“I learned English through listening toEminemthe rapper,” Choi said in the video. “It’d be an honor for me to stand on the stage with you.”

“Carrie was sofun to perform with, and I got so hyped up to the point where my glasses fell off,” Choi told PEOPLE exclusively afterwards. “Carrie was very nice and picked up the glasses for me! As I was leaving the stage, everyone was cheering for me, asking to take pictures. I couldn’t get out of the arena for about 40 minutes. It was an experience I’ll never forget. Thanks to Carrie’s Crew, I’ll never forget feeling like a superstar.”
