Following the trend of making banh chung paper: Gen Z flocks to celebrate Tet even though...Christmas season is not over yet

Recently, students have created an extremely creative trend of making Chung cake out of paper in class. Seeing students rushing to make Chung cake makes many people excited for the traditional Tet holiday.

Banh Chung and Banh Tet are traditional dishes that are indispensable during the Lunar New Year. However, has anyone tried cooking Banh Chung and Banh Tet online? In the days approaching the end of the year, Gen Z has created a new trend with clips of cooking Banh Chung while going to school, attracting millions of views on social networks.

Specifically, in the shared videos, Gen Zers made all the cooking utensils and banh chung and banh tet out of... paper, with firewood underneath and the effect of fire flickering from the phone screen. To make it more lively, many people also played Tet songs and added fireworks effects from their phones. These creative pots of banh chung and banh tet have made the online community excited for Tet even though Christmas is not over yet.

To add to the Tet atmosphere, the students did not forget to incorporate familiar Tet songs into their clips. The cheerful melodies from songs like "Tet dong day", "Tet la Tet" or "Ngay Tet que em" every time they were played, everyone was looking forward to Tet to reunite with their families.

Facing this 'unique Binh Duong' trend, Gen Z expressed their interest in this cute trend: "Watching these clips makes me really excited, I can't wait for Tet!", "Paper banh chung looks so real and cute, I've been waiting for Tet to come to reunite with my family!", "The smoke and fire effects are so real, watching it makes me feel like I'm standing next to a pot of banh chung."

The reason Gen Z is responding positively to the movement of making banh chung with paper is because it reminds young people of the traditional Tet holiday: "This trend has evoked for me a very cozy traditional Tet atmosphere. Especially the image of the family sitting together watching the banh chung pot and watching fireworks on New Year's Eve. Thinking about that, I just want Tet to come quickly," said one person.

Nowadays, young people are busy with studying and rushing into the labor market, so they are no longer interested in the traditional Tet holiday. Every Tet season, there are always complaints like "Tet is so boring!", "Tet has nothing to do", "Tet is just like a normal holiday",... Because young people in the city have long since stopped keeping the tradition of staying up to watch over the pot of banh chung and banh tet with their families at the end of the year, and do not have time to sit down and wrap the cakes together because everyone is busy with something. The trend of making banh chung on Tet holiday with paper seems to evoke the longing for the traditional Tet holiday, the longing for a warm Tet with family that Gen Z has not experienced for a long time.

Some office workers also expressed that when they saw students "following" this trend, they also felt happy surfing the internet these past few days. Thanks to this trend, many people realized that Tet was near, and expressed that they had to try this trend with their colleagues in the office to feel the Tet atmosphere and create a comfortable atmosphere at work.

Some people started counting down the days to return home for Tet after watching a video clip of making banh chung out of paper. "This trend is quite fun and meaningful because through it, I can feel the atmosphere of the traditional Tet holiday," a netizen shared. Many people expressed that no matter how the economy is or what their job is, they will definitely return home to have a family reunion meal this Tet. Every year, they work hard just to wait for this day.

Gen Zers also humorously said that although it looks made of paper and is so small, it took two people an hour to complete the pot of banh chung. This trend is not too difficult to follow, but it takes time, meticulousness, and skill to create a complete product.
