The North and South Korean gold medal ping pong pals separated for ever

A joint North and South Korean hockey team is competing in the Winter Olympics - but it isn't the first time the two foes have joined forces.

In 1991, they sent a unified team to the World Table Tennis Championships. That was where South Korean champ Hyun Jung-hwa met the North's Ri Pun-hui.

The two friends led their team to sporting glory and were then separated for ever. This is their story.
