The location is very significant. South Korea and North Korea are not on friendly terms. But the Olympics may be bringing them closer together, politically.
North Korea is a "dictatorship." That means, one person rules it. That person is Kim Jong-un, known as the "Supreme Leader." He is known for being extremely strict and harsh with his country's people. He keeps his country separated from the rest of the world. It is usually hard to know what is going on in North Korea, because free communication is not allowed in or out of the country.
But the Winter Olympics may help to thaw relations between North and South Korea.
