Students from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) will be counselled after a video showing them creating a mess during a Chinese New Year celebration on Wednesday (Feb 11) went viral. The video, shared on TikTok on Thursday, shows the university students at a residential hall shouting while tossing and throwing yusheng at one another. Yusheng is a salad traditionally eaten during the Lunar New Year to symbolise abundance and prosperity. The dish involves tossing shredded ingredients into the air in a celebratory act known as lohei, but it does not involve throwing the food at one another. According to the post caption, the celebration is believed to have involved students staying at the school's halls 3, 12, 13, and 16. Responding to queries from AsiaOne, an NTU spokesperson said the university is aware of the incident and will be counselling the students involved regarding their behaviour and the importance of avoiding food wastage at future events.
