Asian Games organisers apologised after North Korea's anthem played for South Korea
At the Asian Games in Japan, organizers issued an apology after the South Korean men's hockey team was mistakenly played the North Korean national anthem. South Korean coach Min Tae-seok characterized the situation as a "gravely serious issue" that should not have occurred. The North Korean anthem and other related symbols are prohibited in South Korea, considering that the two nations remain technically in a state of war.
