South Korea won bronze and North Korea bagged silver in the mixed doubles, and South Korea’s Lim Jong-hoon celebrated the occasion by whipping out a phone for a picture. The Korean War ended in 1953 with an armistice, and no peace treaty has ever been signed. Olympics organizers have “deeply apologized” to South Korea over a “human error” that saw its 143 athletes wrongly introduced as North Korean at the opening ceremony. The mishap occurred last Friday, when the South Korean athletes made their debut on a boat cruising down the River Seine. The official name of South Korea is the Republic of Korea.
