Chinese audiences outraged by low score for Trang Phap's team at 'Sisters Who Make Waves'

Vietnamese singer Trang Phap and her Chinese teammates delivered a stunning performance at the fourth round of the "Sisters Who Make Waves" competition, but their score of 838 points has sparked outrage among Chinese audiences.

The team, featuring Trang Phap alongside Chinese artists Li Xintao, Xu Mengjie, and He Xuanlin, presented a spy-themed act called "DNA." The performance incorporated a mysterious and powerful musical atmosphere, with Trang Phap contributing a modern rap section in English to the song's X-part.

Beyond the music, the choreography of "DNA" drew significant attention for its complexity. The four artists executed demanding routines, including aerial silks and pole dancing with 180-degree drops. Their synchronized and captivating movements earned praise from rival teams and critics, who noted the production's high standard, comparable to Trang Phap's previous successful performance in Vietnam.

Despite being considered one of the night's most explosive and technically challenging acts, the team's score of 838 points ignited a fierce debate on social media platforms in both Vietnam and China. Many Chinese netizens expressed shock and dissatisfaction, arguing that the performance's impact and technical difficulty did not align with the low score awarded by the judges and live audience.

The "DNA" performance has been a significant media success, dominating trending topics on Weibo. The phrase "DNA is too cool" quickly became a top search term, highlighting the act's strong online resonance despite the controversial scoring.
