Shadowing Practice: BLACKPINK - '24/365 with BLACKPINK' EP.6 - Learn English Speaking with Video

Creating lesson...
1
It's 'already' rather than 'finally'.
2
-You sure it's not our 4th week? -Week 4 LOL!
3
There's something we've prepared for our 4th anniversary content!
4
Yeah so we've been discussing about this.
5
And you know how we always film our dance practice video in a proper way?
6
We thought if we wear something cute and film it, our BLINKS would like it.
7
So that's why we decided...
8
to transform ourselves with a <FROZEN> theme and dance to <How You Like That>.
9
We'll randomly draw out a character...
10
I wish we can choose our characters. and dance to <How You Like That>.
11
Director JENNIE is back in da house!
12
I'm not going to open it just now.
13
I hope it's Elsa or Anna.
14
I'll leave it to faith.
15
Hello my destiny?
16
I have a bad feeling I'd be Kristoff.
17
Oh, I wanted to be Anna!
18
I'm more curious about this.
19
-I don't want to do this! -Me too!
20
Oh this one is mine.
21
How about we open ours together!
22
JENNIE do you want to be Olaf?
23
Yes. I really really want to LISA~!
24
What shall I do for you?
25
No, you said before you wanted to be Elsa.
26
Did someone call my name?
27
That is mine!!!
28
End of selecting characters!
29
Let's go get changed.
30
She's fallen for a guy...
31
How dare you kick me out of the palace!
32
I'm going to get married!
33
I'm melting down...
34
Olaf!!
35
Olaf is getting old too you know....
36
Stop saying Olaf is 24 years old!
37
My boyfriend got me this fur coat.
38
Keep that to yourself for a while.
39
Oppa! Oh I was oppa? I thought I was younger than you.
40
Let's do this!
41
Ok, let's start!
42
Hi, I'm Olaf.
43
Let's ride together for a long time!
44
Thank you BLINKS, I love you!
45
She said she wanted to do it, let's do it.
46
#Revenge_Success #Congrats_on_4years #We_Love_BLINKS Congrats on your 4 year anniversary!!
47
We've prepared something special for you guys.
48
There's a BLINK that came to see you guys.
49
-What? -Really?
50
You can meet that person at the restaurant.
51
Shall we get going?
52
-What if it's our mom? -Mom?
53
I wonder if it's LEO ?
54
Have we been fooled?
55
I wonder if a person might come out of here?
56
I wonder if this is like a tarot reading!
57
Maybe a magician?
58
No, the person will be coming out from the box.
59
Surprise!
60
You're known as a wizard!
61
He's not a magician, he's more like a wizard.
62
But JISOO, you've done magic before right?
63
Yes, I'm really good at it!
64
It was for the fan meeting.
65
But today, I've prepared everything for you guys so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy.
66
To start off today's magic show, I've brought my sketchbook I got from Las Vegas.
67
Now I'm going to predict everyone's future on this sketchbook.
68
What's prophecy ?
69
So it's like telling the future before hand.
70
To see ahead.
71
Like a fortune teller, I'm going to take a peek at your future.
72
And then let you know!
73
For instance, who will LISA get married to?
74
Think of a number from 1~999.
75
How can you guess out of that many numbers?
76
Done!
77
Ok, I'll read your minds now.
78
It's difficult to read JISOO's mind!
79
It's because I know magic.
80
Isn't he drawing like a rabbit?
81
For now, JENNIE you can keep this.
82
Now I'm asking this just in case...
83
Does anyone have their phones with them?
84
Ok, I won't do anything to your phone. So don't worry.
85
Can you put up the calculator app on your phone?
86
This isn't my phone, it's JISOO's. And I haven't done anything to her phone.
87
ROSÉ can you put in the number you thought of?
88
But then you get to see my number!
89
-It doesn't matter. -The number is already written here.
90
Now press multiplication.
91
Is it a two digit number?
92
Wow, how did he guess that?
93
I'll put in the number I thought.
94
I just pressed the equal sign.
95
So then we have the total number.
96
The total turned out to be 712,178.
97
This can't be real...honestly.
