Fright Night Friday: The Dark history of CNY’s famous tune

View descriptionShare

Dan Koh looks at the mystery behind the classic Chinese New Year song 'Gong Xi Gong Xi'. While the lyrics are upbeat and hopeful, the melody is in a minor key for a good reason. Its origin story is dark, thanks to a songwriter dealing with an enormous tragedy. Dan explains why we’ll never listen to 'Gong Xi Gong Xi' in the same way again.
