this called me out because ive been very worried about my future. i didnt think i can go anywhere withh my average grades. ive never talked about this to my friends. maybe if i could think positive, i could be successful. one time i was talking to my friends about which classmates will become successful. she said i could be one of them, and it motivated me a lot.
Very true 100% agree, but 1 out of 200 people are gonna be like Jackson. It was a big risk but he made it cuz he never gave up. Stay in school kids don’t just drop out of school to become a kpop star🙃
But the teacher said he is doing well, though;) I mean Stanford University offered him scholarship, of course through fencing, but they have standards in academic, too. Glad to hear principal Mike said, "Fortunately, he didn't listen to me (because Jackson chose the right decision)." That's our Jackson, so determined!!
I guess that's why Jackson likes his teachers, and sees the school as his family. They are honest, delightful, supportive, loving you for who you are unconditionally.
His parents did a great thing sending him to this school. Look at him now, he could speak so well ! & because of that, we international fans could understand U perfectly !!!! Love U jackson !!!!
I forgot to mention that it's befitting that Jackson won the American Teen Choice Award for the Next Big Thing on Aug.12, 2018, before going back to visit AIS on Aug.18. He is the only ethnic Chinese who has ever won that award. So it is no small accomplishment at all. I am so proud of him.
He is one of those rare celebrities who can look back on his life after turning 70 and can actually say "I made it". Like, he worked so hard. There have been(and will be) times where didn't get to rest because he had so much going on his schedules. He didn't become famous in one night luckily, he carefully climbed up the ladder with his hardwork. He is that one idol that gives me the positivity, the inspiration to work hard. His story isn't magical. His story is so normal that it makes you want to chase your dream so you can have it as him. He is actually an IDOL to me.❤
Jackson grown up from a loving environment, school and family, that's why he has this beautiful personality. And to see how the teachers are proud of him for his strong determination to achieve his goal. Thank you Rachel for uploading this video.
This just makes it more real for me. I never completely understood the full impact of what all Jackson had to leave behind, to go into another country all alone & work in such a competitive environment. A huge Risk. He was so brave. He is so brave. I, personally, always take the safe route but he's taught me time and again to go after my passion & dreams. Thank God(more like his parents for raising & supporting him), for Jackson. For making me positive. He has encouraged me and many others. The least I can do is support him always.
Thats why he is my "bias" but more like a role model, all the languages he knows, all the programs he does for China and Korea, he is doing alot just for his Dream
I just wanted to point this out. He was given an opportunity, and he took it. To me that isn’t really a HUGE risk but it definitely is a risk. Theres a difference between being given an opportunity vs just leaving everything behind WITHOUT an OPPORTUNITY given and the latter is what a true HUGE risk is. Its because your chances are unknown as opposed to being given an opportunity aka(being scouted, getting flown out to Korea, etc) the company already has an eye on you. Not trying to discredit him but i’m just trying to point out the diff between people who are given the chance/opportunity and just people try things from scratch with no opportunities handed, no offers, no connections, no help, and no nothing. Jackson or anyone wouldn’t leave everything behind if there was no opportunity given, thats just dumb. Basically everything was aligned for him. He had the talent, and was given a chance. Lots of people has talent but wasn’t given a chance or opportunity which is sad. And there are people who are meh/okay/has potential but was given an opportunity and was scouted and def has potential and got in. For Jackson like I said everything went well and the stars aligned. He has Major talent PLUS he was given the OPPORTUNITY. So i’m not trying to take away anything from him and discredit him. Its just he was blessed with the opportunity vs people who try and try and has mad talent but no scouts get to see them which is sad. But yeah, this dudes solid all around the board.
Calum Yea that is true but also keep in mind some trainees never get to debut. Some companies train them but never actually put them into a group and they just end up wasting time.
rachel s rachel s Totally true. Thats why I said everything went right for him. Cause he was given the opportunity and he showed his major talent and succeeded.
I really admire Jackson's ambition and hard-working personality. Sure, all kpop idols worked hard for what they wanted, but I really think Jackson's determination is the kind you only see in great business leaders, he has that side of his that knows he can't do everything alone so he makes sure he gets to know people and maintain meanigful connections. Beyond the fact that he's a handsome idol, Jackson is really a role model, I mean, with all and all, people do have concrete evidence of the great qualities he has, sports take a huge amount of discipline and passion and he worked hard enough to get to qualify for the Olympics, but then he also had this big dream of making it into music so he risked it all and made it work. Now that tells me a lot of him as a person, I'm deeply saddened by the fact that many people, especially in Korea, overlook this so easily, that was perhaps also the reason why he decided to go solo only in China and not Korea too. Jackson Wang deserves more recognition and I hope he continues improving his music so that he gets the success and recognition he deserves.
coffeebean1704 Omg you speak from my heart. People easily forget how hard he works and what he sacrificed to get where he is now, perhaps because he is always so happy and seemingly effortless. But we fans all know the efforts he made is inestimable! I’m so proud of him.
I admire his decision of not leaving his group got7 despite the fact that he's already succesfull as a solo artist. it's a very sensible decision even if it's affecting his health because of multiple sched.. got7 will no longer be got7 w/o him.igot/ahgases will be sad w/o him.. i love him equally as got7 and as a solo artist. 😍😍😍
@@MiguelJuliann23 i bet that when people even suggest or alude to his chance of dropping out of got7 he would be offended, though I wouldn't cross it out completely, the time comes for idol groups where the group is not as important/prioritary in their lives, but that would come in many yrs and only when the group as a whole determine their time as business partners will end, but their friendship is an entirely different thing and I'm sure they all want the best for each other so time will only say
These 26 minutes reinforced my views on Jackson. 4 years ago when I fell in love with him (and GOT7), as usual he was making people roll with laughter in some variety show, even then I could tell that behind those crazy antics, was a determined and an extremely hardworking person. Time went by and I learnt what he had to give up in order to be where he is today, but after this documentary I believe that instead of giving up something, he gave the sport his very best and decided to challenge himself with something that he always had an embedded passion for. I have no doubt that had he chose to be a fencer, he would still be making headlines! Jackson was born to be in the limelight either way! But I for one, I'm glad that he chose the stage over the podium because it gave me the opportunity to get to know such an amazing man!
