Yi Jian Mei was performed by Taiwanese singer Fei Yu-ching and released in 1983 as the theme for a television drama of the same name. Its opening chorus, beginning with the line about snowflakes drifting in the north wind, lay largely outside Western meme culture for decades until short video clips paired it with snowy landscapes and dramatic entrances in 2020. From there it spread through TikTok and reaction edits, where its earnest, old-fashioned delivery made even ordinary winter footage feel grand. That contrast keeps the chorus in regular use today.
O tym dźwięku
A short clip of Fei Yu-ching singing the Xue Hua Piao Piao chorus from Yi Jian Mei, used in memes and edits for dramatic winter scenes and emotional moments.
This clip captures the soaring, instantly recognisable chorus of Fei Yu-ching's classic Chinese song, with his clear, emotive voice rising over a gentle, traditional melody as he sings about snowflakes drifting in the north wind. Even in just a few seconds, the warm, slightly nostalgic tone feels both grand and heartfelt, which is why it lands so well when it appears unexpectedly. It can make an ordinary scene feel cinematic, turn a cold or snowy moment into a joke, or add a touch of sincere drama that viewers immediately recognise from countless memes and edits.
