More And More Asian Stars Rising Like A Starin Western Countries
Perhaps you are a fan of
any popular Asian star
, who may be a movie star likes
Jacky Chan from Hong Kong, or singers like
Girl Generation from Korea
, Yui from Japan
...... Actually, it is acknowledged that Asian stars are no longer appealing only to Asian audiences, but to many people in the whole world, especially those in
the Western countries.
(其實"Asian audiences" 同 "those in Western countries" 吾系已經包曬全世界啦咩?What is the point of using the word "especially"?)
In the past, Western stars were the mainstream of the entertainment industry. The Hollywood and Oscar Award can show the superior position of Western movies
, Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber are examples of popular Western singers.
On contrary, not too many Asian stars were famous in the West. The situation changed in a few years ago
, more and more Asian stars are gaining fame in
the Western countries
, so what are the reasons
of this phenomenon?
One of the
factors must be globalization, as it provides an opportunity for stars to gain popularity
in the global. The limits of time and regions are broken under globalizatio
n, people can easilyget in touch with other countries and learn about different cultures, including their movies and music
, hence more Asian stars become well-known
oversea. Also, Asian stars can have more chances to participate in global activities so as to
raise their popularity all over the world. Being famous in the Western countries, G.E.M. Tang, a Chinese-born Hong Kong singer, held lots of worldwide concerts and
got the name "China's Taylor Swift" from Western media in recent years. Donnie Yen, a Hong Kong popular kung-fu actor, is active in Hollywood movies. These exemplify that globalization puts entertainment personalities under the attention of the global audiences, and makes them become renowned in Western countries.
Besides globalization,
Internet contributed a lots to the great popularity of Asian stars. Originally, stars
need adequate resources to hold
propaganda in order to gain popularity
, Westernstars comparatively
have an advantage as their
country is better developed in economy and
entertaining industry. However, Internet is
more prevailing now
, the promotion fee is much lower on the Internet while the efficiency
is remain high. Social media such as Facebook, YouTube and Twitter
provided a platform for stars to communicate with their fans, and to
keep being exposed to the public. Moreover, movies and songs from other countries can be purchased and watched or
listened online. Thus, we can see that
Internet play a very important role
on the rising popularity of Asian stars.
Last but not least, the
capabilities of acting or singing of Asian stars bring them to the world. Since the entertainment industry is in keen competition, personal abilities become the crux of whether a star can succeed
or not.
Let's have a look
on Korea
, every singer
needed to experience years of training before they
debut. In Hong Kong, TVB holds actor training
course each year. These are the telling examples that Asian entertainment companies are setting great store by the abilities of stars,
and providing comprehensive training program. Hence, more and more Asian stars are well-trained and really good at acting
or singing. When they do amazing performances on the stage, it is normal that they can attract audiences from
any country. Needless to doubt,the excellent abilities of Asian stars help them be appealing to the Western audiences.
As the Asians, it is our pleasure and honour to hear that Asian stars are gaining popularity in Western countries, or even in the whole world. The situation implies that Asian entertainment industry is now in a bright boom. It is hoped that our stars can have a broader future and reach a larger audiences in the world, I believe that many Asians will stand here and support them.
