North Korea News from AFC.com

"Kim Jung-hoon’s men recently finished a training camp in Antalya, Turkey, during which the Chollima played five matches."


"For the AFC Challenge Cup (February 16-27 in Sri Lanka), a reserve side will represent DPR Korea. This squad, under coach Cho Dong-sub, mainly comprises players from the u-17 team which made a great impression in the 2005 FIFA U-17 World Cup. There are three Japan-based members in this group."


For the main team, March will be a busy month with dates being decided for a camp in Chile, Venezuela and Panama.

Come May, the scene shifts to Germany and Switzerland where Kim is expected to put his men through the paces again.

The DPR Koreans hit the home stretch in May-June with a lengthy spell of training in Zimbabwe before moving to South Africa for the tournament proper.
