Well, to be perfectly honest, I would say that a lot of videos are popular in my country. But specifically, the most popular videos in my country are DIY tutorials. These videos have a lot of views because many people, especially teenagers, love to decorate and be creative. They want to make special gifts for others, so they watch a lot of DIY videos to get ideas and learn how to make things themselves. I always enjoy watching these types of videos, and I try to make things for decorating my home. Additionally, a memory comes to mind. A couple of years ago, I made a special gift for my cousin by watching DIY videos. When I sent this gift, she was over the moon because she loves these types of things. Also, when she watches these types of videos, she shares them with me because I always prefer these types of videos.
