![10 Korean Actors Whose English Will BLOW YOUR MIND! [Ft HappySqueak]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/UbyFla4HHx4/mqdefault.jpg)
I watched Lay"s English get better and better every year. Now, he can confidently hold a conversation in English. Pure hard work and perseverance.
Arthur Chen is the most fluent.
Yes surprised with Shawn Dou😮
Shawn is Canadian, so of course he can speak English well
@@EndangsArtCave good to know🙏🏽
@@EndangsArtCaveHe didn't move there until he was ten and you can tell it by his accent. He may be fluent - as in having a good vocabulary and good grammar, but he doesn't sound like a native speaker. You can tell it's not his first language. The OP is right, Arthur Chen was by far the most native-sounding person in this video.
Arthur was born and raised in americe, he even hold american citizenship and pasport, but in 2020 he let go his american citizenship due to chinese strict rules
@@wandamaximoffscarletwitch8535 Not born and raised. He studied in China until he was 16 years old and spent 3 years in high school in the US and then returned to China.
What a lot of people don't realize is that to be considered "fluent" you must not only understand and speak a language, you must also be able to read and write in that language.
Arthur Chen is the only one on this list who speaks English. Kudos to LiuYiFei and the guy who studied in Canada. The rest has passable English speaking ability.
Wondered why are fans so surprised that the Chinese actors can speak good English. Here in Malaysia, many Chinese can speak good and even excellent English, and we are not actors. Not a big deal actually. And in Malaysia, the Malay language is our national language, not English. There’s a Malay proverb, “ Telur sebiji, rioh sekampung “ literally meaning “ lay an egg and the whole village knows”; meaning “making so much fuss over some small achievement “
Bragging much? No one cares what Chinese people in Malaysia can speak.
There are very, very, very, very few Chinese in Malaysia and their Singaporean counterparts can even speak proper English. The Malays are even worst. The only way one does speak to these locals is to use singular words to converse. But not to worry, Australians and the New Zealanders have the same problem.
Agreed with @coFFee123
We Malaysian speaks and write multi languages.
My daughter speaks and Write English, Chinese and Malay and she speaks also Cantonese, Mandarin, Hokkien and German.
We Malaysia are multiculture.
So nothing amazing.
Monoethnic country with emphasis on their mother tongue like Japan & Korea. They can 'survive' without knowing English.
Here got banana, can't speak mother tongue and shamelessly being proud of it and instead learn English.
Isn't rhat different???
Jackson Wang is pretty proficient as well, and not just in English, I believe Korean too.
Jackson grew up in Hong Kong where English is common and he is a KPop idol so yeah he speaks Korean too. 😊
true he comes across my mind, but he's an idol whilst the video mentioned about actors/actresses :)
He is a babe too!
he knows 7 languages
He speaks fluent english, mandarin, cantonese, shaghainese, korean. And a little of other languages as well!
You forgot Riley Wang. His English is better than some of the actors on your list.
Riley is Taiwanese, emigrated with his family to Canada when he was 10 years old. He holds Canadian nationality.
Oh my Riley 😂😂❤❤
There's another Chinese actor with good command of english, though he rarely speaks it - Wei Lu (Leo Wu). I was surprised by his fluent pronunciations and ease in which he speaks.
Why is English a big deal?
@@AN-Reasonstolove Try to speak fluently language with absolutely different phonetical structure and you`ll understand.
@@AN-ReasonstoloveBecause it gives the actors the opportunity to work outside China and potentially make more money or fame.
@@dianamckinney8237 China is very strict with these actors and for good reason. It is easier for a HongKong or Taiwanese actor to venture out.
@@AN-Reasonstolove can you expantiate, how is china strict on their actors on venturing out? Is it about roles
Wang Ayu, Leo Wu, and Zhao Jin Mai are also actors who speak fluent English
Riley Wang, who was raised in Canada, speaks fluent English.
@elizabethrobbins8580 I think the video is more on the actors/actresses that was raised in China and can speak fluent English
Обожаю Zhang Yixing ❤прекрасный певец, рэпер, танцор, и замечательный актер👍💜❤️
Arthur Chen ❤
Good video but you’re wrong for including dilreba,weing sonlong and wang yibo;they don’t speak fluent or proficient English just few words like many actors in China can do so they are not fluent and shouldn’t have been on the list.Also how on earth did you forget JACKSON WANG?!
It says actors .
