Anyone who followed Eurovision and its events behind the scenes during the past week, no doubt also came across posts on various social networks that showed the genuine friendship that developed between the vocalist of our representatives Bojan Cvjetićanin and the Finnish representative Kääri.

Our representatives, the guys of the group Joker Outand the Finnish representative Käärijaaccording to the media representative of our boys, they met in Amsterdam just over three weeks ago, when Bojan sang an infectious song to Fincu on the bus Cha Cha Cha. From here on, the relationship between Bojan and the Finnish representative is just history. A beautiful and sincere friendship blossomed between the two musicians. They seem to have become best friends in no time, and social media is bursting at the seams with posts of their reunion.
‘Bromance’ is an English term for a sincere friendship between two men. The word is a coinage of the words ‘bro’ (short for ‘brother’, which means brother) and the word ‘romance’.
‘Better than the original!’
Bojan and our ‘Jokers’ tried to meet as many people as possible during their Eurovision experience and introduce them to their work and our country. Not only were they recognized, the Jokers won over everyone who came by with their likability and infectious relaxedness. Well, the ‘bromance’ between Bojan and Kääri sprouted on the bus during the tour in Amsterdam. Bojan sang his song to the Finnish representative, even though the song is presented in Finnish. Käärijä couldn’t hide his excitement and after Bojan’s ‘performance’ was over, he happily shouted: “Better than the original!”
