3. BTS Rap Monster

Besides studying in New Zealand, Rap Monster studied English by watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S which if you don’t know, is an American TV series. His mum bought him all the DVDS and he would watch it, rewinding at parts to listen to them speak. He watched the whole series over and over again and perfected it. He’s very fluent in English now. Namjoon said that US/American hip hop really influenced him as well, so maybe that was his driving motivation. He would have also picked up on English while traveling/touring.

4. BLACKPINK Jennie

Jennie was born in Anyang, South Korea by the name Jennie Kim. Jennie grew up in Auckland, New Zealand until returning in high school. When she moved to Seoul, South Korea, she immediately became a trainee of YG Entertainment in 2010. She was raised abroad, so she is fluent in speaking in English. She is also fluent in Korean and can speak a little Japanese. She was only 14 years old when she joined YG, but she has proved to many that she has a lot of potential in her. She has also collaborated with her fellow YG artists before she was cast as a member of Black Pink. Jennie is said to be the possible leader of the group, but after the band debuted, there was no leader due to their similar ages.