Jackson is not a an actor . He's an idol
Wang yibo my favorite ❤
All Of Them The Male Actors did surprise me with their flurrent English
I'm an American. When I lived in China, I worked with a girl who I honestly thought was an ABC (American born Chinese). I knew her for months, maybe even a year, before I found out she was actually Chinese and had never lived outside of China. She was just that amazing at learning the language and accent. I have a pretty good Chinese accent when I'm speaking Mandarin, but I'm nowhere near fluent. She had both the fluency and the accent. I'm still a bit in awe, lol.
Why is this so amazing?
I'm Dutch myself and still live here in the Netherlands but i speak read and write english perfectly fine no problem at all.
English is not that hard to learn.
@@DidierWierdsma6335 Obviously you're not all that bright. I know plenty of people who can speak, read and write English "fine." There is a difference between that and someone who sounds indistinguishable from a person who grew up in America. That type of person is very rare and I'm almost positive you're not one of them.
@@AdeleiTeillana Rare??? please don't be so arrogant i myself have had plenty of conversations with native English speakers some of them even thought that i was an American LOL wich i'm not.
Sounding and speaking like an American is not that special or hard it's very easy😊
You Americans always think and believe that the rest of the world are complete idiots well i hate to break your little bubble we are definitely not SORRY.
Once again American English is very easy it's not that special.
I hope that you have a great day?
And greetings from the Netherlands🇳🇱
I really root for a phenomenal actor at such a young age Jackson Yee. I really do this person has so much potential
Wang Yibo sang theme songs for several Hollywood movies when he was in the Uniq. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Jackie Chan,jet li, Donnie yen, they speak good English too 🙄
donnie yen is from the US might have something to do with it lol
Jackie's accent is too heavy!
Maybe they weren't added because they're related more to Hong Kong than mainland China
Jet Li was born in Beijing according to Wikipedia 👀
Arthur Chen Feiyu❤❤❤
Zhang yixing 😘
The most handsome men in the world in the cinema are Chinese and South Korean,what is it in the food they eat.Singers as well they are so cute and good looking ,they are so adorable to look at ,perfect noses perfect profile just unbelievable ,I wonder if the women they marry just stare at them all day long or they carry their photo to stare ,you can say I’m obsessed with their dramas.
🙄
a) Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
b) They wear makeup, or at least foundation and concealer, far more than Western men do. If a woman looks better with makeup, then so will a man (if it's done right.)
@@AdeleiTeillanabut let's just admit,most Chinese male actors look like (almost) exactly the same with or without makeup - which I can't tell about female actresses unfortunately
@@AdeleiTeillana
Don't like men wearing make up and looking feminine. They look disgusting. The men look fine without all that stuff.
Most have done plastic surgery (facial)
Shoun Dou,is fluent,Xukai,all amazing actor.❤😊
Zhang Yixing 💜
Shawn duo is my favorite ❤❤
Lay’s English is even better now. He also speaks Korean
Ok, some explanation since there seem to be a lot of people who do not understand why it's "an accomplishment" or "a big deal" that Chinese actors and actresses speak fluent English: obviously none of you understand how differently Chinese is pronounced than English. English is not hard to learn, yes, correct. It's not such a big deal if someone can be fluent and have a good pronounciation of English, yes, correct. However many well educated Chinese can speak, write and understand English but their spoken English can be quite rough if they try to pronounce English the same way you pronounce Chinese. It's been a challenge to learn to pronounce Chinese correctly because I have to use the tongue in my mouth differently than when I speak English or my native tongue Finnish. I watched a movie with Orlando Bloom and Chinese actors like Wu Lei in it. No subtitles, and when they spoke English, I honestly could not understand and make out what they were saying, I only understood Orlando. So just because you have a good vocabulary, got good grades in English at school, can write it perfectly and understand what is said in English, it does not guarantee that, as a Chinese speaking English, your pronounciation is accurate, you speak fluently or that your accent sounds Native American or British etc. Why I'm impressed by some of the actor's English here is because I've heard other Chinese actors and actresses speaking English and it is... how should I put it... like pieces of heavy logs of wood falling out of their mouths, it doesn't sound beautiful, flowing, light. For example Crystal Liu and Chen Fei Yu on this list, it was like music to my ears. But when for example one of my favorite actors Wu Lei speaks it kind of hurts my ears a bit because it's not as perfect as I'd hoped based on people claiming he is so fluent in English. And when my favorite actor Wang He Di speaks English... oh my, then I just take it as comedy and laugh to myself at how adorable he is because he's English is just horrific 😂 Yes, Wu Lei is good at English, understands and speaks well, but here we're talking about some people who speak English so well it brings out the beauty of the language instead of butchering it and makes you feel like you're listening to a native English speaker. But with nativily Chinese speaking I find it more impressive if they can speak both English and Chinese accurately, perfectly and beautifully because it means they understand the differences of languages, how you are supposed to pronounce them, how to place the tongue in the mouth when speaking English and when speaking Chinese. If you're not a language nerd you won't probably understand what is the big deal here, but for me, it's the difference between feeling bliss and pleasure when someone speaks it right and feeling torture and discomfort when someone is butchering the language. Just like the announcer on this video absolutely slaughtering the beautiful Chinese language when she says the Chinese names, just horrific to hear 😬😱
Jackson wang
汤唯 lived and studied drama at an university in London for two years and her English is quite good with a tinge of London accent.
