We Talk: SCO cultural connections in the eyes of a Kyrgyz student

The year 2026 marks the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). This year's SCO Summit will be held in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, from August 30 to September 3. In this video, CGTN Stringer talks with Adel, a young Kyrgyz national, to hear her unique bond with Chinese culture. Adel developed curiosity about Chinese culture through the Chinese game Genshin Impact and Chinese beauty and fashion trends before gradually falling deeply in love with it. She has observed that a growing number of young people in Central Asia are being influenced by Chinese pop culture, and various cultural products are building bridges for cross-border youth exchanges. Adel believes that this emotional connection, seemingly soft, is extremely powerful, and future international cooperation will be built on the friendship born from such connections. 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmP_Ybj-jws Impossible Challenge: Gymnastics Boy Arat Hosseini from Iran! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sxX--U4c8w Impossible Challenge: How to calm babies in 5 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3q9sXM7WA
