On May 6th, the Regional Qualifiers for Quiz on Korea were held at the Korean Cultural Center in Brazil. A total of 22 participants competed in the event, and Tatiana Yamaji, a student from the Korean Cultural Center in Brazil, emerged victorious, securing her spot in the final stage of Quiz on Korea, which will take place in Korea.


Although Tatiana is an external participant, she demonstrated impressive skills, having completed Level 6 at the Sejong Center of the Korean Cultural Center last year. In the thrilling final, she fiercely competed against Victoria Ribiti, a student at the same level.


Tatiana mentioned that a few years ago, when she traveled to Korea, her proficiency in Korean was limited, so she had to communicate in English. However, after studying for an extended period at the Korean Cultural Center, she managed to improve her language skills, and she stated that her confidence grew even further after achieving victory in this tournament. Tatiana expressed her joy at qualifying for the final stage in Korea and is scheduled to appear in a broadcast representing Brazil at the final tournament, which will take place in September.