Shawn Dou was born in British Columbia, Canada. And Jackson wang is British Hong Kong. So I'm not surprised at all
How is Jackson british???
@@tatianalp2847Jackson was born in 1994. Hong Kong was under British rule until 1997. Hope that helps!
Wu Lei ❤
Arthur chan was born in the states
Steven Zhang and Arthur chen ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Evan Lin from Crush .
Flawless english .🎉🎉🎉
His Piano story sounds so much like SHINee Jonghyun's story. Jonghyun's mom wanted him to study piano but he didn't like it.
I wasn't surprised that Shawn Dou could speak fluent english. He lived in Canada for a few years and went to high school in Vancouver. I think he has a dual citizenship, so does Song Yiren or Ireine Song
Angelababy and Arthur chen really surprised me I was not expecting that
Arthur chen is a U.S citizen and studied in Boston. Well , he dropped his citizenship for chinese when he turned 18.
xiao zhan is also fluent in.english
You're lying,he's pronunciation is very bad
Korean actor and singer Ko Eunsung speaks perfect english, perfect french (I am french-speaking) and perfect spanish. He also sings in german.
I think some of them are oversea Chinese like Mark Chao and Shawn Dao.
You missed Mark Chao! 😅
Exactly! I thought so to! Mark Chao speaks very fluent English😂!
@@carollo488 yup! And he attended Canadian univ and lives there! Obviously, his English is flawless. 😘
Mark Chao spoke English in the drama "The Heart".
I just finished watching Divas hit the road season 5…and I just realise wang anyu speaking skill is very decent and his accent is so good like western people….very attractive 😊😊
OMG! Don’t you guys know most this guys grew up in English speaking countries 🤪. Hong Kong guys? No surprise.❤
Arthur chen is most fluent of all them.
Some would argue Mark Chao should be on the list as a native English speaker although he's Taiwanese Canadian dual national not Chinese Canadian. He's in Cdramas though so worth mentioning. I've heard him speak English and he speaks it fluently with a Canadian accent.
Without any doubt he most fluent is Arthur Chen
He was born and growing up in america, he even hold american citizenship and pasport, but in 2020 he let go his america citizenship due to china rules
The criteria for this list should be speaking English without a script or notes. Speaking a sentence or two in a movie doesn't mean your English is mind blowing. The actor should be able to speak fluently during conversations or interviews. I disagree with a few of these 10 actors.
Crystal Liu is my favourite Chinese actress she beautiful, n extraordinary talented n well educated
She’s from my city Wuhan where I was born also 😎
Julio Iglesias sang a song in Mandarin but does not speak a word of the language. This reminds me of Song Weilong in the clip you showed, which does not prove that he can even speak English in real life. Some of the people on this list, for example Wang Yibo, do not speak English fluently at all, at best just a few words here and there but speak, no he does not speak English..
Hate these types of videos because how is it mind blowing? One is just helping to enforce the false narrative that languages has something to do with ethnicity, when anyone regardless of how they look, and their background can become fluent in any language. I speak of experience as I’m adopted. Still in this time and age people get shocked when they hear me speak fluent Norwegian and English, like dhu… growing up in the 90’s and 2000’s, besides learning English as my 2nd language in school, English was everywhere especially on TV, and of course pop culture like music: MTV. Some might claim it’s easier for us Scandinavians because a Norwegian and English are both related Germanic languages, but I know immigrants and foreigners who lives here who comes from totally different cultures and languages not even Indo European, who wasn’t born here nor grew up here, speak in fluently Norwegian. Anyone can become good at anything as long as they have the passion, drive, grit, and work hard at it…
You are speaking for your own culture/country only. Literally no American will ever be surprised or even raise an eyebrow at someone who looks Chinese (or Indian or Nigerian or Hispanic) speaking fluent English. I doubt most Brits, Canadians or Australians would either. This video is not mind blowing and it's not reinforcing the "false narrative that languages have something to do with ethnicity" because there IS NO SUCH NARRATIVE in English speaking countries. It doesn't exist. Maybe like seventy years ago, in rural areas, but not anymore. I have encountered this attitude before, but not in an English speaking country. In China, they do assume that non-Chinese (racially) can't possibly speak Chinese fluently while also assuming that people of Chinese descent born and raised overseas should be able to speak it fluently. But this is just not a thing in America. Nobody in this country of every single race and ethnicity thinks that language is tied to ethnicity like that and it's honestly stupid that you think that's a thing in the English speaking world. This video isn't mind-blowing to any native English speaker, it's just admiring the actors who have learned English and speak it well.
Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li was famous at their time in Hollywood
Yibo Eng is not bad as well, I think it’s cute when he speaks English 😊😊😊😊
Jackson Yee: It's my owner（honour) to be here...cesion（session）😂😂
Funny if you think it's good English!
The fact people think speaking English is a big deal. English is a low vibrational language. Im here trying to study Mandarin
Jackson Wang too❤
Shawn Duo looks very hot without makeup.
Hey guys , Shwan Dou was raised in Canada .Speaking fluent is just normal .
Shawn Dou Is grown up At Vancouver of course
Ni Ni speaks very very good English too ☺️
Dilraba is a prodigy
Song WeiLong looks cute. Hope more dramas or movies with him.
These movies were just your personal favourite...
I cant even say hi in Chinese so hey, you all are superb lol 😂
English is the hardest Languanges for me. English really destroy my brain.
There's a whole long list of Chinese actors from Hong Kong, China who can speak good english. Donnie Yen, Andy Lau, Tony Leung, Jackie Chan, Fala Chen, Kelly Chen, the list goes on and on
Andy Lau, Jackie Chan, tony leung’s English isn’t good. Donnie’s English couldn’t be considered good either for someone who grew up in the states.
Riley Wang 👍
You missed out Wuleiii
Speak English will make you improve, keep it up ❤
Surprised Nicholas Tse wasn’t in this.
I would expect any actor or actress that lived or studied outside of China in a primarily English-speaking country, to have good English. Also, those from Hong Kong, with its British history and international status, or Taiwan. Mark Chao, Riley Wang, Aarif Rahman, William Chan.
They speak fluent English maybe they are half foeriegner or born and race in English country
Most of them aren't!
Eddie Peng is good in English too
Wang Yibo and Wang Zhuo Cheng are both scouted by YH Entertainment and both studied in Hanlin arts school in South Korea? I didn't know that.
Henry lau is canadian chinese so he is pretty fluent in english too. You forgot him.
Where is Jing Tian? I love her speaking English
why thy so handsome and cute
Mark Chao , from eternal love. Sorry for incorrect spelling of his name.
He's Canadian originally.
Arthur Chen is native speaker, he was born and raised, my guess in California? The rest are like a B2 proficient. Stephen from (Go Ahead) and the singer are a C1 good proninciation and intonation .
I think I'll be more impressive with some of these actors if they didn't grow up in Canada or the states...
Shawn Dou went to school in Canada. It is normal that he speaks english.
You miss William Chen
I'm surprised for shawn
Can you make a video that Chinese actors who wanna date black girl please
When is 'Immortality' gonna released???? 😭😭😭
My favourite is Arthur Chen. So classy and sexy
Girl you forget Zhu Zhu and Joan Chen.😭
this does not tell us that much, since Song reads off dialogue for ex (very efficiently, for sure, and honestly, compared to my Chinese…); abroad-living/raised people DO NOT COUNT, but hats off to everyone who learns a foreign language!
Wang Yibo 💚💚💚😘
Plz upload more vedios
English is internationally spoken with hundred's of accent. Arthur with his American accent. People from Hong Kong speak English with their British accent. NO BIG DEAL!!
Pfffttt Wang Yibo being on this list is too funny. Private shushan college mentioned!!! LOL (totally not me liking just because of the wyb appearance)
Arthur Chen!🧎🥵😍
Are they native born Chinese people? That's an accomplishment. I'm from Boston and must constantly work on my regional accent
Arthur chens é sim lindo ❤❤❤❤❤❤
What is there to be surprised that chinese stars speak English. Some of them were born in The States or European countries. Of course they can speak English.. hardly surprising then.There are lots of non actors and ordinary chinese nationals who also speaks fluent English and are multi linguist. I'm for one and I speak fluently 3 languages and can understand and speak minimal 4 other languages . 😮
Y didn't u add XiaoZhan?. He can speak English fluently.
Arthur Chen is on the top
Arthur Chen went to private school. A very expensive high school
He got rich parents.
Shawn Dou is Canadian
U forgot luhan ❤
Victor Ma!
How about Ma Boqian?