Dear Rachel, Thank you for this beautiful documentary about our precious Jackson Wang. Big thanks to the teachers and friends who always support and taking care of Jackson. And yes... I love him even more. 😍💚💚
Jackson made me realize that you don't need to be perfect. My whole life I would always regret every small mistake I made or regret opportunities that I could've taken. But Jackson showed us that u need to stop living in the past and have fun. Stop having regrets and be positive. Thank u for this beautiful video. This video truly showed how great Jackson is as a human being
His one positive example of "go after you want". He's humble, smart, loving, caring, talented and fun, but over all he's a strong person who don't make excuses or allow the fear stop him. His one of the k-pop artist that I think have much to give, not only artistcly speaking if not with his view of his path. . .I woulk like to see a documentary where he can speak freely about his strougle in Korea and K-Pop industry because his persona it's always something that clash with asian tipical personality. Thanks for show us more about you Jackson ♥
So, since he was just a teenager boy until now he always works so hard to get himself a chance for what he passionates at from fencing to music. King, can’t express how much we’re proud of you.
How hard for his parents to let go of their son but thank you for supporting his dreams. Have always admire his determination, and Jackson, YOU MADE IT!
Life Sucks we think the same👌😊 but i like his voice from 2015..... maybe his english become better and he doesnt have that accent...... but his voice is really rough 👌
I never commented on a UA-cam video ever but I just had to for this documentary; it is nicely filmed, informative, and felt personal, giving me that impact to work hard and make my dreams come true. I think a majority of GOT7 and Jackson fans know he has worked hard into becoming a fencer and an all-round entertainer, but to actually hear accounts of that labor being put into his future is astounding and makes me proud of him. He could have gone to Stanford and compete at the 2012 Olympics but as he said himself and has stated multiple times, follow your dreams, do what you really want to do, and that is exactly what he did. More importantly, you can tell from variety shows and accounts that he is charismatic, jocular, and overall a kind person. He always pays homages to his hometown at concerts and such, and from these interviews and interactions with his teachers, it pretty much established that all of the things we hear about and see from Jackson is true. Honestly, I’m not really a fan of his solo work but I am definitely inspired by the hard work he puts into it (and just working hard in general). Great job on this documentary, I absolutely enjoyed it. Just as Jackson made his dreams come true as an entertainer and artist, I hope the same for you as well becoming a filmmaker! I am looking forward to your future works. :-)
Now that the full series is uploaded, I will no longer be posting Jackson related videos on this channel ): However, I will be uploading my own short films and documentaries in the future. If you guys are interested feel free to subscribe and follow along (:
If anyone has 2 minutes to spare, please check out my new video ua-cam.com/video/eHskNZX9elo/v-deo.html I'm playing around with a new editing style and would appreciate any feedback (:
The teacher said Jackson is not the strong one, but he is doing well in academic:) I mean Stanford University offered him scholarship, of course through fencing, but they have standards in academic, too. Glad that principal Mike said, "Fortunately, he didn't listen to me (because Jackson chose the right decision)." That's our Jackson, so determined!!
I am so thankful that Jackson took the risk. He left behind so much. Like he already had a pretty good future in front of him. He could be an Olympian and get the respect from his countrymen but he chose another path. No one knew if he would get the job. I'm glad that he was determined. I just hope he doesn't regret it. There's so much negativity in kpop industry so i hope you all will always shower him with lots of love.
Jackson is an inspiration to me. He worked hard, had a dream and a desire to do something so he did it and took the chance when he got the opportunity and didn't let anyone make his decision for him or try to stop him. Keep working hard Jackson!!
hongkong 2021 ,i'm very proud of him,he can do anything he want it cz he wanna make own history,love you Jackson,stay humble and healthy,God blessing you and your familly
He has such an amazing personality. He worked hard and succeeded, a great example that everyone should follow. Never forgot where you're from and who you were with, take every chance and never regret and be humble. He said it all, Jackson Wang said it all. Keep being who you are!
I don't know why I cry while watching this, literally crying with tears falling down and I am moved, totally moved by Jackson. Thanks Rachel in making this video. Jackson definitely deserves the love from all of us. ❤️
The courage he took in letting an opportunity go for another one is undoubtedly inspiring and downright beautiful. I love everything about this amazing man. You'll make it big one day, Jackson. And I'll be there supporting you come hell or high water!
This vid makes me emotional in so many ways. I could give a crap about my teachers but these teacheres here , you could really tell how much they cared about his future and about him as a person
Aww I'm so proud of him, just like his teachers, family and friends. He has achieved so much and brought happiness to this world just like he said when he was small.
This is forever going to be my motivational video for everything I want to do in life. Thank you so much Jackson Wang for taking a huge risk leaving everything behind and going after your dream, it's going to help many others do the same and become successful.
This was so refreshing to watch. It's so nice to see his personality that has helped him become so popular has been with him ever since he was young. Also the same passion. He truly is the same Jackson, just stronger and more passionate. You could see the amount of pride his teachers had for him. Although he couldn't graduate due to moving to Korea, it is nice to see you are still so proud of him. He definitely is an asset to the school and represents this well. You truly have helped to shape him into becoming the gentlemen he is today, alongside his parents. Thanks to his school, Jackson was discovered as an artist. It must have been difficult for him to decide between his passion for his sport or his passion for music, especially when both parents are Olympians. He could have easily carried on with his fencing, taking part in the 2012 olympics, graduating high school, studying at Stanford University. But he didn't, he decided what he was more passionate about and went for it without caring for any risks. Fencing was the safe route, K-pop wasn't. But he made it nonetheless and he is an inspiration for so many. If for some reason, he didn't make it, all his fans know that he would find another way to achieve his dreams. He has shown that sometimes we should take risks to follow our dreams. He still is the fencing king, he still is an amazing pro athlete, that won't change, but he also created for himself an identity in an unknown place. His efforts, mindset and passion will definitely help him reach more places and become even more successful.
out of all things, i believe it's jackson's social skills that helps him largely to be where he is rn. Not saying he's not talented or hard worker, he's one of the hardest working people in the industry, but like one of his teachers mentioned he's always been really social he knows how to treat people well, he doesn't discriminate, people feel comfortable around him. If there's a trait i'd want from jackson it is his social and PR skill. Jackson has one of the most likable personalities i've come across, he's loved everywhere he goes and that speaks volumes about someone!
