Hello, everyone.
2
Welcome back to the Slow English Podcast.
3
I'm Tom, and today I want to share a very special story with you.
4
This is not just a story about music.
5
It is not just a story about fame.
6
It is a story about dreams, fear, courage, and growth.
7
Recently, the game-changing K-pop boy band BTS returned after a nearly four-year musical hiatus
8
and made their long-awaited comeback with their fifth studio album, Arirang.
9
Their comeback has once again reminded the world why they are one of the most influential music groups of our time.
10
Millions of fans around the world have been waiting,
11
listening, and celebrating their return.
12
But behind the bright lights,
13
the music, and the global success, there are individual stories.
14
Stories of hard work, sacrifice, and quiet determination.
15
And today, I want to tell you one of those stories.
16
Let me ask you a simple question.
17
Have you ever felt like your dream was too big?
18
Maybe you thought your dream belonged to someone else,
19
someone more talented, more confident,
20
or maybe just luckier than you.
21
If you have ever felt that way,
22
then this story is for you.
23
Today, we are going to talk about a boy who once felt small,
24
quiet, and unsure of himself.
25
A boy who did not believe he was special.
26
But step by step, he followed his dream,
27
and he changed his life.
28
That boy is Jan Jung-kuk,
29
the youngest member of BTS,
30
their main vocalist, a powerful performer,
31
and one of the most loved artists in the world today.
32
Let's go back to the beginning.
33
Jan Jung-kuk was born in Busan, South Korea in 1997.
34
As a child, he was quiet and thoughtful.
35
He was not the loudest student in class,
36
and he was not the most confident either.
37
In fact, he was very shy,
38
the kind of person who stayed in the background and observed more than he spoke.
39
At first, he did not even dream of becoming a singer.
40
Like many young boys, he wanted to be an athlete.
41
He enjoyed sports, especially badminton,
42
and that was the path he imagined for himself.
43
But then, one day, something changed.
44
He watched a performance by G-Dragon,
45
a famous artist from Big Bang.
46
The music was powerful.
47
The stage was full of energy.
48
And in that moment, something inside Jungkook woke up.
49
It was not loud, it was not clear at first,
50
but it was there.
51
It felt like a small light turning on inside him,
52
and that small light became a dream.
53
From that moment on, he wanted to become a singer.
54
Now dreaming is easy, but following a dream is not easy.
55
Jungkook did not just sit and imagine his future.
56
he started taking action.
57
He practiced singing.
58
He practiced dancing.
59
He recorded videos.
60
He trained himself again and again,
61
even when no one was watching.
62
And when he was only 13 years old,
63
he joined a big audition show called Superstar K.
64
He did not win the competition, but something important happened.
65
people noticed him.
66
Several entertainment companies became interested in him.
67
Some of them were big, famous, and powerful.
68
He had many choices, but Jungkook made a surprising decision.
69
He chose a smaller company called Big Hit Entertainment.
70
Why?
71
Because of one person, RM.
72
Jungkook saw something in him.
73
He believed in the team.
74
He believed in the vision.
75
He believed in a future that was not clear yet but felt right in his heart.
76
So he followed that feeling.
77
He did not choose what looked the best,
78
he chose what felt right.
79
And that choice changed his life forever.
80
At the age of 14,
81
Jungkook made a very difficult decision.
82
He left his hometown, he left his family,
83
He left his friends, and he moved to Seoul.
84
Can you imagine that?
85
At 14, most people are still thinking about school,
86
games, or spending time with friends.
87
But Jungkook was already chasing a dream in a big,
88
unfamiliar city, far away from everything he knew.
89
His new life was not easy.
90
He lived in a small dorm with other trainees.
91
Every day he followed a strict routine.
92
He woke up early, trained for hours,
93
and practiced singing, dancing, and performing again and again.
94
There were no cameras, no fans,
95
no applause, only hard work.
96
And in the quiet moments when the training was over,
97
reality felt even harder.
98
Sometimes he felt lonely.
99
Sometimes he missed his family deeply.
100
Sometimes he looked at others and wondered if he was good enough.
101
There were moments when he truly doubted himself.
102
Yes, the Jungkook we know today,
103
strong and confident, once felt weak, unsure, and afraid.
104
But here is the most important part of his story.
105
He did not give up.
106
He stayed.
107
He kept showing up.
108
He practiced.
