With only a few days to go to the Chinese Lunar New Year Eve on February 9 this year, the Spring Festival evening galas of various TV stations have now become one of the biggest concerns of the Chinese audience.
However, as many netizens have discovered, this year's galas, from central to local, are all going international: China Central Television (CCTV) has invited pop diva Celine Dion; Shanghai-based Dragon TV has PSY, the most popular Korean figure of 2012; Anhui TV Station gets classical crossover star Sarah Brightman; and Hunan TV has the popular South Korean girl group f(x).
While some netizens are excited about such famous foreign figures coming to China, others wonder why the Spring Festival galas in China today have to depend on big-name foreign stars.
