12. Describe a famous person who is not from your country you would like
to meet.
It would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity if I had the pleasure
to meet the four gorgeous girls who comprise the K pop supergroup
BlackPink, one of the biggest recording artists in the world.
I’ve loved them since they debuted in 2016 - consisting of Jisoo,
Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa, four South Korean girls. BlackPink is
renowned as the biggest girl group in the world. After debuting,
they have broken so many world records. With two big hits "Kill
This Love" and "How You Like That", which each set the record for
the most viewed videos in a 24-hour period, their greatness simply
cannot be questioned! Additionally, they also hold two Guinness
World Records! Each of the girls has received many
acknowledgments from committees and associations all over the
world for their contributions to the music industry.
They also enjoy the admiration of tens of thousands of fans due
to their command of the English language. Although I am not a
big fan of K-pop music generally, I am fascinated by how they
answer reporters in English. Furthermore, they always present
themselves in an exquisite manner.
If I had the chance to meet them I’d snap loads of pictures which I
would use to decorate the corner of my study where I work. What’s
more, I would suggest an intimate dinner together so I could chat to
them and be inspired by their positive attitudes.

13. Describe a famous person you follow on social media.
It is quite common among people to follow celebrities on social media rather
than just watching them on screen or reading about them in magazines, as it
gives them the feeling of being virtually connected with them. So today, I
would like to talk about a celebrity that I adore and follow on Instagram.
His name is Nakamoto Yuta, although being Japanese, he is currently
participating as a member of the Korean boy group NCT. The year 2016 was
when I knew about him through an article that announced the debut of his
group with the MV “Fire Truck”. Back then I was interested in learning Japanese
so his name caught my attention and I was immediately hooked
by his outstanding performance. I have been following him on social media
since then. I really loved the way he sings and the way he expresses the feeling
of the song. Plus, Yuta has always worked seriously to give high-quality music
products. Not to mention that he has a really attractive smile.
Besides talent, Nakamoto Yuta is beloved for his good-heartedness. He is
a thoughtful and gracious person who cares the most for his fans. On
Instagram, he always posts motivational thoughts, pictures, and videos that
relate to his work. Sometimes he would live stream on Instagram as an
opportunity to interact with worldwide fans – when he takes off his celebrity
side and becomes a close friend to his fans, to talk about his days and even
give the fans helpful life advice with determination and positivity.
I admired Yuta since I got motivated by his personality and lifestyle. I believe he
has achieved the zenith of success in his life due to
being dedicated and putting in his best efforts in working.
