China's short video apps get a makeover

In this episode of Round Table, Steve, Xingyu, and Yushan discuss two main topics: the evolving social features of short-form video platforms in China, such as Douyin and Kuaishou, and the emerging trend of office workers incorporating exercise into their workday. The first segment explores whether these video platforms are successfully transforming into social networking hubs akin to WeChat Moments, considering user habits and the saturation of social media apps. The second segment delves into the reasons behind the "desk workout" trend, examining its benefits, potential drawbacks, and whether it's a genuine health initiative or just a passing gimmick.
