The clip of Chinese dancers paying tribute to South Africa received thousands of likes. People commented on the video showing South African music's impact overseas.
In a video by @VideosVuvu, a group of Chinese dancers was showing off their moves to a South African-Chinese blend of music. The song's vocals were Chinese, but were accompanied by amapiano beat drops, and it sounded like the track was a mixture of genres. The Chinese dancers pulled off several South African amapiano dance moves popularised on TikTok. All three dancers delivered energetic recreations of popular amapiano moves.
The video of the Chinese dancers made X users think of international dancer and choreographer Limpopo Boy. The entertainer got credit for spreading amapiano in Asia as he often hosts amapiano dancer classes overseas.
