Summer break has officially become glow-up season for China's newly graduated high schoolers, and social media is absolutely flooded with their incredible before-and-after transformations! These students are trading their uniform-clad, glasses-wearing, textbook-focused personas for bold new looks that scream "freedom at last."

After years of academic tunnel vision, they're using this post-exam period to experiment with personal expression through style while simultaneously diving into skill development. We're talking about the ultimate "post-exam starter pack": some are going the beauty route (nails, hair, makeup), while others are investing in practical skills like driving lessons, office software mastery, and even coding bootcamps.

The "Little Sweet Water" (小甜水) trend is completely taking over China's alcohol market, and it's basically what happens when beer decides to cosplay as bubble tea.

Traditional beer brands like Tsingtao and Yanjing have jumped on the bandwagon with flavors like "Strawberry Grapefruit" and "Jasmine White Beer," while retail giants like Freshippo and Sam's Club are experimenting with wellness-inspired concoctions featuring red dates, goji berries, and even hawthorn ginger.

The wildest part? They're now making beer that tastes like candied hawthorn and exotic mushrooms—literally turning craft beer into liquid dessert. "Little Sweet Water" has become the essential accessory for China's nightlife scene, offering a "safe drunk" experience that sits comfortably between sobriety and full party mode.

Last week, Hermès did something they've only done once before in their entire history—took their runway show outside of France, and Shanghai was the chosen one. After their groundbreaking "Second Chapter" show in NYC, designer Nadège Vanhée selected Shanghai as the backdrop for Hermès' latest global moment, and honestly? The choice was perfect. https://radii.co/article/hermes-runway-shanghais-au-galop

A new breed of "philosophy consultants" is popping up across China, armed with folding tables, plastic stools, and cardboard signs torn from delivery boxes. For just 10 yuan (about $1.40), you can get 15 minutes of existential advice at art galleries, music festivals, and temple entrances.

These DIY philosophers tackle everything from workplace drama to mother-in-law problems, promising to help you discover your "deeper self" in under an hour. The setup is beautifully chaotic: think fortune tellers but make it Sartre. One group of philosophy PhD students tried combining their street wisdom with sausage sales, branding their stall "Friends, Sausages, Truth."

About RADII

RADII (rā’dē-ī’) is an independent media platform that provides a unique lens on today’s China and its next generation. We cut through the noise to uncover dynamic stories from the inside, spanning culture, creativity, tech and a lot more in between.

Based in China and the United States, and with contributors across the globe, we explore China from all angles. We ask “what is China?” every day, in ways no one has before.
