From epic historical sagas to sleek modern romances, Chinese TV series have become a cultural phenomenon in Vietnam. During his state visit, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and President Xi Jinping highlighted this trend in a signed article for Vietnam’s Nhan Dan newspaper, emphasizing how shared cultural roots are building bridges between the two nations.
CGTN’s street interviews in Da Nang revealed a fanbase hooked on storytelling. 🎭 "Chinese dramas dive deep into history and traditions—it feels familiar yet fascinating," shared Tung, a local resident. Many Vietnamese viewers resonate with themes of family, honor, and love, often echoed in their own culture. 📜
But it’s not just nostalgia driving the craze. With slick production values and streaming platforms like Tencent and iQIYI going global, access has never been easier. Plus, the rise of Mandarin learning in Vietnam means fewer subtitles and deeper connections. 🚀
As Gen Z swaps K-drama references for #Cdrama TikToks, this trend reflects a broader cultural dialogue—one where history meets hashtags. 🌐✨
