I also have a friend and he likes Blackpink and he recommends them for us for the whole day – when we’re having lunch, when we finish work, every time. He also buy the CDs from them. They need money to catch up them.

Once he was going on a activity and there was a man come up to the stage with a knife and he got a hurt.

No, I think if I want to be a celebrity, the only is the money because they have pressures, I don’t want that. They barely eat something. I think some of them they do it unhealthy way because if they got a role to act then they have to lose their weight in one week or one month.

There are under watch all the time. I think good looking can help you a lot. You can see her or he at the first sight and you can know is she a good looking person or not. But, you have to take more time to see one’s talent.

For me, I don’t need act very well in my life because I don’t want to be an actor. But, if I sing well, my friend will envy me. I can sing anywhere and anytime, but I can’t act like that.

Revised: 

I also have a friend and he likes Blackpink so he recommended them to us every day – when we’re having lunch, when we finish work, and so on every time. He also buys CDs from them. They need money to follow them to their schedules/keep up with them.  

Once he was attending/participating in an activity and a man came up on stage with a knife and he got hurt.

No, I think if I want to be a celebrity, the only reason is for the money because they have a lot of pressure and I don’t want that. They barely eat anything. I think some of them they do it in an unhealthy way because if they have to act in a role then they have to lose weight/shed some weight in one week or one month.

There are under watch all the time. I think good looks can help you a lot. You can see her or him for the first time and you will know if she/he is a good looking person or not. But, you need more time to see/discover one’s talent.

For me, I don’t want to act very well in my life because I don’t want to be an actor. But, if I sing well then my friends will be envious of me. I can sing anywhere and anytime, but I can’t act whenever I like.
