I was scrolling through Weibo last night, half-asleep on my couch in Vancouver, when a notification popped up from my cousin back in Shanghai. She’d tagged me in a post about @展轩’s new song ‘你’—a follow-up to his hit ‘我’ that she knew I’d been waiting for. My thumb hovered over the play button, already imagining the melody, but all I got was that dreaded grayed-out icon and a message: ‘This content is not available in your region.’
It hit me right in the gut. See, my cousin and I used to binge-listen to 展轩’s tracks during high school study sessions, sharing one pair of earphones like it was some secret ritual. I could almost smell the cheap instant coffee we’d chug to stay awake, taste the salty tears we shed over his ballads. Now, oceans apart, that simple act of hitting ‘play’ felt like trying to hug through glass.
The post described the song as ‘a tribute that can’t use ‘you all’—because every bit of support comes from specific, real people.’ Ironic, huh? Here I was, one of those specific people who’d streamed his debut on loop during midnight cram sessions, now locked out by digital borders. Stats show over 60 million Chinese live overseas—that’s a lot of missed connections when geo-blocks slam shut.
I messaged my cousin back: ‘Remember how we’d sneak his songs into our graduation video edits?’ She replied with a crying-laughing emoji and a voice note—her humming the new chorus she’d memorized. My screen stayed silent, but my memory filled in the gaps with the crackle of old headphones and the warmth of shared dreams. Sometimes, tech ‘progress’ feels like two steps back.
So here’s my question for you fellow overseas folks: when was the last time a geo-block made you feel homesick for a song, show, or movie? Drop your stories below—let’s turn this frustration into a chorus of ‘me too’s that even firewalls can’t mute.
