At the Hogwarts School of Magic, young sorcerers not only received education, but also learned what friendship, betrayal, courage and first love are. The students were greatly impressed by the arrival of guests from other schools, among whom was Viktor Kram.
Victor
The first appearance of Krum came in the fourth book, when the Three Wizards Tournament was held at Hogwarts. Mages from France and Eastern Europe came to visit their English "colleagues."
The school from which Victor came was called Durmstrang. It was very different from two other educational institutions, because dark magic arts were also taught in it. Therefore, students evoked a mixture of fear and curiosity among their peers. True, Victor Krum himself hated dark magic and was disgusted with those who considered himself a follower of the famous magician Green de Wald. Dark wizards led by Green de Wald killed Victor's parents.
Krum was chosen to represent his school in a tournament. His friends and teacher arrived with him. The Bulgarian stood out from the general crowd of guests due to his high growth and powerful physique. As Harry noted, Victor Krum looked a little older than his years, but it was difficult to call him handsome. His gait was complicated by clubfoot and flat feet, he was constantly hunching, and a smile rarely visited his face. By nature, the Bulgarian seemed sullen and unsociable. However, only on earth was he so awkward. As he climbed on a broomstick into the air, he became the best among sorcerers.
Victor Krum and Hermione Granger
During the Tournament, Krum drew attention to Hermione, the protagonist's best friend. Shyly, he began to show her the first signs of attention. But the fact that the young witch liked the Bulgarian, everyone guessed already in the second test. Its meaning was that each of the participating wizards had to save a person dear to the heart. Krum had to save Hermione.
In honor of the Tournament, a ball was arranged for guests and hosts in the Hogwarty. And everyone was very surprised when Hermione and Victor Krum came to him together. Not without jealousy from friends. But it was obvious that the English sorceress liked her fan.
Young people had to part when the Tournament ended. But for some time after parting, they exchanged letters.
Life of Victor Krum after the Tournament
The young wizard, despite his success in sports and a serious attitude to communication with girls, was by no means popular. And although Hermione answered his signs of attention, she was not ready to leave her house and friends for Victor's sake.
The next time Krum visited England, when he was invited to the wedding of one of the Weasley brothers and the third participant in the Tournament. But only the reunion between Granger and Krum did not take place: the girl was in love with another. Then the Bulgarian drew attention to the groom's sister, Ginny. But again he lost, because she was in love with Harry Potter. And he answered her feelings.
Victor Krum has achieved great success in sports. He became a member of the Quidditch team and even participated in the World Cup. But in the final, his team was defeated. Unable to withstand disappointment, Krum ended his sports career. True, the desire to become a champion was stronger. After some time, he again entered the field for the national team.
Victor became more successful in his personal life. According to Joan Rowling, he found a lover in his native Bulgaria and married her.
Stanislav Yanevsky
Stanislav and his hero have a common homeland - they both were born in Bulgaria. Only the actor had more travels. He lived for some time in Israel and England. The young man himself was not going to become an actor. The beginning of his career was a chance.
Almost 600 actors claimed the role of the Bulgarian wizard. But Stanislava noticed the assistant to the actors and offered him. In her view, Victor Krum looked exactly like that. The actor liked the fans.
The role in the fourth film about the wizard Potter became Stanislav’s ticket to the big movie. After the film about the boy-who-survived, he played in several more films, and then starred in the penultimate film adaptation of Joan Rowling's books about Harry. But the scenes with him were then cut out and did not appear in the final version of the film shown in movie theaters.
The relationship between Victor Krum and Hermione has found many fans around the world. They write, draw and make videos about them. This story is popular, although it was told to the world more than ten years ago.
