See, this English talent competition is just like America's Got Talent.

Dumb it down a few notches, and it's to showcase the talent of speaking English.

There were a few hundred contestants.

Preliminary quarterfinals were held in classrooms and movie theaters.

And we had to jump through hoops like reading Shakespeare, reading poetry, group debates, sketch comedy.

I was lucky.

I got through the first few rounds, and there were 12 of us in the final.

And the final took place at the TV station in the studio.

There were room full of audience, and the competition will be broadcasted to the network, meaning whoever is watching this channel at home, they're going to see me on their TV.

I was doing fine in the final, middle of the pack, closer to the bottom.

But the final program, the last section of the final, it was on improvised speech.

Improvised speech, random topics on raffle tickets.

I saw the other contestant got things like narrating a basketball game, or giving a welcome remark to Australian ambassador.

And then it was my turn, and my topic was to pick a random audience member and make a marriage proposal.

I was 21 years old.

My real majors are romance and boys.

I learned English by binge-watching Friends.

making a marriage proposal, that's the only thing I can do.

So I picked a cute boy from the audience.

I went down one knee and words started to come out of my mouth and they sounded good.
