Reception

In 2015, Chen Tianwen's parody music video titled "Unbelievable", as part of episode 2 in Season 2, was "lauded" for the nonsensical line "I so stunned like vegetable" [sic], drawing the attention of Time magazine. A second parody music video, "Sandcastle in My Heart", in which Irene Ang also starred, did not become as popular as the previous one. Both videos are a parody of popular Chinese MVs in the 1970s, particularly the work of Singaporean singer Huang Qing Yuan. The "Unbelievable" music video was top of YouTube's list of the top trending (non-music) videos in Singapore for 2015.
