North Korean Cheerleaders

Cheerleaders

This is just a little insight into the North Korean mentality and the results of 50 years of a "personality cult". When the North sends athletes to the South, they send along a few hundred of the most lovely young women as "cheerleaders". The South Korean press goes ga-ga over them. These recent Universiade games were marked by North Korean reporters attacking South Korean protesters, resulting in the protesters being restricted and South Korean crowds cheering North Korean teams and booing US athletes.
