There are a few people that have had their impact on me but if I have to talk about a specific one then I would like to talk about an artist named John Jungkook. He is from a global phenomenon boy band group named BTS. All of the same members of that group is very hardworking and admirable but Jungkook stands out to me most because of his dedication and his sincerity. And in my perspective, Jungkook is a very devoted person because he puts his 100% effort in everything he does, whether if it is in his solo works or his group works. And he has truly earned the reputation and fame that he always deserved because he has given up his hometown and his childhood dream to pursue his dream of being a singer. And he has just millions of hearts with his singing. And moreover, Jungkook is also a very sincere person as an artist, which is very rare to see nowadays in celebrities, I guess. And I think that is because he actually takes accountability if he does something wrong. Like I remember one incident when he had won a political head out of ignorance or unintentionally and within an hour he actually apologised because of the criticism that he has gotten Because you know that haters are always above the fans, so there are no chance that they will ignore Jungkook’s unintentional mistake. And I’m really glad that he really apologised for that and he learned from his mistake and never had done it again. And that’s why whenever I feel a bit literally demotivated, I always look up to Jungkook and see and remind myself how he has handled those criticism and became an honest, honest, person and I also want to do that for myself.
