My cousin in Guangzhou sent me a Weibo link last night with the message: ‘You HAVE to see this gymnastics final! Zhang Boheng is insane!’ I was sitting in my Toronto apartment, wrapped in a blanket with my tea going cold, clicking frantically only to get that soul-crushing error message: ‘This content is not available in your region.’
You know that feeling? When you’re craving that slice of home through Chinese entertainment – whether it’s the latest historical drama your mom keeps raving about, or that viral variety show everyone’s discussing in the family group chat – and technology says ‘nope, not for you.’
The video my cousin sent showed Zhang Boheng, captain of Hunan’s gymnastics team during the National Games. Apparently his team was struggling, falling behind, championship hopes fading. But this guy – he competed in ALL six events. When it came down to the final horizontal bar routine, he went for the highest difficulty move despite the pressure. The commentator said he ‘walked with the momentum of a thousand soldiers and horses alone.’
I could only read the text descriptions and see the blurry screenshots my cousin kept sending. Each message felt like someone describing an amazing concert happening next door while I’m stuck outside listening through the walls.
Remember when we were kids visiting relatives in China during summer breaks? The whole family would crowd around the TV watching period dramas, eating watermelon seeds and arguing about which character was the villain. Now we’re adults scattered across different time zones, trying to recreate that connection through screens that keep saying ‘access denied.’
It’s not just about missing one sports event or TV show. It’s about those cultural touchpoints that make us feel connected to where we came from. That moment when you want to cheer for athletes like Zhang Boheng representing your hometown, or understand the memes your high school friends are sharing about the latest talent show.
My cousin finally video-called me and held his phone up to his TV screen so I could watch the grainy replay. ‘See?’ he said, ‘This is why everyone’s talking about him!’ Zhang’s final routine was indeed magnificent – the kind of performance that gives you goosebumps even through a pixelated video call.
So to all my fellow overseas Chinese nodding along right now – you’re not alone in this struggle. That frustration when you’re three episodes behind on the drama everyone’s discussing, or when you miss live sports moments that define an athlete’s career… it hits different when you’re thousands of miles away from home.
