I love this tiktok trend, my wife showed me a different one of these the other day where I think the girl is actually speaking mandarin instead of lipsyncing

Are you implying the person in this video lipsyncing?
I thought their Chinese was too good for 2 days.
Yeah, they seem to be to me, there's a few points where their mouth and expressions don't quite keep up with the audio.
Her Mandarin is probably at what someone who was learning one year full time outside of China would be at, and not to detract from the fact she speaks very fluidly and clearly she makes a number of word choice, pronunciation and grammatical errors which are indicative of her having actually learnt it though, not lip synching (e.g. 'for their decision' she says '为了他们...' which is odd and redundant, 应用 is Taiwanese but mainland would probably say 'APP' (ayy-pee-pee), she pronounces 住 zhù fourth tone as zhú rising second tone)
