South Korea will send non-Olympic skiers to the North's Masikryong Ski Resort for two days of joint training as part of a series of planned events ahead of the Winter Olympics in South Korea.
A group of South Korean inspectors visited the venues in the North last week to look around the facilities, the airport and road conditions. However, it was reported that the North blamed "biased" and "insulting" media coverage from South Korea on the North's planned events for the Olympics.
The North was also very angry at South Korean media reports of a possible military parade in Pyongyang on February 8th, a day before the games begin.
South Korea's unification ministry said the North's sudden decision was regrettable adding that the North should uphold all the remaining agreements that have been made.