109
He learned.
110
He improved.
111
Slowly.
112
Quietly.
113
Day by day.
114
And that is how real growth happens.
115
Now let me pause here and talk to you directly.
116
If you are learning English right now,
117
maybe you feel the same way.
118
Maybe you feel shy when you speak.
119
Maybe you feel like your English is not good enough.
120
Maybe you compare yourself to others and feel left behind.
121
But I want you to remember this.
122
Even global stars start small.
123
Even the best speakers once struggled to say simple sentences.
124
Even the most confident people were once afraid to speak.
125
Jungkook slowly began to grow.
126
He watched the other members in BTS.
127
He observed how they sang,
128
how they danced, how they expressed themselves on stage.
129
and little by little he learned from them.
130
His voice became stronger, his movements became more confident,
131
he built his confidence step by step,
132
and most importantly he worked even when no one was watching.
133
This is very important, because real growth happens in silence,
134
It happens in practice rooms.
135
It happens in early mornings and late nights.
136
It happens when there are no cameras,
137
no applause, and no one to praise you.
138
In 2013, Jungkook finally debuted with BTS.
139
He was the youngest member.
140
At first, he was still quiet.
141
He did not speak much,
142
and he did not always stand in the center.
143
Sometimes he stayed in the background, still learning, still observing.
144
But he never stopped working,
145
and slowly people began to notice him.
146
His voice became stronger and more stable.
147
His dancing became sharper and more controlled.
148
His presence on stage became powerful and confident.
149
But success did not come overnight.
150
BTS struggled in the beginning.
151
They were not famous immediately.
152
They performed on small stages.
153
They faced challenges.
154
They worked for years before the world truly saw them.
155
And during that time, Jung-gook kept growing,
156
year by year, step by step, moment by moment.
157
And there is a very important lesson here.
158
Success is not fast.
159
Success is built through consistency.
160
It is not about one big moment.
161
It is about showing up every day,
162
even when it is hard.
163
even when no one is watching.
164
Jungkook once shared something very simple but very powerful.
165
He said that he always wanted to improve.
166
Even after becoming famous, he did not stop learning.
167
He kept pushing himself to grow,
168
to become better, not just as an artist but as a person.
169
He learned new skills.
170
He practiced more.
171
He challenged himself in new ways.
172
And one of the things he decided to learn was English.
173
He started watching shows like Friends to improve his listening and speaking.
174
At first, it was not easy.
175
He did not understand everything.
176
Some words were too fast.
177
Some sentences were confusing.
178
But he did not stop.
179
He listened again.
180
He repeated what he heard.
181
He practiced, little by little, every day.
182
Just like you.
183
Take a moment and really think about that.
184
One of the most famous singers in the world is learning English in the same way you are.
185
Watching shows.
186
Listening carefully.
187
Repeating simple sentences.
188
There is no magic.
189
There are no shortcuts.
190
There is only practice.
191
And that should give you hope.
192
Because if he can do it this way,
193
you can do it too.
194
A simple moment, but a very meaningful one.
195
One day, Jungkook spoke in English during an international event.
196
His pronunciation was not perfect.
197
His grammar was not perfect.
198
But he smiled.
199
He tried.
200
He spoke.
201
And that is what courage looks like.
202
Not perfect words, but real effort.
203
Now let me ask you something.
204
Are you waiting until your English is perfect before you speak?
205
If your answer is yes,
206
then you may be waiting for a very long time.
207
Because perfection is not the goal.
208
Progress is the goal, and every time you speak,
209
even if it is not perfect, you are making progress.
210
Jungkook also showed something very special.
211
Even after becoming famous, he stayed humble.
212
He never said, I am the best.
213
Instead, he often said, I still have a lot to learn.
214
And that mindset is very powerful.
215
because when you believe you still have more to learn,
216
you continue to grow.
217
Over time, Jungkook performed on bigger and bigger stages.
218
He traveled around the world.
219
He stood in front of thousands,
220
sometimes even millions of people.
221
One of the most memorable moments was when he performed at the FIFA World Cup.
222
The stage was huge.
223
The audience was global.
224
Millions of people were watching him in that moment.
225
But after the performance, his words were simple.
226
Thank you.
227
I will continue to work hard.
228
No ego.
229
No showing off.
230
Just gratitude.
231
And that tells us something very important.
232
Success is not only about talent.
