North Korean Olympic official "angry" at flag gaffe

North Korean Olympic official Um Chang is furious at last night's flag mistake.

North Korean Olympic official Um Chang has said that he is "angry" about the blunder that led to South Korea's flag being shown before North Korea's fixture against Colombia last night.

The Olympic organisers have apologised to DPR Korea over the issue, but International Olympic Committee member Chang revealed that the country is still furious at the mistake.

"Of course the people are angry," Chang told Reuters. "If your athlete got a gold medal and [saw] the flag of some other country, what happens?"

North Korea went on to win last night's match 2-0.
