This year's Winter Olympics in South Korea is just under five weeks away now, but the DPRK has yet to indicate whether it's sending a team.

The country's IOC representative told reporters in Beijing on Saturday that he was waiting for official confirmation. However, the DPRK and South Korea are to hold high-level talks next week and this matter is expected to be on the agenda. It comes after Seoul and Washington agreed to postpone their usual military exercises in the region.