I really love everytime, how some of these people keep on doubting him and his dreams at first. I really understand because it's too risky indeed like changing path so quick, yet Jackson made it, and thanks to that determination I met him through Got7. I can't any be more happy🤧 . Thank you Jackson for letting us Jackys and Ahgase get on this journey of yours!💚😍 *PROUD IS UNDERSTATEMENT*
First of all, I like to thank Rachel for making this excellent documentary and uploading it. This helps to inspire more people to pursue their dreams. I am so impressed with the spirit of AIS, providing a "warm and supportive environment to nurture" the students as spoken by Mr. Wing, the principal. Jackson said the school was like a big family to grow up in and he could have fun. How lucky for Jackson and other students attending AIS! Jackson not forgetting his roots is so heart-warming, even he is an international celebrity now. I think Jackson was so lucky to have Mr. Gartz as his former counselor, who cared about his education and then encouraged him to pursue his dreams. I am sure that meant a lot to Jackson. Jackson deserves all the success he has because he works incredibly hard as described by Mr. Hardisty, the former Dean of the school. I am not associated with AIS in any way, but I am glad to know that there is such a school in Hong Kong providing such wonderful education for students to be what they want. Please tell Jackson to take of his health also.👏🇭🇰👍😁❤️
Thank you so much, Rachel and team💓And thank you to HK AIS teachers, principal, dean, the committee, and Henry! Jackson Wang is a blessing for young people, especially, to this world. I am a teacher my self, and I know what it feels when your student MADE IT, achieved their goals, living their life happily with what they're doing, and still grounded and stay true to their self.. I can't describe it with words..just PROUD, so proud.. Love Jackson Wang so much, can't stop crying happily while watching this short movie about him..again, thank you💓
I feel like words could never describe how amazing Jackson is, but whenever I think of him and what he’s achieved the one thing that always comes to mind is superhero. Jackson is what I would call a modern day hero for our generation and it doesn’t have to be just for this generation but every generation. The determination, drive and passion that he has to get what he wants shows that no matter what you want in life if you want it bad enough you can always get it and even if you don’t get it this time you can get it next time you just need to have that passion and that want to want it. I feel so honored to have found him and to be a part of his journey to fulfill his dreams. What Jackson is to me is he’s a hero, a role model, a mentor and a really unique/special person that I look up to. Wherever life takes you Jackson Ill always be by your side to cheer you on no matter what 💜💜💜💜💜 continue fulfilling your dreams but just please remember to get more sleep besides on the plane because sleep is very important too In fulfilling your dreams. Love you 💗
Such an amazing documentary. More than Jackson being an idol and artist he is showing us that everything is possible if you want to accomplish your dreams. He is a inspiration to me ♡ El es increible ♡. Thank you for this film *claps*
All this did was make me love him even more. He has worked so hard all these years. He took such a huge risk. But clearly, that risk paid off. He has taught me so much in just these 2 years I've been supporting him. He makes me want to work hard on my own dreams and take small risks myself since I always play it safe. He has helped so many of us across the world. I will always support him.
We are proud of you,Jackson!Keep going!But don't forget to rest.I think that Jackson is a diamond 💎 Jacky love you.❤Thanks your teacher for taking care you.AIS👍👏💪
Wow I didn't think that I could love him more, but this proved me wrong. He's such a sweet man. I wish him all the success and happiness in the world. ❤️
So proud of him!! Proud to be his fan and proud of everything he has achieved so far!! I know that the future has big things reserved to him and I'm sure I'll always be by his side!!! Let's grow bigger together!! ❤❤❤
Hard worker and so appreciative of everything he's earned and I'm genuinely so happy for someone with that drive and obvious joy that he has had with it. I love his laugh
Rachel, words are not enough to express how much I love this guy and how much he means to me. Thank you so much for doing this! Literally something as simple as seeing his bright smile makes my day 100x better. Jackson has accomplished so much throughout his life and he still stays humble. He has really made a huge impact on my life. This awkward 5ft tall girl will always support him. One of my dreams is thank Jackson in person someday (with my hair and makeup looking decent)!! Forever Team Wang!!! oxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxo
His English improved so much that if i didn't know about him I would've thought he was a native English speaker, I'm so proud of my precious cinnamonroll! Is it just me or does he sound different?
Savage Roaster hahaha he might sound a bit different from when he’s speaking korean. People tend to sound different when they r speaking different languages (:
I'm so happy for him and he was so lucky to have teachers and a school like that... I wish I had a school like that too.. litteraly my high school ruined all my dreams and chances to have a bright future, I'm literally stuck at the rock bottom now... I regret everything about my high school years, I had one friend (and even that wasn't from my school) Teachers make the difference between students, I had literally 3 teachers who belived in me and pushed me from behind (my geography, enghish and desing teacher) In the 10th grade my depression was geting really bad and I was doing self harm, let me tell you that NO ONE CARED other kids bullyed me for that and teachers practically ignored that , in the last year my math teacher failed me and other 14 classmates just because he didn't want us to get in the final exam. But let me tell you that..ok I was bad in math but I was having pretty good grades in other subjects, I even got in a national design competion in third place, but they telled me that I will be nothing in my future and my dreams will not com true if I don't learn maths, I WASN'T EVEN A MATH RELATED SCHOOL . Now I really don't know what to do with my life, I really want to give up but I can't I'm just 20 I have my parents, my puppy and kpop who keeps me alive. I regret every decision I made in my life until now... For those who are in high school/middle school DON'T LET PEOPLE ACTIONS AND WORDS TO AFFECT YOU, DO WHAT YOU WANT AND WHAT IS POSSIBE TO FULFILL YOUR DREAMS, DON'T BE LIKE ME. I'm sorry for this but I needed to say it.
I love hearing success stories and it truly inspires and motivates me, and there are advices I like hearing to challenge myself. I just found this really cool and didn't realize some ppl cried, but knowing that ppl actually cried, while watching this documentary, was what moved me the most. I can tell Jackson is a loving person. It is good to see a famous individual having inspiring impacts on others especially the younger ppl. 🙂
*Jackson Wang* 🌟 💚 a handsome man 💛 a great artist 💜 he never forget his roots 💙 he´s always kind, friendly, nice, not arrogant, self-loyal despite many difficulties ❤️️ Wang means King (왕) in Korean language. And he´s truly a king > my king! Stay strong and you´re absolutely perfect the way you are! 💖 A lot of love and succuess for you from Germany!
