'

It was half way through the second period when Randi Heesoo Griffin fought her way down the right wing and slipped the puck between Japanese goalkeeper Akane Konishi's pads.

The puck slid in to the net and the crowd went wild. In the stands, the ranks of red-clad North Korean cheerleaders erupted.
For the first time in Olympic history a unified Korean women's hockey team had scored a goal, and not just any goal, this goal was against Japan.
You could have been forgiven for thinking the Korean team was winning. In fact, by the end they had lost 4-1. But they had scored a goal. And if sheer desire to win had been the decider, the Korean women would have trounced their Japanese opponents by a mile.
"The North Koreans feel the same as us," South Korean player Choi Ji Yeon said before the game. "We told each other that we're going to have to win this game against Japan no matter what."
