Virgil Ciulin is a Romanian comedian known for his stand-up performances and his participation in the comedy show iUmor, where he emerged as the winner of Season 11. He has a background of growing up in the countryside in a modest family and has spoken humorously about his childhood experiences, which include anecdotes about Christmas celebrations at home. Virgil transitioned from creating content for his series "Istoria cu Virgil" to focusing on stand-up comedy around 2017. He felt a shift towards stand-up as the comedy scene in Romania was evolving. Despite finding the experience on iUmor's stage challenging due to its chaotic environment, he appreciated the opportunity as it helped him gain more self-confidence and become more comfortable on stage. Following his win, Ciulin aimed to invest his prize money in equipment that would aid his career, such as a new laptop and editing software. He also planned to tour with his stand-up group, performing across various cities in Romania.