This was very well put together! I liked that even though it's about Jackson, it stay entirely on him. We got to learn about him through his teachers and their relationship with him. Thanks for making this. 😊 It has given me a different perspective on how I view him.
This is getting more interesting...I love how he able to share his memories in AIS and also give advice for young generation...The teachers are very supportive and I really like this video. Jackson Fighting!!
Dear Rachel, Thank younfor this. It has answerey a lot of questions in our head about Jackson! Kinda lucky because I first saw him in 2010 in a fencing match. So that means he was still in AIS that time! You’re alao a product of AIS, right? You, Henry, Jackson and all of the students are lucky to have educators/teachers/mentors like the ones in this video. I wish for them to multiply! Look how good an influence they are in your lives! Btw, your documentary is awesome and we’ve been waiting for it to come out! God bless!
I stumbled upon this video by chance tonight, thank you sooo much for sharing this and making it possible for so many of us to watch this! I've been a fan of Jackson, his personality and his work eithic -- he's such a passionate stand up person, if I can cultivate even half of his determination, strength, kindness and persistance, I'm grateful!
Thank you Rachael. I do not know what re-upload means but I only do commentary. This is a great documentary. I saw it on the Team Wang site. I love following the exploits of Jackson and Jiro Wang. He is so extraordinary. So are my guys from Got7. They are so unique.
I thought they were British.....hmn...but I know what you mean😂😂 when I heard him say, " I love Bollywood!" I was like, " Looks like that's the closest I get to you, Jackson."😂😂
This is a really good school with great teachers. Encouraging and caring about Jackson's/their students' future. Like I can't even go up to my teacher and ask to go to the restroom without them telling me no because I went already 2 times this week. I loved this documentary! I'm glad I got to learn more about Jackson and how much his teachers love him and also show how much his school life was an important part of his life. 😊
To be successful, choosing a good school is important, now in the days, some students are playing every day and don’t know what they are doing, and some are always nervous and busy to death... I mean... don’t be too harsh on yourself, just be great on what you are great on
Thank you for this lovely video about oppa Jackson Wang and I'm happy that all the teachers support him and oppa Family too. Thank you for being by oppa side for all this many years. I'm happy that oppa Jackson made it to the top and I really support you oppa and your boys band too (Got7) ❤😘💘🤩😍😊🔥👏👏👏👏💋😘❤💘💘😍👏😊👏👏👏😊🤩😍❤💘😘💋 I'm so proud that oppa didn't give up for his dreams and future too❤💘🤩😍😘❤💘🤩🤩😍😊👏👏👏💋😘❤💘💘🤩😍😊😊👏👏👍😘❤❤💘🤩🤩😍😊👏👏😊😊😊🤩🤩😍❤❤💘💘🤩🤩🤩😍😍❤💘💘🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍🤩💘💘💘💘💘💘💘🤩🤩😍😍
This is an inspirational video. I've seen a few interviews of Jackson where he mentioned how fortunate he is for waking up each day doing the things he is passionate about. Pursuing a dream is a big risk but it's worth the try. Life is too short to be skeptical about the things that you want. Thank you for sharing this documentary.
If anyone has a few mins to spare go ahead and check out my new video (: ua-cam.com/video/Nu2ALFu5XQ8/v-deo.html
Moral of the story: stay hungry, remember your roots, academics aren't everything, and love Jackson
Love that
Of course "and love Jackson" 😅
Love jackson is the most important hahaha
this called me out because ive been very worried about my future. i didnt think i can go anywhere withh my average grades. ive never talked about this to my friends. maybe if i could think positive, i could be successful. one time i was talking to my friends about which classmates will become successful. she said i could be one of them, and it motivated me a lot.
Very true 100% agree, but 1 out of 200 people are gonna be like Jackson. It was a big risk but he made it cuz he never gave up. Stay in school kids don’t just drop out of school to become a kpop star🙃
Lol his teacher put him on BLAST... "Was not strong academically"
ikr haha
But the teacher said he is doing well, though;) I mean Stanford University offered him scholarship, of course through fencing, but they have standards in academic, too. Glad to hear principal Mike said, "Fortunately, he didn't listen to me (because Jackson chose the right decision)." That's our Jackson, so determined!!
The teacher said, "Not the strongest academically". Kindly modify your comment. 😊
Lol
I guess that's why Jackson likes his teachers, and sees the school as his family. They are honest, delightful, supportive, loving you for who you are unconditionally.
His parents did a great thing sending him to this school. Look at him now, he could speak so well ! & because of that, we international fans could understand U perfectly !!!! Love U jackson !!!!
I forgot to mention that it's befitting that Jackson won the American Teen Choice Award for the Next Big Thing on Aug.12, 2018, before going back to visit AIS on Aug.18. He is the only ethnic Chinese who has ever won that award. So it is no small accomplishment at all. I am so proud of him.
👏👏👏
K
😍
😢😢😢😢
He is one of those rare celebrities who can look back on his life after turning 70 and can actually say "I made it". Like, he worked so hard. There have been(and will be) times where didn't get to rest because he had so much going on his schedules. He didn't become famous in one night luckily, he carefully climbed up the ladder with his hardwork. He is that one idol that gives me the positivity, the inspiration to work hard. His story isn't magical. His story is so normal that it makes you want to chase your dream so you can have it as him.
He is actually an IDOL to me.❤
You are the only person till now who can express perfectly how I feel about Jackson
fr bruhh!!! i love jackson💜💜💜💜✨✨✨
Reminds me of Iggy Azalea
Jackson grown up from a loving environment, school and family, that's why he has this beautiful personality. And to see how the teachers are proud of him for his strong determination to achieve his goal. Thank you Rachel for uploading this video.
Anna Lea welcome ^~^ hope u enjoyed the video
Your profile pic, muuuuuaahhhhh~😘
It an input natural personality e got
This just makes it more real for me. I never completely understood the full impact of what all Jackson had to leave behind, to go into another country all alone & work in such a competitive environment. A huge Risk. He was so brave. He is so brave. I, personally, always take the safe route but he's taught me time and again to go after my passion & dreams. Thank God(more like his parents for raising & supporting him), for Jackson. For making me positive. He has encouraged me and many others. The least I can do is support him always.
