Question for Cuba: If you had an opportunity to get a message to all the people in the world. What would that message be?
If I have a message for people around the world it will be that never give up. I am a living example that dreams, if you put the work into them, they do come true. Dreams with work, when you have the whole goal. It becomes a truth and I think talent is not the most important thing. If you keep on going and you keep on going.

Question for Korea: If you could go back to any moment in your life. What would be that moment and why?

Question for Brazil: Do you think the stereotype of beauty is good shape and white skin? Bring your opinion.
