Liu Genghong, who started as a singer, has shifted towards live streaming platforms in recent years due to the pandemic. He conducts daily workout sessions on Douyin, sparking the trend of 'Liu Genghong Boys and Girls.' At the end of last year, he held a concert, but it was met with complaints from the audience who said the concert was mostly about doing aerobics to Jay Chou's songs, with some attendees leaving midway due to dissatisfaction.
Last year, Liu Genghong held a concert in Chengdu, Sichuan, China, where he performed aerobics. While many netizens found the scene amusing, some ticket-buying attendees complained online, pointing out that the promotional material did not mention it would be an aerobics session. It was advertised simply as a concert, but upon entering, they discovered it was an aerobics concert, expressing disbelief. They also noted that only the front areas could accommodate the aerobics due to space constraints, leaving the back rows unable to participate.
Additionally, there were disgruntled netizens who claimed, “I left after watching for over an hour, it was too frustrating. Eight Jay Chou songs were played, none were sung, they were just used for aerobics,” and “For 3 hours, there was 15 minutes of singing, 2 hours of aerobics, and the remaining time was spent chatting.”
It is reported that when Liu Genghong began promoting the concert last year, the poster explicitly labeled it as a 'Dynamic Concert.' Before ticket sales started, he had also teased on Weibo, 'My belief is to promote a healthy lifestyle; a fitness concert offers a richer, more exciting stage presentation. No one has done this before… at least I haven't seen it… a concert where you have to do aerobics… will anyone come?'
