    Read excerpt

    Eurovision won't let winning countries involved in active armed conflict host the competition in another move from the famously political singing competition that is strictly apolitical. Presumably preparing for the possibility that they enter and win one day, South Korea is calling for a new push to formally end the Korean War.
