COVID-19 Overcoming Prayer Video Re-screened in Brazil View original image

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heung-soon] The Overseas Cultural Promotion Service of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism announced on the 6th that the Brazilian Korean Cultural Center will re-screen the video "Cheer Up! Cheer Up!!," which was originally screened last May to wish for overcoming the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), from the 7th to the 9th (local time) to commemorate the first anniversary of its relocation to Paulista Street in S?o Paulo.


"Cheer Up! Cheer Up!!" is a 3-minute video. It breathes life into Yoo Young-ho's "Greetingman" by depicting the heart and blood vessels, and includes the Korean and Portuguese words for "hope" alongside images symbolizing the national flag, mugunghwa (rose of Sharon), and the statue of Jesus. Greetingman is a sculpture representing a sky-blue giant reminiscent of Goryeo celadon, bowing its head at a 15-degree angle in greeting.



When this video was screened last May, it delivered a message of hope and comfort to the Brazilian people struggling with COVID-19, receiving great responses in both Korea and Brazil. The Korean Cultural Center plans to upload this video on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/kccbrazil) and its YouTube channel (Centro Cultural Coreano no Brasil) so that it can be viewed throughout Brazil.
