    It's interesting how missing Korean voices are in the American media's discussion of the current North Korean crisis.

        native south koreans are jaded from the antics of north korea, not completely apathetic though. north korea has become a buzz word in the US

        Is it ever different? Our TV talking heads experts in everything. Why get someone from the region to weigh in? Same with MENA, Europe etc

        And when they do interview a local, its usually just some random person, not a local journalist or expert

        Exactly right. US commenters frame the looming crisis in terms of how scary it is for America rather than South Korea and Japan

        It's pretty scary for diverse cities like Vancouver, BC, Seattle, WA & Anchorage, AK. We're IN RANGE of this madness, too.

        In SK, right & centre politicians label other anti-war, pro-talk politicians as N.K spy. They're too occupied with the upcoming election.