NITIKA RAJ he’s a huge inspiration to all of us ^~^
Thats why he is my "bias" but more like a role model, all the languages he knows, all the programs he does for China and Korea, he is doing alot just for his Dream
I just wanted to point this out. He was given an opportunity, and he took it. To me that isn’t really a HUGE risk but it definitely is a risk. Theres a difference between being given an opportunity vs just leaving everything behind WITHOUT an OPPORTUNITY given and the latter is what a true HUGE risk is. Its because your chances are unknown as opposed to being given an opportunity aka(being scouted, getting flown out to Korea, etc) the company already has an eye on you. Not trying to discredit him but i’m just trying to point out the diff between people who are given the chance/opportunity and just people try things from scratch with no opportunities handed, no offers, no connections, no help, and no nothing. Jackson or anyone wouldn’t leave everything behind if there was no opportunity given, thats just dumb. Basically everything was aligned for him. He had the talent, and was given a chance. Lots of people has talent but wasn’t given a chance or opportunity which is sad. And there are people who are meh/okay/has potential but was given an opportunity and was scouted and def has potential and got in. For Jackson like I said everything went well and the stars aligned. He has Major talent PLUS he was given the OPPORTUNITY. So i’m not trying to take away anything from him and discredit him. Its just he was blessed with the opportunity vs people who try and try and has mad talent but no scouts get to see them which is sad. But yeah, this dudes solid all around the board.
Calum Yea that is true but also keep in mind some trainees never get to debut. Some companies train them but never actually put them into a group and they just end up wasting time.
rachel s rachel s Totally true. Thats why I said everything went right for him. Cause he was given the opportunity and he showed his major talent and succeeded.
He says sorry about copy homework 😂😂😂so funny
And all teachers say forgive him 😂😂😂
hahahaha....
I really admire Jackson's ambition and hard-working personality. Sure, all kpop idols worked hard for what they wanted, but I really think Jackson's determination is the kind you only see in great business leaders, he has that side of his that knows he can't do everything alone so he makes sure he gets to know people and maintain meanigful connections. Beyond the fact that he's a handsome idol, Jackson is really a role model, I mean, with all and all, people do have concrete evidence of the great qualities he has, sports take a huge amount of discipline and passion and he worked hard enough to get to qualify for the Olympics, but then he also had this big dream of making it into music so he risked it all and made it work. Now that tells me a lot of him as a person, I'm deeply saddened by the fact that many people, especially in Korea, overlook this so easily, that was perhaps also the reason why he decided to go solo only in China and not Korea too. Jackson Wang deserves more recognition and I hope he continues improving his music so that he gets the success and recognition he deserves.
coffeebean1704 Omg you speak from my heart. People easily forget how hard he works and what he sacrificed to get where he is now, perhaps because he is always so happy and seemingly effortless. But we fans all know the efforts he made is inestimable! I’m so proud of him.
I admire his decision of not leaving his group got7 despite the fact that he's already succesfull as a solo artist. it's a very sensible decision even if it's affecting his health because of multiple sched.. got7 will no longer be got7 w/o him.igot/ahgases will be sad w/o him.. i love him equally as got7 and as a solo artist. 😍😍😍
@@MiguelJuliann23 i bet that when people even suggest or alude to his chance of dropping out of got7 he would be offended, though I wouldn't cross it out completely, the time comes for idol groups where the group is not as important/prioritary in their lives, but that would come in many yrs and only when the group as a whole determine their time as business partners will end, but their friendship is an entirely different thing and I'm sure they all want the best for each other so time will only say
Ikr, jackson is rlly an amazing person. He really deserved a WHOLE world.💚
He deserves the world, such a great talent !!!
What I learned from this :
Stan jackson
These 26 minutes reinforced my views on Jackson. 4 years ago when I fell in love with him (and GOT7), as usual he was making people roll with laughter in some variety show, even then I could tell that behind those crazy antics, was a determined and an extremely hardworking person. Time went by and I learnt what he had to give up in order to be where he is today, but after this documentary I believe that instead of giving up something, he gave the sport his very best and decided to challenge himself with something that he always had an embedded passion for. I have no doubt that had he chose to be a fencer, he would still be making headlines! Jackson was born to be in the limelight either way! But I for one, I'm glad that he chose the stage over the podium because it gave me the opportunity to get to know such an amazing man!
you took the words right out of my mouth!!
Dear Rachel,
Thank you for this beautiful documentary about our precious Jackson Wang. Big thanks to the teachers and friends who always support and taking care of Jackson.
And yes... I love him even more. 😍💚💚
Vanilla Sky awww thank you so much ❤️❤️ I’m so glad you enjoyed this documentary ^~^
If there’s one thing all the teachers say it’s that he was very socially interactive
Jackson made me realize that you don't need to be perfect. My whole life I would always regret every small mistake I made or regret opportunities that I could've taken. But Jackson showed us that u need to stop living in the past and have fun. Stop having regrets and be positive. Thank u for this beautiful video. This video truly showed how great Jackson is as a human being
@Maryam A That's exactly how my life has been for myself! Now I'm having more fun as also to explore more of life. To this very day, I'm Blessed 🙏🙏
His one positive example of "go after you want". He's humble, smart, loving, caring, talented and fun, but over all he's a strong person who don't make excuses or allow the fear stop him. His one of the k-pop artist that I think have much to give, not only artistcly speaking if not with his view of his path. . .I woulk like to see a documentary where he can speak freely about his strougle in Korea and K-Pop industry because his persona it's always something that clash with asian tipical personality.
Thanks for show us more about you Jackson ♥
This is why I love Jackson, he has that positive vibes for everyone😍😍😍
So, since he was just a teenager boy until now he always works so hard to get himself a chance for what he passionates at from fencing to music. King, can’t express how much we’re proud of you.
How hard for his parents to let go of their son but thank you for supporting his dreams. Have always admire his determination, and Jackson, YOU MADE IT!
His voice is so difrent in 2018 than 2015..... omg.... his voice changed a lot.
Mary Kim I was just about to comment that.
