This seems to be flying under the radar in some outlets but I think it's interesting to share: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/feb/04/unified-korean-womens-ice-hockey-team-play-debut-match

 

Even if it's just symbolic, at a time of heated political tensions in the peninsula small moves like this in non-politicised areas do wonders for morale and unity among both sides of the DMZ.

 

Last year a similar thing happened when Syrian footballers opposed to the government and living abroad came home to join the lads who had stayed local to join forces under one Syria representing everyone. Such was the bond that they got one goal away from the World Cup, but Australia snagged the last spot.
