Charles-Article summerizing (Marathon in North Korea)

News topic: Marathon in North Korea

Who: 400 foreigner marathoners (including amateurs from 15 different countries)

When: Kim Il Sung's Birthday on April 24th, 2014

Where: Pyongyang

What: Marathon in North Korea

How: Tens of thousands of supporters cheered marathoners.

Why: To commemorate Kim Il Sung's birthday & to share a good experience and new friendships to foreigners

My thought:
Anyway, both North Korea & South Korea are in war (since June 25th, 1950). So it is very hard to visit North Korea as a South Korean. Also, most foreigners have worried North Koreans because of their danger. But that marathon competition says North Korea may open its borders, and it can be to become 'United Korea' soon.

I found that story at this link: newsinlevels.com
