Kim Jong Un’s sister will travel to South Korea for Olympics

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s sister, an increasingly prominent figure in the country’s leadership, will be part of the North’s delegation to the South Korean Winter Olympics.

Kim Yo Jong will be the first member of North Korea’s ruling family to visit South Korea since the end of the 1950-53 Korean War.

South Korean President Moon Jae In’s office welcomed North Korea’s decision, saying it showed the North’s willingness to cooperate in easing tensions.
