Internet meme edit
The character Zero Two from the Japanese anime television series Darling in the Franxx[8] had become a popular subject for internet memes. A video posted in 2018 depicted Zero Two doing a popular hip-swaying dance associated with the 2014 song "ME!ME!ME!" by TeddyLoid.[9] In November 2020, an anime music video of the Zero Two dancing clip put to the Kaiz remix version of "Hai Phút Hơn" went viral, leading to an internet meme.[10] The video also intercut Zero Two dancing with the character of Marija the Violinist from the mobile rhythm game Muse Dash, who is seated on a black limousine while tapping out the beat.[11]
A trend, starting in China, then saw users on Douyin mimicking the dance in real life.[7] The Douyin user Cciinnn first used the song in a video.[12] The dance then crossed over to Douyin's international version TikTok, with videos by Sava Schultz and by Lauren Burch becoming particularly popular.[10] The dance has been performed by several K-pop idols, such as Aespa.[2]
Other remixes edit
In 2021, Pháo and Kaiz released a subsequent remix of the song under the name "2 Phút Hơn (Make It Hot)" with the US rapper Tyga.[3]
