I was scrolling through Weibo during my lunch break at a bubble tea shop in Toronto when the video popped up – Sui Wenjing and Han Cong, gliding across the ice with that familiar grace that made me tear up during the Beijing Olympics. The caption read they’d just taken bronze at the China Cup with a free skate score of 130.47 points, total 202.92. My first thought? ‘I wish my aunt in Vancouver could see this.’
Remember their Olympic gold performance? That moment when Han Cong lifted Sui Wenjing in that perfect spiral, the arena so quiet you could hear their blades cutting through the ice? This comeback felt just as emotional – you could see the determination in Sui’s eyes during their step sequence, the way Han’s shoulders relaxed when their final pose held. They may have been third, but the crowd’s roar sounded like they’d won gold all over again.
What hit me hardest was reading the comments from overseas Chinese fans. One user from Melbourne wrote: ‘Been refreshing for hours just to see pixelated versions that buffer every 10 seconds.’ Another from New York commented: ‘My mom called me crying because she couldn’t watch the livestream – she taught me to skate using Sui and Han’s videos.’
The weirdest part? I could almost smell the ice rink through my phone screen – that specific chill mixed with the scent of Zamboni fumes and nervous excitement. It took me back to watching figure skating with my grandmother, who’d always make tea whenever Chinese athletes competed, saying the steam helped her see the screen better through her tears.
And it’s not just about Sui and Han – it’s every cultural moment we miss. The new historical dramas our parents reference, the variety shows everyone’s quoting, the songs that become overnight sensations. Last month, my cousin in London missed the entire Mid-Autumn Festival gala because of geo-blocks, and we spent an hour on Zoom trying to describe the performances to her.
So here’s what I did after watching Sui and Han’s comeback – I screenshotted the best moments and made a mini-album for my relatives overseas. My aunt replied: ‘This is better than nothing, but I wish I could’ve heard the music with their performance.’ How many of you have similar stories? What Chinese content do you miss watching from abroad? Share below – maybe we can help each other bridge this digital distance.
