Netizens who came across these reimagined songs have been thoroughly amused by them and many have left requests for their school’s anthems to be remixed next.
“Do Springfield Secondary School song in K-pop,” reads one comment under a video of Deyi Secondary School’s remix posted on the account.
Another comment referring to the account’s cover of Qihua Primary School’s song described it as “pretty good”, adding that it sounded like a mixture of K-pop girl group Ive and Japanese group XG.
