The 229-strong contingent are all women believed to be in their 20s, and carefully selected by the regime to cheer for their national team.
The group is significantly larger than the 22 athletes who are competing in figure skating, hockey, skiing, and speed skating for North Korea.
Dubbed by netizens as Kim Jong Un’s “Army of Beauties”, the women have been widely talked about on social media.

There is no question that if cheering was an actual event at the Olympics, the North Koreans would take home the gold medal.
