A major goof-up occurred during the opening ceremony for the 2024 Paris Olympics on Friday night.Just as the 143-strong South Korean delegation paraded on their boats on the River Seine, the vessel carrying the athletes was accidentally introduced by an announcer as the "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" — the official name of North Korea in English.
It's honestly shocking that such an unforgivable mistake could ever happen again at the Olympics. Introducing South Korea as North Korea is such a deep insult that demonstrates complete ignorance and lack of basic world understanding. Deeply shameful and embarrassing. https://t.co/BJjD5YhQ6g— Raphael Rashid (@koryodynasty) July...

21 different countries won a swimming medal in Tokyo three years ago, including 11 who won a gold medal, but it wouldn't be fair to say parity reigned among the nations. The United States and Australia combined for 51 of the 111 swimming medals earned in Tokyo and more than half of the gold medals, with Team USA's 30 medals leading the way. Can either country extend its dominance to 2024?
