Park gives pep talk to Korean residents in Brazil
By Kim Kwang-tae
SAO PAULO, April 25 (Yonhap) -- President Park Geun-hye, on a state visit to Brazil, met with about 200 South Koreans living in the South American country on Saturday and gave them a pep talk, an aide said.
Those who attended the meeting with Park included Shin Hye-ja, a 74-year-old woman who visited Seoul in 1975 along with other South Koreans living abroad. At that time, Park, as a stand-in first lady after her mother was assassinated by a North Korean agent, met Shin.
Park is set to leave for Seoul later in the day, winding up a 12-day South America trip that also took her to Colombia, Peru and Chile.
