Woodruff back in North Korea
Nearly three years after his first trip there, ABC’s Bob Woodruff returned to North Korea this week to report on the historic concert the New York Philharmonic is set to perform in Pyongyang on Tuesday. The concert will be the first performance in North Korea by an American orchestra.
Woodruff will begin reporting live from North Korea today on various ABC newscasts. He plans to remain in the country through next week, contributing reporting to PBS’ coverage of the concert and covering North Korea’s ongoing denuclearization process.
Woodruff first visited North Korea in June 2005. Since being seriously wounded in Iraq in January 2006, he has traveled to Cuba, Syria and Jordan.