Life Sucks we think the same👌😊 but i like his voice from 2015..... maybe his english become better and he doesnt have that accent...... but his voice is really rough 👌
He is a MAN now
Marie Antoinette but still a little baby for us💜💜💜
@@mariamaeva4159 true. He is a sweetheart and the sweetest guy in kpop
Thank you Jackson for becoming a singer and known by millions people. I'm not crying now😭 thank you my LOVE Wang.
I never commented on a UA-cam video ever but I just had to for this documentary; it is nicely filmed, informative, and felt personal, giving me that impact to work hard and make my dreams come true.
I think a majority of GOT7 and Jackson fans know he has worked hard into becoming a fencer and an all-round entertainer, but to actually hear accounts of that labor being put into his future is astounding and makes me proud of him. He could have gone to Stanford and compete at the 2012 Olympics but as he said himself and has stated multiple times, follow your dreams, do what you really want to do, and that is exactly what he did. More importantly, you can tell from variety shows and accounts that he is charismatic, jocular, and overall a kind person. He always pays homages to his hometown at concerts and such, and from these interviews and interactions with his teachers, it pretty much established that all of the things we hear about and see from Jackson is true.
Honestly, I’m not really a fan of his solo work but I am definitely inspired by the hard work he puts into it (and just working hard in general). Great job on this documentary, I absolutely enjoyed it. Just as Jackson made his dreams come true as an entertainer and artist, I hope the same for you as well becoming a filmmaker! I am looking forward to your future works. :-)
Gerald Vistro Thank you so much for spending that much time typing out a comment ❤️ I hope one day you get to achieve ur dreams as well (:
I got goosebumps. Jackson Wang is one of my favorite person in this world. He inspired me even more to keep working hard to achieve my goals.
Now that the full series is uploaded, I will no longer be posting Jackson related videos on this channel ): However, I will be uploading my own short films and documentaries in the future. If you guys are interested feel free to subscribe and follow along (:
If anyone has 2 minutes to spare, please check out my new video ua-cam.com/video/eHskNZX9elo/v-deo.html I'm playing around with a new editing style and would appreciate any feedback (:
The teacher said Jackson is not the strong one, but he is doing well in academic:) I mean Stanford University offered him scholarship, of course through fencing, but they have standards in academic, too. Glad that principal Mike said, "Fortunately, he didn't listen to me (because Jackson chose the right decision)." That's our Jackson, so determined!!
時隔多年我還是很喜歡你
I am so thankful that Jackson took the risk. He left behind so much. Like he already had a pretty good future in front of him. He could be an Olympian and get the respect from his countrymen but he chose another path. No one knew if he would get the job. I'm glad that he was determined. I just hope he doesn't regret it. There's so much negativity in kpop industry so i hope you all will always shower him with lots of love.
Jackson's life is really inspiring, i'm glad he remains humble above all, such a great person.
Jackson is an inspiration to me.
He worked hard, had a dream and a desire to do something so he did it and took the chance when he got the opportunity and didn't let anyone make his decision for him or try to stop him. Keep working hard Jackson!!
every teachers in the vid talk about jackson's sense of humor, his smile, and can communicate well with everyone😍😍
hongkong 2021 ,i'm very proud of him,he can do anything he want it cz he wanna make own history,love you Jackson,stay humble and healthy,God blessing you and your familly
Just discovered this video. Wow, very impressive.
He has such an amazing personality. He worked hard and succeeded, a great example that everyone should follow. Never forgot where you're from and who you were with, take every chance and never regret and be humble. He said it all, Jackson Wang said it all. Keep being who you are!
What Jackson did just to pack up and move to Korea and not knowing anyone and making new friends take guts! I applaud you Jackson! 👏👏👏
I don't know why I cry while watching this, literally crying with tears falling down and I am moved, totally moved by Jackson. Thanks Rachel in making this video. Jackson definitely deserves the love from all of us. ❤️
He's a social butterfly💖 I love his personality so much👑
Every aspect of Jackson is fascinating👍❤️❤️❤️
The courage he took in letting an opportunity go for another one is undoubtedly inspiring and downright beautiful. I love everything about this amazing man. You'll make it big one day, Jackson. And I'll be there supporting you come hell or high water!
This vid makes me emotional in so many ways. I could give a crap about my teachers but these teacheres here , you could really tell how much they cared about his future and about him as a person
Aww I'm so proud of him, just like his teachers, family and friends. He has achieved so much and brought happiness to this world just like he said when he was small.
Everyone calls Jackson friendly, caring, and charismatic. I like that 💕
This is forever going to be my motivational video for everything I want to do in life.
Thank you so much Jackson Wang for taking a huge risk leaving everything behind and going after your dream, it's going to help many others do the same and become successful.
Doudou
Thankyou AIS creating today's Jackson.
This was so refreshing to watch. It's so nice to see his personality that has helped him become so popular has been with him ever since he was young. Also the same passion. He truly is the same Jackson, just stronger and more passionate. You could see the amount of pride his teachers had for him. Although he couldn't graduate due to moving to Korea, it is nice to see you are still so proud of him. He definitely is an asset to the school and represents this well. You truly have helped to shape him into becoming the gentlemen he is today, alongside his parents. Thanks to his school, Jackson was discovered as an artist. It must have been difficult for him to decide between his passion for his sport or his passion for music, especially when both parents are Olympians. He could have easily carried on with his fencing, taking part in the 2012 olympics, graduating high school, studying at Stanford University. But he didn't, he decided what he was more passionate about and went for it without caring for any risks. Fencing was the safe route, K-pop wasn't. But he made it nonetheless and he is an inspiration for so many. If for some reason, he didn't make it, all his fans know that he would find another way to achieve his dreams. He has shown that sometimes we should take risks to follow our dreams. He still is the fencing king, he still is an amazing pro athlete, that won't change, but he also created for himself an identity in an unknown place. His efforts, mindset and passion will definitely help him reach more places and become even more successful.
THIS DOCUMENTARY PROVES THAT JACKSON IS THE FRIENDLIEST PERSON EVERRRR!!❤️❤️ OUR ENERGY IS BECOMING FAMOUS AND FAMOUS
out of all things, i believe it's jackson's social skills that helps him largely to be where he is rn. Not saying he's not talented or hard worker, he's one of the hardest working people in the industry, but like one of his teachers mentioned he's always been really social he knows how to treat people well, he doesn't discriminate, people feel comfortable around him. If there's a trait i'd want from jackson it is his social and PR skill. Jackson has one of the most likable personalities i've come across, he's loved everywhere he goes and that speaks volumes about someone!
