There are so many famous people who had achieved great things in their lives. It would be nice if I could meet as many as possible. However, If I could meet only one person, then I would like to meet PSY, from South Korea, my home country. I have two reasons why I would like to meet him. First, I easily made Canadian friends because of PSY. When I was studying in Canada, it was January 5th, 2012, which was my first time studying in another country, so I was nervous and worried as to how I could live there. Surprisingly, Gangnam style, a song from PSY’s 7th album, was popular during that time so many Canadians tried to ask about Gangnam style after they realized that I was from South Korea. Therefore, I was able to make a lot of friends. If PSY did not come out with this song, then I might’ve had a harder time meeting people. Second, PSY’s English ability helped me to realize why I must study English. It was October 3rd, 2012, which was first time studying in the USA. During that time, I felt homesick so I really missed my family and friends and I questioned why I was learning English. However, I watched PSY’s interview on The Jonathan Ross Show on Youtube. PSY spoke English very well and many people laughed at his jokes. After I saw his interview, I was impressed that a non-native Speaker speaks English on a famous American TV show and it looked awesome and respectful. I began to study English harder than I previously did so it can improve my English skills. If I could meet PSY, then I will say thanks to him because if was not popular in the world then I might not study in the States. I hope that he makes more popular songs such as Gangnam style.
