The clip begins with a scene of Trang being tied up and beaten by the crafty villain.
Formaldehyde injected into meat for extended freshness
The crafty villain remarks: 'This is an Indie piece of meat, this formaldehyde enhances its freshness and it will reach Gordon Ramsay's dining table.'
Gordon Ramsay is a renowned chef, owner of numerous restaurants, and a Scottish television personality.
This is an image of a 1977 Vlog-style pit-stop preparing for the 'Rice 1' racing event.
A pit-stop is where drivers bring their cars to a halt for technical checks, a crucial factor determining success or failure in F1 racing.
Image of 3 girls singing 'Borrowing Wine to Confess' with a twist: 'I borrow meat to confess, what about that?' hinting at the sharp rise in pork prices recently.
'Do you need me to accompany you with the guitar while you sing?' - Trang's flirtatious remark evokes memories of the controversy between K-ICM and Jack.
'There might be millions of single men soon' - Mentioning the gender imbalance issue and forecasting millions of Vietnamese men at risk of being single in 2020.
Image of a girl lamenting 'Please prince, forgive my cursed sister,' referring to the recent sensational phrase, originating from Fiona's dialogue in a song from the fairy tale excerpt 'Diamond and the Frog's Croak.'
The complete dialogue goes: 'Oh prince, please forgive my cursed sister, it was I who sang that song, my sister has already accepted the consequences. Please do not make things worse.'
Rejected, Trang sarcastically retorts to the girl: 'If you persist like that, your single life will be as long as the Volga River.' The Volga River is a river in western Russia. It is also the longest river in Europe, stretching 3,690 km.
'Rich dad cu' is a phrase from the original work Wife Picker by the writer Kim Lân. This is a transliteration from French rich beaucoup which means 'very wealthy'.
'Or maybe you accept my gene code!' - A bold confession line in the style of specialized Biology from 1977 Vlog's skit.
Regarding becoming Trang's wife, the character 'thị' was treated by Trang's mother 'like a meal but with a 4-star Michelin porridge.'
The Michelin star is likened to the Grammy of gastronomy, known as a standard for evaluating the quality of fine dining worldwide.
Unlike the hotel structure divided into 5 stars, the Michelin star only has three levels corresponding to 3 stars, 2 stars, and 1 star, among which 3 stars are considered the pinnacle of culinary excellence.
1 Michelin star means 'a good restaurant', 2 stars means 'innovative cooking', and 3 stars means 'exceptional food quality'.
'Would any fan ever tie up their idol like that?' - Trang's profound remark on the relationship between fans and idols.
'Ah, so you choose death' refers to an image commonly used by the Vietnamese online community for humorous intimidation purposes.
This image depicts an elderly man with white hair and a menacing expression along with the phrase 'Ah, so you choose death.'
The origin of this meme is from the Lord of the Rings movie, where the wizard Saruman mutters to himself as Gandalf escapes: 'So you have chosen death.'
Trang is stabbed with a cylinder containing formaldehyde, a sinister substance used to preserve food to prevent decay and spoilage.
After being injected with formaldehyde, Trang enters a state of suspended animation for several decades without aging. This detail evokes comparisons to Captain America, the superhero who was forgotten for 70 years.
The final segment of the clip shows Mr. Dậu (a character previously featured in the parody video Sister Dậu - the dark ages era by 1977 Vlog).
Mr. Dậu has traveled to Moscow (Russia) to find his little Tí, now named 'Na-Tí-Sha' (inspired by Natasha Romanoff, the Black Widow character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe), to form a team, hinting at the formation of the 1977 Vlog version of The Avengers superhero team.
