The layers of storytelling
Clayton Collins
For us here in Boston, it鈥檚 a story from a day-ahead time zone, and it鈥檚 one that won鈥檛 stand still.听South Korea has merited a news brief in four of the past six days and in bunches before that. Inciting incident: the South Korean president鈥檚 flirtation with martial law.听
Ann Scott Tyson is jumping in when deeper takes are needed: from Tokyo and Seoul on the regional stakes, and before that with a standback explainer, and then again from Seoul on the long arc of the political crisis.
Today, Ann reinterviews people she鈥檇 met on Seoul鈥檚 streets before. It鈥檚 a perspective on a societal shift, straight聽from the people living it.听
