More than 50 percent of junior high school students said they enjoyed watching these short videos. "About 47 percent have posted their own video." the China National Youth Palace Association reported.
The videos let teenagers see funny and exciting things they wouldn't usually see. For example, a 12-year-old user named Xiaoqiangyu posts videos showing her learning jazz dance. This wins her many fans.
However, the videos can also cause much trouble. Some videos have vulgar content（低俗内容）and it is not good for teenagers. Many teenagers imitate（模仿）what they see in short videos.
