Suddenly rising like wildfire on social media, these two fresh trends are being enthusiastically embraced by a multitude of young people.
Curiosity, fascination, enthusiasm, quick 'trend riding'... these are the psyche and reactions of young people towards the array of new trends in early 2024. Crawling under tables and eating green grapes are the most warmly received trends by Vietnamese youth on the first day of the new year. On social media platforms, this content draws in millions of views.
With just 12 green grapes prepared at the right moment of transition, eating under the table becomes a simple and easily achievable trend to follow along with the masses. However, many people are unaware of the purpose behind this activity and merely do it for amusement. Some even innovate by eating 12 grapes of different colors, or even different types of fruit, in varying quantities.
In reality, this trend is primarily a tradition practiced in Spain and some Latin American countries. It's known that each grape symbolizes a month in the year. If all grapes are consumed, the person will encounter numerous fortunate events in the new year, particularly in matters of love. Some have shared their smooth romantic journeys, 'wishing come true,' meeting boyfriends, and even getting engaged, further solidifying belief in this ritual.
Next in line is the coquette trend - 'tying a bow' to food is also rapidly taking over video platforms. Netizens are racing to post images, moments showcasing food adorned with bows as a declaration of successful trend-following.
Previously, this trend was widespread in the beauty and fashion circles, gaining significant attention in recent years. Just search the term 'coquette food,' and you'll find a plethora of standout videos. This trend signifies the charming, alluring, and elegant attributes of the main subject. This also implies the cleverness of trendsetters. It's enough to make social media buzz at the beginning of the year.
