The 2012 London Olympics haven't even officially started, yet there has already been controversy.
During the first day of women's football (soccer) North Korea and Colombia were set to play.
As the players were introduced, it quickly became apparent that the maker of the introduction video had screwed up.
Instead of the North Korean flag being seen with the country's players, the video showed South Korea's flag.
North Korea's team walked off the field, and only returned over an hour later, when the issue had been corrected.
Olympic and English officials, all the way up to Prime Minister Cameron, have apologized for the blunder.
