SEOUL, Oct. 7 (Korea Bizwire) — Brazilians are flocking to the Korean Cultural Center in Sao Paulo, Brazil as it is hosting an exhibition in celebration of the country’s children’s month, October.
The center is hosting the Pinkfong Wonderstar Exhibition that introduces the ‘Pinkfong Baby Shark’ and other characters popular among children worldwide.
The exhibition comes with a photo zone that uses large-screen televisions and tablets, introducing various animation characters and interesting stories about them.
Visitors can engage in dance or puzzle games, as well as draw and color Pinkfong characters.
The center also runs a special program that brings public school students, many of whom are deprived of sufficient access to culture and art, to the exhibition as part of its objective of bringing the ‘warmth’ of the Korean Wave to Brazilian society.
The number of participants in the program has already exceeded 1,000 students, thanks to the center’s large buses.
