The first member to be welcomed back into the MoFanBangBangTang home and sing a traditional New Year song with everyone was MaoDi.
Significantly, MaoDi revealed that he had been picking up the dance style of Popping lately. XiaoXiang jokingly added that he had invited XiaoLe to come and assist MaoDi but XiaoLe had declined the request, stating that MaoDi should learn all the basics before coming to him. Defensively, XiaoLe claimed that he did come into the studio for a session but realised that MaoDi was still in the beginner's class so he opted to come back later when he could be of more help.
MaoDi showcased his current routine, which seemed to be a bit comedic at first as he pulled many hilarious facial expressions. However, it was gradually apparent that MaoDi had taken to the art of Popping as he could actually 'hit' quite well.
Next, Aben was welcomed back and he did an energetic rap to bring in the New Year. It was particularly impressive to see that Aben is experimenting with different, longer rhythms for his rap.
The 'old soldier', XiaoLu, also returned and he gave his traditional New Year song a R'n'B twist at the end.
Furthermore, XiaoLu performed a song to mesmerise everybody as his vocal talent had been much missed.
After his touching performance, XiaoLu pointed out that out of the Season II didis, ABC and YiTeng had significant singing talent in his opinion. However, when he was asked to compare himself with them, XiaoLu could only, jokingly, pull a very long face:
The insanely hilarious LiQuan returned, bouncing to a New Year song, building up to extremely hyper cries of 'Wahoo!' at the end:
LiQuan exhibited some ballroom dance steps that he had been learning for the CNY special. Significantly, he showed off a funny dance step, where he moved across the floor by twisting his body rigorously and claimed that he had learnt this from watching a female celebrity rehearsing at the studio!
In addition, LiQuan decided to challenge XiaoLong's breaking, and showed off his imitation of some of XiaoLong's signature moves. In response, XiaoLong mockingly agreed that he would teach LiQuan a few of his moves. LiQuan was hilariously cued to copy XiaoLong's freezes, which appeared to be quite painful for LiQuan, especially as LiQuan has had no formal Breaking training.
A fresh-faced WeiYu was next to arrive, and he gleefully sang a New Year song. FanFan pointed out that good old WeiYu had not changed one bit, in regards to the fact that he still did not listen to the cues of the music man, singing the 'Dong Qiang' cymbal clashing chorus to his own cheerful beat instead.
FanFan also jokingly enquired as to why WeiYu looked so much younger lately, to which WeiYu hilariously replied that he had been taking a course of Botox injections.
Before WeiYu did his impressive Popping performance, he was asked to pick a didi, whom he thought was doing well on the show. Indeed, WeiYu picked AhLiang because they attend the same dance studio and high school. This also gave WeiYu a cunning opportunity to emphasize that in the outside world, he was AhLiang's junior, while in Channel [V], he claimed the satisfying position of AhLiang's senior
Senior WeiYu, as the Popping King:
Next in line was XiaoMa, who struggled with his New Year song but broke through with a screechy high note at the end. XiaoMa explained that his vocal performance had been affected by his nerves, as Aben had commented that he sounded uncanningly good during rehearsals. Furthermore, XiaoMa joked that he purposely made himself sound worse for the show's effects.
However, XiaoMa truly made up for his singing with his wonderfully entertaining Locking performance, which had been choreographed by XiaoLu, down to the humourous hip thrusting.
The choreographer is credited:
LiQuan comments that XiaoMa dances handsomely but he thinks that XiaoMa looks incredibly ugly when he mouths the words, while thrusting his hips:
Finally, YeShou appeared in good cheer and later performed a very impressive and stable rendition of the song, '3 AM'.
In addition, YeShou was asked which Season II didi he disliked the most. YeShou chose AhJie, which caused LiQuan and WeiYu to haggle for revealing some gossip from amongst the crew. In the end, WeiYu claimed that the crew had realised that YeShou had some resemblance to AhJie, but they commented that AhJie was more handsome and 'refined'.
The next segment of the episode brought MoFanQiBang together with the Season II didis. Each member of QiBang had to draw out a didi's name and this particular didi would have to complete the subsequent QiBang member's order in order to earn a present from him:
1.) MaoDi drew out AhMan's name and asked him to pull out some leg hair that belonged to a member of the MFBBT crew. In return, AhMan received a very snazzy black coat, which MaoDi claimed could make Ahman even more handsome than XiaoLe.
2.) XiaoMa ordered AhJie to watch him sing a hilariously woeful tune about some mother and father without laughing. AhJie succeeded and received some aviator sunnies from XiaoMa.
3.) LiQuan asked XiaoXiao to kiss a member of the recording crew on the lips and rewarded XiaoXiao with some hair and body spray.
4.) YeShou pulled out XiaoLong's name and asked him to engage in a ten second cherry tomato eating competition. In the end, XiaoLong won, fitting more than seventeen cherry tomatoes in his mouth, while YeShou managed to fit twelve.
A nervous YeShou, with his mouth full of tomatoes, gives his band members a desperate look, to be rescued from XiaoLong:
5.) As he likes dancing in costume, WeiYu requested YiTeng to honour TuanTuan and YuanYuan, the new pandas at Taipei Zoo, with a dance in panda costume. WeiYu thought YiTeng did OK and presented him with a bicycle bell, which he hilariously bragged to give off a polyphonic ringtone as the bell could be split into halves.
6.) XiaoLu put ICE in the tough situation to choose between his life or receiving a present, as he requested him to cling to the fearsome XiaoLong for ten seconds. Upon succeeding to do this, ICE was rewarded with some fashionable headphones.
7.) Aben ordered FanDi to smell LiQuan's infamous foot, and threw in a special New Year's offer to choose between smelling LiQuan's foot for ten or thirty seconds. Logically, FanDi selected ten seconds, however Aben revealed that he would have to smell between his toes if it is for only ten seconds.
Hilariously, LiQuan had another one of his cramps whilst taking off his shoes but FanDi eventually fulfilled his unforgettable mission.
As a reward, Aben presented FanDi with the Winnie the Pooh bag that he and MaoDi carried during the Food PK episodes, as it was a significant accessory of their 'Obedient Child Fine Food Team'. FanFan also noticed that Aben had also added a framed photo of XiaoTianTian in the bag, and Aben replied that FanDi was free to think of XiaoTianTian whenever he was bored!
It was refreshing and funny to see MoFanQiBang back, and interacting with the Season II didis. FanFan also seemed to miss them, as at the end of the episode, she jokingly asked them to just stay behind forever.

They don't offer the proper traction for sliding, spinning or turning. A loafer-type is good, or any shoe with a smooth sole. For women, a shoe with a heel makes for attractive movements, but certainly isn't a necessity when you're first getting started. Later on, you may want to consider purchasing a pair of dance shoes.