So proud to see Jackson so positive and achieved his dream god bless you always ...we love you
I really love everytime, how some of these people keep on doubting him and his dreams at first. I really understand because it's too risky indeed like changing path so quick, yet Jackson made it, and thanks to that determination I met him through Got7. I can't any be more happy🤧 . Thank you Jackson for letting us Jackys and Ahgase get on this journey of yours!💚😍 *PROUD IS UNDERSTATEMENT*
First of all, I like to thank Rachel for making this excellent documentary and uploading it. This helps to inspire more people to pursue their dreams.
I am so impressed with the spirit of AIS, providing a "warm and supportive environment to nurture" the students as spoken by Mr. Wing, the principal. Jackson said the school was like a big family to grow up in and he could have fun. How lucky for Jackson and other students attending AIS! Jackson not forgetting his roots is so heart-warming, even he is an international celebrity now. I think Jackson was so lucky to have Mr. Gartz as his former counselor, who cared about his education and then encouraged him to pursue his dreams. I am sure that meant a lot to Jackson. Jackson deserves all the success he has because he works incredibly hard as described by Mr. Hardisty, the former Dean of the school. I am not associated with AIS in any way, but I am glad to know that there is such a school in Hong Kong providing such wonderful education for students to be what they want. Please tell Jackson to take of his health also.👏🇭🇰👍😁❤️
he is literally an inspiration to me i love him so much he’s so brave😭
Thank you so much, Rachel and team💓And thank you to HK AIS teachers, principal, dean, the committee, and Henry! Jackson Wang is a blessing for young people, especially, to this world. I am a teacher my self, and I know what it feels when your student MADE IT, achieved their goals, living their life happily with what they're doing, and still grounded and stay true to their self.. I can't describe it with words..just PROUD, so proud.. Love Jackson Wang so much, can't stop crying happily while watching this short movie about him..again, thank you💓
I mean documentary
I feel like words could never describe how amazing Jackson is, but whenever I think of him and what he’s achieved the one thing that always comes to mind is superhero.
Jackson is what I would call a modern day hero for our generation and it doesn’t have to be just for this generation but every generation. The determination, drive and passion that he has to get what he wants shows that no matter what you want in life if you want it bad enough you can always get it and even if you don’t get it this time you can get it next time you just need to have that passion and that want to want it. I feel so honored to have found him and to be a part of his journey to fulfill his dreams. What Jackson is to me is he’s a hero, a role model, a mentor and a really unique/special person that I look up to. Wherever life takes you Jackson Ill always be by your side to cheer you on no matter what 💜💜💜💜💜 continue fulfilling your dreams but just please remember to get more sleep besides on the plane because sleep is very important too In fulfilling your dreams. Love you 💗
Such an amazing documentary. More than Jackson being an idol and artist he is showing us that everything is possible if you want to accomplish your dreams. He is a inspiration to me ♡ El es increible ♡. Thank you for this film *claps*
All this did was make me love him even more. He has worked so hard all these years. He took such a huge risk. But clearly, that risk paid off. He has taught me so much in just these 2 years I've been supporting him. He makes me want to work hard on my own dreams and take small risks myself since I always play it safe. He has helped so many of us across the world. I will always support him.
He is such an inspiration i totally love him
He's driven & passionate from the start ! Inspiring !!!
We are proud of you,Jackson!Keep going!But don't forget to rest.I think that Jackson is a diamond 💎 Jacky love you.❤Thanks your teacher for taking care you.AIS👍👏💪
Jackson has a great story. I love how relatable he is and always is grateful to those who help him.
It's really nice to see how loved he is in is hometown, so proud of Jackson! Thanks for making and sharing this documentary
He looks so happy🤧❤️I love him sm and I'm so proud of where he is
Wow I didn't think that I could love him more, but this proved me wrong. He's such a sweet man. I wish him all the success and happiness in the world. ❤️
It's so beautiful that he had such good hearted teachers. ❤
Jackson is always determine and ready to do his very best,he is so positive and amazing human.
Jackson was really set to be a role model 💖
love the video. Jackson has got the look, the brain, the good heart. how fortunate can a person be?
Love this documentary, want to know more about him, he's so awesome & talented !
So proud of him!! Proud to be his fan and proud of everything he has achieved so far!! I know that the future has big things reserved to him and I'm sure I'll always be by his side!!! Let's grow bigger together!! ❤❤❤
His efforts were eventually paid off
Hello Miss Rachel, thanks for uploading this documentary about Jackson. So good to see how AIS family are so proud of him ^^
이수진 thanks for watching ^~^ hope you enjoyed the video ^~^
Very impressive and encouraging 👍👍. Have same experience that we won’t forget a place where helped us to grow up to be a better person.
Hard worker and so appreciative of everything he's earned and I'm genuinely so happy for someone with that drive and obvious joy that he has had with it. I love his laugh
Rachel, words are not enough to express how much I love this guy and how much he means to me. Thank you so much for doing this! Literally something as simple as seeing his bright smile makes my day 100x better. Jackson has accomplished so much throughout his life and he still stays humble. He has really made a huge impact on my life. This awkward 5ft tall girl will always support him. One of my dreams is thank Jackson in person someday (with my hair and makeup looking decent)!! Forever Team Wang!!! oxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxo
Jackson sure did work extremely hard to get where he is now. Continue your journey with greater success !
jackson is so beautiful inside out...😍😘❤️ aghases are so proud of you dearest gaga..💚💚💚
*this is why I love him*
His English improved so much that if i didn't know about him I would've thought he was a native English speaker, I'm so proud of my precious cinnamonroll! Is it just me or does he sound different?
