Performers La Hongsang and Huang Cancan arrived in coordinated blue and pink costumes modeled after the series Balala the Fairies.
Huang appeared as Ling Meixue, while La took on the role of Ling Meiqi, intending to evoke a “Magic Fairy Castle” atmosphere for the event, k.sina.com.cn reported.
The performance spilled off the carpet and into the backstage area, where La attempted to pull actor Chen Yao into the narrative. La improvised a scene, addressing Chen as the “Queen of the Magic Fairy Castle” and invoking a fictional conflict involving the character Prince Youle.
Chen, however, lacked the necessary context to perform the role-play.
Visibly confused by the sudden prompt, she responded:
“Ah? Who?”
She further questioned if she had a son, failing to recognize the character reference. The stark contrast between La’s total commitment to the bit and Chen’s genuine lack of recognition quickly became a viral point of interest for viewers, according to k.sina.com.cn.
La later addressed the encounter on Weibo, writing:
“pulled Chen Yao to unlock a new identity as the Queen of the Magic Fairy Castle.”
The interaction was smoothed by a history of professional collaboration.
Huang had also worked with Chen on earlier social media content, including a video featuring a staged flirtation where Chen remained a cooperative, if amused, participant. While La and Huang leaned into their coordinated “sister” personas to drive the evening’s theme, it was Chen’s unfamiliarity with the Balala the Fairies franchise that ultimately defined the unscripted exchange.
