Dancing Out Youthful Dreams with Sign Dance, Displaying Taiwan on the Global

Stage Once Again

Recently, an unusual "sign language craze" has caught fire among Taiwanese

students. In order to help students realize their dreams of being seen by a

wider audience, Cafe Plaza, a brand of coffee in Taiwan, helped students to

shoot a "sign dance" music video, which was enthusiastically received by

Taiwanese media and shared by netizens.

The public's impression of "sign language"is used by mute patients and

interpreted in the news. Taiwanese students have made it unique in an

exceptionally creative way. They have combined sign language with dance and

developed innovative "sign dance" performances to make "sign language" more

appealing. Even more surprising, Taiwan coffee brand Cafe Plaza decided to help

this creative group of remarkable students, so that these high schoolers can

step up and be seen by everyone.

A group of 16-year-old high schoolers performed one of the world's best sign

dances which combines sign language and dancing. It is on par with the professionals!

"Sign dance" is a type of special performance developed by students, which is

also the main method of performance for Taiwan's unique high school "sign

language associations". The Taiwan high school sign language associations

developed sign dance which is a type of special performance. The original

intention of the Sign Language Society was to attract greater attention to sign

language and inspire people to learn sign language, which is why dance elements

were added which are popular among students. Up to now, the sign language clubs

in Taiwan's high schools have developed extraordinary associations in which

members display top-tier dancing skills, while also communicating by sign language.

And this sign dance music videos, which has become viral amongst young people

in Taiwan, features performers who are only 16-year-old high school students

from a sign language society. They practiced tirelessly for a long period of

time, and their consummate skills were on par with those of professional

dancers. Their perfectly synced sign language more truthfully conveyed their

spirit of standing up for their dreams and their hope to be seen by the world.

Cafe Plaza helps Taiwan's valiant college students showcase Taiwan's unique

sign dance all over the world

More than 40 students from sign language clubs in four of Taiwan's well-known

high schools gathered to take part in the MV. Wearing school uniforms and

incorporating the campus life into their background, they released the

impassioned energy of 16-year-old youth and garnered overwhelming praise from

Taiwanese netizens regardless of gender.

It was not only the sign dance music video (MV) that made people excited. The

song used in the MV is also the theme song of Taiwan's well-known coffee brand,

Cafe Plaza. Cafe Plaza holds an annual music competition for Taiwanese students

which supports students in realizing their dreams. This year, Aden, a

19-year-old runner up in last year's competition, received a special invitation

to create a theme song. The lyrics depicted a story of training diligently and

encouraged students to pursue their dreams. As soon as it was released in

Taiwan, it resonated deeply with young people and garnered more than 2 million

views in less than a week. This time, sign dance was used to once again convey

the spirit of pursuing a common dream amongst Taiwan's students. As the song

says, "step forward and show yourself to the world."

The life of these Taiwanese high school students is not easy. They jointly

performed this energetic? song which represents the aspirations of Taiwan's

students in order to let the whole world know that: "As Taiwanese High School

Students, we will bravely step up and realize our dream of being seen by the

entire world!"
