Ever wondered what it’s like to navigate life as a foreign student in China? Lukas Meets China, a viral mini-series by CGTN, dishes up the hilarious and heartwarming adventures of Lukas, a German student, as he tackles chopsticks, Mandarin mishaps, and kung fu dreams in traditional Hanfu. Think dumpling disasters meets cultural awakening!
From Breakfast Blunders to Lantern Festivals
Lukas isn’t alone—his international squad of roommates ( squad goals!) dive headfirst into China’s vibrant traditions. Picture this: Lukas attempting to order \"baozi\" (steamed buns) with charades-level Mandarin, then later rocking Hanfu during Spring Festival like a wuxia hero. Spoiler: It’s equal parts awkward and adorable.
Why Gen Z Can’t Stop Watching
The series isn’t just laughs—it’s a love letter to cultural curiosity. With the Lunar New Year wrapping up, the show’s Lantern Festival special serves up nostalgia and eye candy (think glowing lanterns and tangyuan sweets). Whether you’re a wanderlust-addicted traveler or just craving feel-good content, Lukas’ journey proves that messing up is part of the magic.
