The third season of the hit talent show Sisters Riding the Winds and Breaking the Waves premiered on the video-sharing platform Mango TV this month.
The show gathered well-established figures in various fields, including singer-songwriter Zhang Qiang, dancer Zhu Jiejing, actress-turned-director Zhang Xinyi, Olympic gold medalist Xu Mengtao, Taiwan anchorwoman Aya, and Hong Kong actress Myolie Wu, to explore new possibilities in performances through collaborating with each other.
Xu said that she felt excited to embrace new challenges in the show.

Clips of the female contestants' debut stages in the show have gone viral on social media platforms recently, especially that of Cyndi Wang singing her catchy single Love You, once a smash hit after its release in 2004. The performance by Wang, who has been cast aside by the entertainment industry for a period of time, has sparked nostalgia in many viewers aged above 30. A-list actress Ning Jing and veteran singer Na Ying, winners of the show's first and second seasons respectively, were also invited to join the competitions.
