Snow much fun! China MOFA spox's adorable panda video goes viral

"China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Mao Ning, posted a charming video of a giant panda at Luanchuan Bamboo Sea Wildlife Park as it enjoyed a snowy day, delighting fans online. Footage released on her official social media account shows the lovable panda, Ling Yan, delighting in snow-filled antics, including rolling playfully, performing somersaults, and gleefully sliding down a slope. Mao's caption, 'Snow falls, panda rolls. Another side of the chubby animal you only see in winter', summed up the panda's unique charm during the winter season. The panda's self-entertainment mode left viewers worldwide expressing admiration. Notably, some Japanese netizens commented under Mao's post, requesting 'give us a panda' as twin giant pandas Xiao Xiao and Lei Lei are set to return to China in late January. This marks the end of Japan's panda presence for the first time in over 50 years. Domestic social media platforms witnessed an influx of humorous remarks such as 'That smoothness is perfect' and 'I want to assign it homework,' while hashtags like #MaoNingSharesPandaSnowPlayingVideoWithTheWorld# amassed over 10 million views."