233
It is also about attitude.
234
Jungkook's story teaches us something simple but very meaningful.
235
You don't have to be loud to be strong.
236
You don't have to be perfect to begin.
237
You don't have to be confident to start.
238
You just have to start.
239
Maybe your dream is not to become a singer.
240
Maybe your dream is to speak English fluently.
241
Maybe you want to travel,
242
to study abroad, or to get a better job.
243
Whatever your dream is, the process is the same.
244
You start small, you practice every day,
245
and most importantly, you do not give up,
246
even when it feels slow,
247
even when it feels difficult.
248
Because real change does not happen in one day.
249
It happens little by little,
250
step by step, just like Jungkook's journey.
251
Let me give you a simple example.
252
If you practice English for just 20 minutes every day,
253
your progress may feel slow at the beginning.
254
You may not see big changes right away,
255
and sometimes you may even feel like nothing is improving.
256
But don't stop.
257
After one month, you will start to notice small differences.
258
You understand a little more.
259
You feel a little more comfortable.
260
After six months, something deeper changes.
261
You begin to feel more confident.
262
You are not as afraid to speak as before.
263
And after one year, you are no longer the same person.
264
Your thinking changes.
265
Your confidence grows.
266
Your world becomes bigger.
267
And that is how real progress works.
268
Jungkook did not become great overnight.
269
He became great because he showed up every single day.
270
Now close your eyes for a moment and imagine this.
271
You wake up in the morning.
272
The world is still quiet.
273
Instead of checking your phone,
274
you choose to listen to English.
275
You hear simple sentences.
276
You repeat them slowly.
277
You speak out loud, even if your voice is not perfect.
278
Then you take a few minutes to write a few lines in English.
279
Nothing big, just a few simple thoughts.
280
But you do this every day.
281
This is your training.
282
This is your journey.
283
And one day, without even realizing it,
284
you will look back and you will see something amazing.
285
You are no longer the person you were before.
286
You are stronger.
287
You are more confident.
288
You are better.
289
And most importantly, you did it yourself.
290
Before we finish, I want to ask you something.
291
Be honest with yourself.
292
Can you wake up early tomorrow and practice English?
293
Just 20 or 30 minutes.
294
No phone, no distractions, just you and your English.
295
Do you think you can do it?
296
Take a moment and really think about your answer.
297
Because change does not come from big actions.
298
It comes from small actions repeated every single day.
299
So here is my final message for you.
300
Your dream is not too big,
301
and you are not too small.
302
You are simply at the beginning.
303
Jungkook started as a quiet, shy boy in Busan.
304
Today, he is a global star.
305
But the most important part is not his fame, it is his journey.
306
And now, your journey is waiting for you.
307
So start today.
308
Start now.
309
Speak, even if your voice shakes.
310
Learn, even if it feels slow.
311
Try, even if you are afraid.
312
because one day all of these small steps will become something big and when that day comes,
313
you will look back and you will be proud of yourself,
314
proud that you did not give up.
315
Thank you so much for listening today.

Consigli per la pratica
Quando pratichi l'inglese con il video, considera di utilizzare la tecnica del shadow speak. Questa tecnica consiste nel ripetere immediatamente dopo l'oratore, cercando di imitare la sua pronuncia e il suo ritmo. Poiché il video presenta una narrazione che può variare in velocità, assicurati di ascoltare attentamente e di fermarti per ripetere brevi frasi alla volta. Questo ti aiuterà a migliorare il tuo shadow speech.
Ricorda che è importante non solo ascoltare, ma anche articolare ad alta voce. La ripetizione costante ti insegnerà non solo nuovi vocaboli, ma anche le sfumature emotive del linguaggio. Quando Jungkook parla delle sue difficoltà e conquiste, prova a trasmettere le stesse emozioni nel tuo shadowing in inglese. Usa l'energia che percepisci nel video per rendere la tua esperienza più coinvolgente e reale:
- Presentati come lui, enfatizzando le emozioni che esprime.
- Fai delle pause quando necessario per riflettere sulla pronuncia.
- Registra la tua voce e confrontala con il video per notare i miglioramenti.
Utilizzare risorse come imparare l'inglese con youtube è un modo efficace e divertente per migliorare. Con la pratica, diventerai sempre più sicuro nel tuo modo di parlare e comunicare in inglese. Buona fortuna e buon allenamento!
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
