emphasis: different flavour: more flavourings
there are still differences with the world
the man on airplane: looks Chinese, but american. shows integration, globalization, can no longer easily distinguish people's nationality based on their appearance. globalization blurs the line of cultural identity.

still at the end their relationship is impossible: opposition by family: conservative traditional beliefs; not because of that mistake
apology: 不吃眼
integration with Chinese culture and open to western culture: plays violin, high culture, knows american dance; shocks Drey: show Chinese: open up, more than you can imagine
a Blonde boy: speaks english:
many features of modern China society:
Dama: 廣場舞
messy and hectic inner city, which are fairly truthful portrait of life in Beijing,
