 The South Korean government has continuously proposed military talks, Red Cross talks and requests for the North to participate in the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics, but the North Korean People's Republic of Korea has been unresponsive for some time, causing controversy.But North Korea's participation in the 2018 Winter Olympics has been sputtering after its top leader Kim Jong-un signaled his intention to participate in the 2018 Winter Olympics in his New Year's message for 2018.Since then, there has been a flurry of inter-Korean relations, even after the successful inter-Korean summit in April 2018, but the dispute over the Korea Passing has flared up again due to conflicts over denuclearization and the North's unilateral disregard for the South Korean side.
