Senegalese-Italian social media star Khaby Lam, best known for his silent reactions to over the top life hacks that earned him the nickname “speechless brother”, touched down in Beijing on Tuesday to begin his China trip, according to a post on his Sina Weibo account.
The TikTok sensation, who boasts more than 160 million followers, is scheduled to visit Tianjin in northern China on Wednesday, head to Chongqing in the southwest on Sunday, and take part in intangible cultural heritage activities in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, next Wednesday, according to a livestream announcement from Kuaishou, one of China’s major short video platforms.
Lame said he is eager to discover Chinese culture and history, with a special fascination for kung fu. He also expressed excitement about tasting local food. “I’ve never been there, it’s gonna be my first time,” he shared in the video.
