Delegations from the two Koreas met Monday to hammer out details about the North sending a troupe of artistic performers to next month's Winter Olympics in the South.

The meeting in the border village of Panmunjom was expected to have focused on a schedule for the North's famed all-female Moranbong music band, whose members are reported to have been handpicked by the North's leader, Kim Jong Un.

The North has said its delegation to the Winter Games in Pyeongchang would include artists, officials, journalists and others, as well as athletes.

South Korea's Unification Ministry said the size of North Korea's delegation will be finalized when North Korea meets with the International Olympic Committee on January 20.

North Korea's recent conciliatory moves in connection with the Olympics are widely viewed as an attempt to ease tensions after last year's nuclear and ballistic missile tests.

韓國和朝鮮的代表團星期一會見，最后商定朝鮮向韓國下個月舉辦的冬季奧運會派出一個表演藝術(shù)團的問題。

在雙方交界的板門店村的會談很可能聚焦于有名的朝鮮牡丹峰樂團的日程。據(jù)報道，牡丹峰樂團的成員都是朝鮮領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人金正恩一手挑選。

朝鮮說，它的平昌冬奧會代表團除運動員外還有包括藝術(shù)家、官員、記者和其他人員。

韓國統(tǒng)一部說，朝鮮代表團的規(guī)模將于1月20號朝鮮與國際奧林匹克委員會會談的時候確定。

朝鮮最近在冬奧會問題上的和解姿態(tài)被廣泛認為是努力化解它去年進行核武器及彈道導(dǎo)彈試射引起的緊張。
