At a recent interview, Black Pink's Lisa talked about being a foreign member.

The rookie idol is originally from Thailand, and also the only foreign member from YG Entertainment. When asked about her struggles in a foreign country, Lisa said, "It's been 6 years since I came to Korea. At first, I couldn't speak Korean at all. It was frustrating how I couldn't communicate. So I received Korean lessons every day and my members also helped me a lot on my Korean."

Lisa also talked about her homeland, and said, "People in Thailand love K-pop. There are many who also desire to become a K-pop singer." To the next question asking how she stands out among the many foreign idols in K-pop, Lisa answered, "I'm usually timid but I try hard to be charismatic on stage. I think this is the unique color I have."

Reading wikipedia I think, Thailand look softer compared to other Asian country because they are mixed blood of britain.

Wow I didn't know this

Yeah, I noticed that Thailand look something different compared to other Asian specially the girls, they are really pretty softer looks a bit chubby face but its not that skinny. A bit biger eyes, but it suits them. Koreans are round faces specially the girls, not all, small eyes (the girl who didnt get surgery), I noticed this if you look at the viewers of Korean shows in youtube specially the students they all look a like, but Thailand is really different, of course I dont know the looks of other Asian country, only Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Malaysian and Indonesian are just look alike of Filipino (Philippines), Philippines is a mixed blood of Spanish, Chinese, Japanese (few) American (few) and now Korean, because Koreans are now loving Philippines the only Asian country that can speak English (correct me if I am wrong, I hope Im correct). But Thailand are really different Maybe Britain looks really good compared to Americans, not sure with this, maybe softer looks.

I see! Thank you for this information! As for if Filipino's speak English, I believe that it's one of the main languages. When I watch Filipino dramas they tend to incorporate a lot of English in their dialogue.

What is your country? Look up more to American and some people jusdge your intlligence if you cant speak English better, off course skills cant be judge only to speaking in English, hahaha, but not all Filipino can speak straight English, there still few, depends of where a person live and the status of their lives.
