Your Questions, Their Answers
From a Namibian student obsessed with Peking duck pancakes to a Colombian dancer decoding lion dance rhythms, the latest video features global voices asking about everything from ‘Why do Chinese grandparents raise kids?’ to ‘What’s the deal with rooftop veggie gardens?’ 🌱
Culture Without Borders
One Filipino vlogger perfectly sums up the vibe: ‘It’s like TikTok meets Confucius – finally someone explains mooncakes without the textbook jargon!’ 🥮 The project bridges gaps through food, traditions, and everyday life stories, making China’s 5,000-year-old culture swipe-right relatable.
While the initiative launched pre-2026, its user-generated Q&A format has blown up this year among language learners and K-pop fans discovering C-dramas. As one comment reads: ‘Never knew learning about tea ceremonies could be this lit 🔥’
