- About Me
Hello, my name is Virgine. I have a degree in History from UEG and a second teaching degree in Pedagogy from UniCSul. I also hold a specialization in Media in Education from UFPel and a Master’s degree in Communication Sciences from UNISINOS. I have been researching East Asia, more specifically, South Korea – for over 15 years. My main interest lies in the Korean Wave (Hallyu), particularly its effects in Brazil, Latin America, the United States and the historical aspects of contemporary Korea. I am currently on the path to earning my PhD.
