Paulo Visentini, a professor of International Relations at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, talks about the book he wrote with the support of Helena Melchionna and Analúcia Pereira that tells the story of the Korean Revolution. The professor explains that North Korea is seen by the West as a caricature and its leaders and customs are often ridiculed. He explains to Ederson Granetto how the division of the Korean peninsula occurred shortly after the Second World War, comments on the reasons for the Korean War between 1950 and 1953 and talks about the communist regime in Pyongyang, whose power has been passed from father to son since it began in 1948 - the so-called Zuche socialism that went through difficult times during the end of the former Soviet Union, but recovered and today remains firm in its independence from the great world powers.
