Stuck Overseas? Here’s How I Finally Got My Chinese Music Fix Without the Buffering Nightmare

I was sitting in my tiny Tokyo apartment, trying to check QQ Music’s latest charts like I used to back in Shanghai. The page loaded painfully slow, and when I clicked on Tian Xuning’s ‘Light Flame’ – the top song this week – all I got was that dreaded ‘This content is not available in your region’ message. My bubble tea suddenly tasted bitter.

Stuck Overseas? Here's How I Finally Got My Chinese Music Fix Without the Buffering Nightmare

Remembering how my cousin in Vancouver complains about the same thing every time we video chat – she misses Modern Brothers Liu Yuning’s new releases so much that she actually asked me to record them and send them through WeChat. The audio quality was terrible, like listening through a tin can. ‘It’s 2024,’ she sighed, ‘why does it feel like we’re back to sharing cassette tapes?’

What struck me was the irony: these charts are meant to connect Chinese music lovers worldwide, yet the very fans who might need that connection most – those of us living overseas – hit this digital wall. The ‘Zhongdi Ba Wang Yiheng’ track at number three? I could see the thumbnail, but clicking play was like trying to open a locked door with the wrong key.

The buffering issues made it worse. I’d get 10 seconds of a song before it stalled, turning what should be a smooth listening experience into a frustrating game of ‘will it or won’t it play?’ It reminded me of dial-up internet days, except now we’re supposed to have 5G.

But here’s the thing – after months of trial and error (and complaining to anyone who’d listen), I finally found some workarounds that actually work. No, I’m not some tech wizard; just someone who really, really wanted to hear these songs without jumping through hoops. If you’re nodding along right now, stay tuned – I’ll share what worked for me in the next part.
