Awww, I used to do that too. I'm waiting for her to come back after covid19 ends so I can watch soaps with her lol, I just like watching it with her xd
But they could’ve watched it at different times. Like how my mom just now watched Boys over flowers meanwhile someone else her age could’ve watched it when it came out
Renjun is just as cultured as the other Korean members tbh. In some cases he's more cultured than others to the point where people always think he's Korean 😂
@@_de_reve i don't think it's confirmed about his ethnicity, since he only went to school that teaches korean language and cultures. It's possible due to Jilin being the border of china-korea so the culture and language is mixed. He too never addressed this issue so we shouldn't assume, what is clear is that he's chinese by citizenship. If we're talking about ethnicity well both Korean and Chinese literally came from the same ancestry, or what is known as east asian.
iirc his grandma really enjoy korean show and music so he often watches shows with his grandma when he's at her place (which was pretty often?) that's why most things he knows are old lol. it's also where his love for space and stars begin because he used to walk around her neighborhood at night and the sky night were very clear there
@@Stan_Raikantopini411 "broke vs. woke" meme is just to compare a bad (broke) opinion to a good (woke) opinion. i'm basically saying that renjun looks like a young chinese man but he's actually an old korean woman because of his personality lol
I love the duality. He knows most of the things that even the Korean members don't and then at times he will be like "I don't know Korean well. I'm a foreigner." I love him so much.
I read that he's from jilin and the descendants of jilin have korean blood but the people there are considered chinese. I dont know the history behind it. Also, they said renjun attended international school where people with korean descent go. The predebut clip of him acting in korean is the school they were talking about. Idk if it's true tho.
Well, c-fans indeed assume that Renjun is chaoxianzu (korean ethnicity people in china) because while there's many korean descendant in jilin (his hometown), the percentage of korean people there aren't that high compared to han people (wikipedia said it's 4% vs 91%), so renjun attended korean ethnicity school was some sort of telling his actual ethnicity because why non-korean descendant attend korean ethnicity school? It's still just assumption because Renjun himself never confirmed it but if c-fans who knows their country's situation the best assuming renjun is chaoxianzu, then it's most likely right 😅
@@MsHaruharuka "So renjun attended korean ethnicity school was some sort of telling his actual ethnicity bcause why non-korean descendant attend korean ethnicity school?" Lol it's not that common for non-chaoxianzu to attend Korean ethnicity schools, but there are exceptions. Back when I was in 1st grade there was 1 non-chaoxianzu student in my class iirc(I'm Chinese Korean and I've lived in China for 6-7 years so I went to a Korean ethnicity school for 1st grade). Some parents realize that if they enroll their kid into a Korean ethnicity school then they'll learn both Korean and Chinese, making them bilingual. Plus learning Korean and Chinese simultaneously, you also start learning English in 5-6th grade, which means you're basically learning 3 languages in school.
I feel like Renjun presents himself really well when he’s talking so him know korean well early on really pays off. And because for example Jisung/Jaemin grew up speaking it they probably talk more slang than proper lol
What makes it more funnier is that he keeps saying his korean is so GOOD but at the same time uses his his foreign identity to be safe from punishments 😂
6:07 this man summed it up perfectly “i thought you were a korean who knew chinese” 🤣🤣🤣 all those mornings watching kdramas with his grandma 👵🏻 Renjun is good at Korean
Woow, im even more impressed how YOU found all the references and meanings Cos google prolly don’t have all these answers (so easily) I have to say This great result can only be explained by hard meticulous work AND being an intellectual as much as Renjun
i love this!!! Renjun really takes being bilingual to the next level. I'm ethnically Chinese and English is my first language and I can barely speak Mandarin. Mandarin is hard y'all.
Laura aa well, finally someone will call him hyung now. Though, I am not yet ready 😅 But as I watched their NCT LIfe in Wonderland wherein he jokingly asked Chenle to call him hyung because he wanted someone to call him like that too 🥺🥺
lol yep cfans pretty much confirmed that he's chaoxianzu, ethnically korean living in China (jilin). although sm has never confirmed it (nor do I think they ever will, nor do I think they have too) its very likely
Considering the fact that he has spent part of his childhood and his teenage years in a country were he had to fit in, makes sense. He’s a hardworking guy! 🖤✨
the more i see renjun compilation of speaking well in korean, singing lot of old korean song, knowing something that korean members also actually doesn't know about it, the more i keep thinking he's actually korean. dude, honestly i want renjun to open up this topic on his live-
Ethnically, he IS korean lol. To put it simply, Renjun is like Johnny and Mark, a korean descendant that lives overseas. But unlike Johnny and Mark, Renjun (and seems like his entire family) did more contact with their korean ancestry (he went to korean ethnic school in china back then) so he's more familiar about korean language and culture then resulted him appears more korean than Johnny and Mark.
@@MsHaruharuka yes, i realized it when he mentioned his grandma also watching korean drama when he was younger. btw, thanks for your explanation !! i used to be confused but your explanation combined everything i want to read ^^
renjun, chenle: chinese jisung, jeno, jaemin, haechan and mark: korean (mark is korean-canadian) renjun: *UNO REVERSE CARD* (this is based on 2 Chinese guys correcting 5 Korean guys)
I still remember on weekly idol when chenle was still so nervous and he was still working on his korean and now here we are 😂 it’s so funny in videos you can see him and Renjun both get more and more comfortable because their sass comes out lmao
He's chaoxianzu, that's why he's Korean good 😆 he's been bilingual since he was little, our renjun 💚 if I'm not wrong in Korean they say it "joseonjog (조선족)"
Plot twist: Renjun is a Korean time traveler but is trying to fool everyone into thinking he's Chinese and that's the reason why he knows all those Korean songs and words
it’s SUPER impressive to me that renjun knows words like 구라 and 콩깍지 bc they’re not words that’ll turn up commonly for you to just know which means he’s gone deep into korean media
I need an update from this video 😭😭 really enjoyed watching it so much like it's one of my fav video about renjun and keep rewatching it. Whenever i see this i hope one day renjun will guesting on korean tv show that will let him show his inner korean. My current big wish it amazing saturday, imagine renjun nailed in snack games whatever the type of game like the kpop song or ost or karaoke even the drama doppelganger quiz i believe he will nailed it, while still being cute by making mistakes on spelling the dictation answer or getting a bit frustrated bcs late at answering
If they ever go on a variety show and the hosts don’t know them, nationality wise, they can play “Guess The Foreigners”. I bet they wouldn’t guess Renjun is a foreign member.
I came across renjun's predebut video singing in korean and i just know that he has korean ethnicity, this explains a lot that he is really good speaking in korean..
That's probably he spoke Korean with his grandma while living in china he knows lots of old Korean drama Korean must been spoken in the area he was born
I once read that renjun was schooled in somewhere near korea or his school teaches korean language that's why he's really good in korea it's like his first language along with mandarin
Having Korean people so shocked and questioning your nationality when you speak Korean is better than getting the C2 certificate. That's my goal now lol
It's so funny because I knew Renjun was introduced as Chinese when NCT Dream debuted but as time passed by, and I watched their Vlives and other shows, I'd randomly go, "Oh, he's not Korean?" 😅
