A simple selfie taken by two young Olympic gymnasts has already become one of the iconic moments of the Rio games.
South Korea’s Lee Eun Ju and and North Korean gymnast Hong Un Jong shared an amicable moment that belied the bitter feud between their home nations.
The pair were seen chatting and laughing together as they prepared to compete in the qualification for the artistic women's gymnastics.
Moments later they posed for a selfie together.
North Korea and South Korea are are well known for their prowess in the sport and both have produced many world-class gymnasts.
Their respective political leaders, on the other hand, have found it a bit more difficult to be quite as friendly as the Olympians representing them.
