Back in 1953, during the Korean War, Korean veterans and Canadian veterans played ice hockey games on the frozen Imjin river. After 65 years, thanks to the PyeongChang winter Olympic games, Canadian embassy revived the ‘Imjin Classic Ice Hockey Game’ at the same place. Three old Canadian veterans who really fought at Korean War, visited Korea again and had a game with young Korean hockey players on the Imjin river.
