Recently Frenkel and Hernandez introduced a kind of "Langlands duality" for characters of semisimple Lie algebras. We will discuss a representation-theoretic interpretation of their duality using quantum analogues of exceptional isogenies. Time permitting we will also discuss a branching rule and relations to Littelmann paths.
