Naegohyang's women's team will face South Korea's Suwon in the semifinals of the Asian Champions League.

The South Korean Football Association says Naegohyang has submitted a list of players and officials expected to travel to Suwon. However, North Korean state media has not reported on the upcoming trip.

During the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, athletes from the two countries marched together and competed as a joint hockey team. By the end of that year, North Korean players participated in a table tennis tournament in South Korea, but since then relations between the countries have become frosty again and sports exchanges have ceased.