Savage Roaster hahaha he might sound a bit different from when he’s speaking korean. People tend to sound different when they r speaking different languages (:
He is amazing
I'm so happy for him and he was so lucky to have teachers and a school like that... I wish I had a school like that too.. litteraly my high school ruined all my dreams and chances to have a bright future, I'm literally stuck at the rock bottom now... I regret everything about my high school years, I had one friend (and even that wasn't from my school)
Teachers make the difference between students, I had literally 3 teachers who belived in me and pushed me from behind (my geography, enghish and desing teacher) In the 10th grade my depression was geting really bad and I was doing self harm, let me tell you that NO ONE CARED other kids bullyed me for that and teachers practically ignored that , in the last year my math teacher failed me and other 14 classmates just because he didn't want us to get in the final exam. But let me tell you that..ok I was bad in math but I was having pretty good grades in other subjects, I even got in a national design competion in third place, but they telled me that I will be nothing in my future and my dreams will not com true if I don't learn maths, I WASN'T EVEN A MATH RELATED SCHOOL . Now I really don't know what to do with my life, I really want to give up but I can't I'm just 20 I have my parents, my puppy and kpop who keeps me alive. I regret every decision I made in my life until now...
For those who are in high school/middle school DON'T LET PEOPLE ACTIONS AND WORDS TO AFFECT YOU, DO WHAT YOU WANT AND WHAT IS POSSIBE TO FULFILL YOUR DREAMS, DON'T BE LIKE ME.
I'm sorry for this but I needed to say it.
he is so cool(sexy) when he speaks English omg
I love hearing success stories and it truly inspires and motivates me, and there are advices I like hearing to challenge myself. I just found this really cool and didn't realize some ppl cried, but knowing that ppl actually cried, while watching this documentary, was what moved me the most. I can tell Jackson is a loving person. It is good to see a famous individual having inspiring impacts on others especially the younger ppl. 🙂
That's why I admire Jackson he is so so talented and charming and special and perfect👏♥️😍👑.
I'm so Proud🙏 he's the best👑♥️
That's the reason why Jackson is so brave.Thank you Jackson:)
Great Boy for Your Family n your Teachers. Many Many hard work for your talent music but success don’t easy.
加油👏2019😍🌹
*Jackson Wang* 🌟
💚 a handsome man
💛 a great artist
💜 he never forget his roots
💙 he´s always kind, friendly, nice, not arrogant, self-loyal despite many difficulties
❤️️ Wang means King (왕) in Korean language. And he´s truly a king > my king! Stay strong and you´re absolutely perfect the way you are!
💖 A lot of love and succuess for you from Germany!
"Wang" means "King" in Chinese. The initial "W" looks just like a crown. How interesting!
This was very well put together! I liked that even though it's about Jackson, it stay entirely on him. We got to learn about him through his teachers and their relationship with him. Thanks for making this. 😊 It has given me a different perspective on how I view him.
Jacqueline Sadberry I’m glad you enjoyed it ^~^
This is getting more interesting...I love how he able to share his memories in AIS and also give advice for young generation...The teachers are very supportive and I really like this video. Jackson Fighting!!
he is the best artist I ever see he pay 100% attention on his music and work thats why I respect
Dear Rachel,
Thank younfor this. It has answerey a lot of questions in our head about Jackson! Kinda lucky because I first saw him in 2010 in a fencing match. So that means he was still in AIS that time! You’re alao a product of AIS, right? You, Henry, Jackson and all of the students are lucky to have educators/teachers/mentors like the ones in this video. I wish for them to multiply! Look how good an influence they are in your lives!
Btw, your documentary is awesome and we’ve been waiting for it to come out!
God bless!
852 Wang sorry for the wait but I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
謝謝拍攝了這部影片。
認真。外向。知道自己每分每秒是為了什麼而努力。
Thank you very much for sharing this. We love Jackson so much!
I stumbled upon this video by chance tonight, thank you sooo much for sharing this and making it possible for so many of us to watch this! I've been a fan of Jackson, his personality and his work eithic -- he's such a passionate stand up person, if I can cultivate even half of his determination, strength, kindness and persistance, I'm grateful!
Thank you Rachael. I do not know what re-upload means but I only do commentary. This is a great documentary. I saw it on the Team Wang site. I love following the exploits of Jackson and Jiro Wang. He is so extraordinary. So are my guys from Got7. They are so unique.
Many thanks you so much for this Jackson's Documentary. It's made me more love with him. #Jackson Wang #Got7
Some of his teachers were Australian and thats the closest thing I am to him
idonotmakevidsyet i'm not trying to be mean but they are British, not Australian. Sorry if that sounded rude, I wasn't trying to be! 😅
idonotmakevidsyet I’m in that school lol
I thought they were British.....hmn...but
I know what you mean😂😂 when I heard him say, " I love Bollywood!" I was like, " Looks like that's the closest I get to you, Jackson."😂😂
Pretty sure some of them were British
British
I am speechless, just so so so so so proud of him!♥️
This is a really good school with great teachers. Encouraging and caring about Jackson's/their students' future. Like I can't even go up to my teacher and ask to go to the restroom without them telling me no because I went already 2 times this week.
I loved this documentary! I'm glad I got to learn more about Jackson and how much his teachers love him and also show how much his school life was an important part of his life. 😊
To be successful, choosing a good school is important, now in the days, some students are playing every day and don’t know what they are doing, and some are always nervous and busy to death... I mean... don’t be too harsh on yourself, just be great on what you are great on
I’m so proud of all his achievements! Thank you for this documentary!❤️
dear teacher you raise are good n humble student....he his are very sweet person...tq for that..n we all love him very much💚💚💚💚💚💚👑👑👑👑
I have said it before. Jackson Wang has one of the coolest speaking voices I have ever heard.
Thank you for this lovely video about oppa Jackson Wang and I'm happy that all the teachers support him and oppa Family too. Thank you for being by oppa side for all this many years. I'm happy that oppa Jackson made it to the top and I really support you oppa and your boys band too (Got7) ❤😘💘🤩😍😊🔥👏👏👏👏💋😘❤💘💘😍👏😊👏👏👏😊🤩😍❤💘😘💋
I'm so proud that oppa didn't give up for his dreams and future too❤💘🤩😍😘❤💘🤩🤩😍😊👏👏👏💋😘❤💘💘🤩😍😊😊👏👏👍😘❤❤💘🤩🤩😍😊👏👏😊😊😊🤩🤩😍❤❤💘💘🤩🤩🤩😍😍❤💘💘🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍🤩💘💘💘💘💘💘💘🤩🤩😍😍
This is an inspirational video. I've seen a few interviews of Jackson where he mentioned how fortunate he is for waking up each day doing the things he is passionate about. Pursuing a dream is a big risk but it's worth the try. Life is too short to be skeptical about the things that you want.
Thank you for sharing this documentary.
good conclutions gurl
