I was scrolling through my cousin’s WeChat moments yesterday, half-asleep in my tiny apartment in Toronto, when a video popped up. It was a grappy clip of him and his friends belting out this energetic tune—something called ‘Shake Mercury’ by Sun Tiantian and others. The sound was a bit muffled, but I could hear the raw passion in their voices, like they were shouting their hearts out in a crowded karaoke room back home.
You know that feeling when a song hits you out of nowhere? My cousin had typed, ‘Four years we waited for this shake, and now it’s finally mercury-ing!’ with a bunch of crying-laughing emojis. I clicked the link to QQ Music, eager to listen properly, but all I got was a spinning loading icon and then that dreaded message: ‘This content is not available in your region.’ Ugh, my heart sank like a rock.
It reminded me of last month, when I tried to watch a popular Chinese variety show with my roommate. We’d made popcorn, dimmed the lights, and then—buffering. Endless buffering. She sighed and said, ‘It’s like we’re stuck in a digital no-man’s-land, missing out on all the inside jokes and trends.’ That stung, because it’s true. For us overseas, it’s not just about entertainment; it’s about staying connected to the culture, the laughs, the shared memories.
Back to ‘Shake Mercury’—I ended up asking my cousin to send me a screen recording. Watching it on my phone, I noticed the little details: the way the singers’ eyes lit up during the chorus, the casual high-fives that felt so familiar, like those late-night hangouts we used to have. The lyrics, ‘Say what we say, do what we do,’ echoed in my head. It’s funny how a song can make you feel both incredibly close and painfully far from home.
I’m no tech expert, but I’ve talked to so many friends here who face the same struggles. One buddy in Sydney told me he spends hours searching for workarounds just to stream the latest dramas, while another in London joked that geo-blocks are the real ‘great wall’ for us. It’s a shared headache that bonds us, even if it’s frustrating.
So, if you’re like me, nodding along because you’ve been there—staring at a ‘not available’ screen while everyone back home is buzzing about the newest release—let’s share our stories. What’s the one show or song you desperately wanted to access but couldn’t? Drop it in the comments; maybe we can laugh (or cry) about it together.
