They may look like aunties you see in Chinatown, but they certainly don’t move like them.<\/p>\n
A video of a dance troupe has gone viral after they were seen dancing with vigour inside a restaurant in Chinatown, according to a TikTok video uploaded by user Miaomiaoer422 on Sunday (Aug 23).<\/p>\n
The video has since garnered over 460,000 views and more than 20,200 likes as at Monday evening.<\/p>\n
The dance troupe, known as Fulan Dance Troupe (transliteration) from China, is led by Instagram user Superjohnnybaby, 8world reported on Monday.<\/p>\n
In the video, a group of five dressed in Nyonya outfits can be seen performing in front of a camera, along the aisles of restaurant seats in Gunkee Claypot.<\/p>\n
Beginning with a quick whip of their hair, the five then raise their right legs, kicking forward and pumping their arms in circles around them.<\/p>\n
Superjohnnybaby can be seen taking the lead, standing in front of the five performers.<\/p>\n
Spinning around, they push their backs out, before turning around and resuming the kicks again.<\/p>\n
\n\n @asiaone<\/a> Some netizens were entertained while others wondered if the dancers kicking their legs high in the restaurant would have posed hygiene issues. #sgnews<\/a> #singapore<\/a> #dance<\/a> #flashmob<\/a> \u266c original sound – AsiaOne<\/a><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n
They move out of the restaurant, cross the street while sashaying and skipping, ending the dance as they reach the opposite side.<\/p>\n
Many onlookers and restaurant-goers can be seen recording the group’s moves on their phones while others smile as they watch.<\/p>\n
In comments, some netizens praised their performance, with one user commenting, “I can tell you guys that kicking move thing they did is very, very difficult.”<\/p>\n
Another added: “Trying to kick and balance on top of dancing and synchronising is top tier work.”<\/p>\n
While some questioned the reason behind the performance, others criticised the group.<\/p>\n
“I don’t need entertainment. I am here to have good food. What’s the point?” said one.<\/p>\n
“Food is on the table, and their legs\u2026 so unhygienic,” another commented.<\/p>\n