98
That can't be written here. Honestly.
99
JENNIE you have the sketchbook right?
100
Honestly, this can't be real.
101
But there's one more thing that's important.
102
This number is for you guys.
103
Why? Who did you guys spend your 4 years with?
104
BLINK! Congratulations!
105
I honesty got goose bumps!
106
This is a card.
107
There's also a pen there.
108
Oh is this her character?
109
I have an eyesight of 2.0 and 2.0.
110
It's ok, it's ok.
111
So I have my cards here.
112
There's a total of 52 cards.
113
You can see how there's different numbers and shapes here.
114
There must be a string in between!
115
No, I don't have a string in between...
116
I only did this in front of old guys on TV shows and it feels good to get this much reaction.
117
Anyway, I just showed you guys how they're all different in shapes and numbers.
118
So now I'll show you tricks with these.
119
But there's something very important.
120
So JENNIE, you tell me when to stop.
121
You hold on to the card you said stop to and sign it so that I can't swap it with anything.
122
We're done!
123
Put the card here.
124
From now, I'll mix the cards like this.
125
It's done randomly.
126
But there's something very important.
127
I'm going to look for JENNIE's card at the very last to celebrate your 4th anniversary.
128
I'm thinking of portraying BLACKPINK's story with these cards.
129
The story of BLACKPINK.
130
I feel like he's reading my mind...
131
Ok, let's start the story of BLACKPINK. How about we begin with JISOO.
132
JISOO you were born on the year 95, right?
133
This can't be real!
134
And JENNIE you're next up.
135
You were born in the year of 96.
136
The two of you are same age with LISA being born the latest.
137
Both born in the year of 97.
138
But there's something important.
139
The four of you...
140
are taking over the music scene like a JOKER.
141
Calm down.
142
I'll mix the cards once more.
143
Now I don't know if you remember but in 2016...
144
you remember that year right?
145
On the 29th of June 2016 you guys were revealed to the public.
146
There should be some clapping at this point.
147
This is so cool we can't even clap.
148
And after a couple of months...
149
On the 8th of August 2016...
150
This is honestly impossible...
151
But within 13 days since their debut...
152
Congratulations, you guys had your first win.
153
So for the past 4 years, you guys live the life as queens of K-POP.
154
This is so cool.
155
You guys remember which song you had your first win with?
156
WHISTLE! How are you doing this?
157
What about this then?
158
Next song is? PLAYING WITH FIRE!
159
Our love is like playing with fire.
160
The pen..the pen!
161
Like a diamond!
162
All the boys get nosebleeds!
163
Guys congratulations!
164
The 8th of August will be your 4th anniversary.
165
I hope your lives are filled with luck.
166
and I want to say you're a 10 out of 10!
167
This is a gift for you guys, so keep it well.
168
Oh and there's something important!
169
We are... With an encore, I'll show you one more.
170
Encore! No!!
171
For the last trick, I'll be using my phone.
172
The last trick is a selfie LOL.
173
So with this trick, I'll be using my phone.
174
I've listed around 100 films I like in my notes.
175
You guys will be choosing out of the 100 films.
176
LISA, tell me a number from 1~100.
177
Oh!! You guys can see the 100 films here right?
178
Let's check out what's on number 33.
179
Oh what? Aladdin?
180
What kind of trick may this be?
181
Out of the 100 films, LISA chose Aladdin.
182
Just for you guys, let's bring out Genie.
183
Thank you!

How to practise with this video

  1. Listen to the whole video once without speaking and note the words you do not know.
  2. Shadow it sentence by sentence at normal speed, repeating each one until your rhythm matches the speaker.
  3. Record yourself and compare with the original, paying attention to words like sketchbook, encore, oppa.

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
