Bilingual Idol

if we talk about kpop, it's always all about singing and dancing. but i found something that interesting, it's about language, because there's a lot of korean idol who doesn't live in korea before debut, so basically they can speak another language. what i mean 'bilingual idol' here are idol who can speak more than 3 language, and here it is :


U-Kiss - Alexander

if we talked about language, than there must be alexander from u-kiss, he's the oldest member of u-kiss, he also the rapper. his father is half chinese and half portuguese, and his mother is korean. he born in hongkong and raised in macau, he also attended High School in the United States. because of his nomaden life, now he can speak totally 7 languages! there was spanish, portuguese, mandarin, cantonese, korean, english, and japanese. that was amazing right?











2PM - Nichkhun

like we already know, he isn't korean. his father is thai, and his mother is chinese. he born and raised in USA. so because of that much mixed blood he can speak english, korean, chinese, and thai fluently. not only handsome but also can speak lot of language, how can we're not fall for him?












2PM - Taecyeon

who knows behind his dorky personality the rapper from 2pm can speak 4 languages fluently. he is pure korean, but moves to boston, so he can speak korean, english, japanese, and spanish fluently. and he also can speak chinese basically.














2NE1 - CL

The leader of 2NE1 is pure korean, but she's following her father who is teacher, and moving frequently to another country, so she can speak fluently in korean, japanese, english, and french. she was born in 1991, so can speak 4 languages fluently in this young age, how great!











2NE1 - Sandara Park

Sandara is korean, but she raised in philipines so she can speak korean, english, tagalok, and chinese fluently. not only beauty, cute, and dorky, but also can speak 4 languages, you made us love you more dara.















MBLAQ - Thunder

if we already talk about sandara park, then we can't forget about her little brother, mblaq's thunder. just like his sister, he can speak fluently in 4 language, korean, chinese, tagalok and english. handsome, can dance well, dorky, and he can speak 4 languages fluently, that was really + score for you thunder.













SNSD - Tiffany


this beauty, is pure korean, but raised in USA. so she can speak english, korean, chinese, japanese, and spanish (basic). beauty, good voice, and can speak 4 languages, is there any reason for not fall for her?














SHINee - Key

almighty key was his nickname, cause he can sing, dance, and rap well. but there's something left, he can speak 4 languages fluently. he is pure korean, but when still on elementary school, he did exchange students to L.A, so he can speak korean, english, japanese, and chinese fluently. according to that exchange student things, we can tell that he lives in korean, but he can fluently speak english on his elementary school days, how amazing you almighty key!

Amber knows Korean, Chinese and English! Hyoyeon studied Chinese with Siwon before so she's good in Chinese, Korean and Japanese too! You're missing people. :D Anyhoo, thanks for the info.

  4. Yeah! Philippine language is not tagalok... its TAGALOG or you can also use FILIPINO.... Since any of the two are acceptable.

    :-) But please don't misunderstand. I Just want to clarify what you have written in one of the language that Sandara Park could speak.. thank you
