North Korean figure skating duo Ryom Tae-ok and Kim Ju-sik held their first practice in South Korea. 

Joined by their coach and two staff members, the pair practiced for around 40 minutes at Gangneung Ice Arena on Friday morning. 

After a brief warmup, the pair performed the death spiral, lifts and the toe loop jump. 

Ryom and Kim are among the ten North Korean athletes who arrived in South Korea the previous day. A total of 22 North Korean athletes will take part in the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, including 12 female ice hockey players who arrived last week. 

The figure skating pair are the only North Korean athletes to have qualified for the PyeongChang Olympics. Although they missed the deadline to confirm their participation, the International Olympic Committee decided to allow them to compete.
