In this edition of KTV Time, Tom and David introduce China's "campus folk" genre of music. Started in Taiwan in the 1970s, this genre has played a major influence in defining modern Chinese music. This week's song 《同桌的你》(Tóngzhuō de Nǐ, "You, My Deskmate") is a classic of the genre with a sweet story behind it to boot! Please click here to have a listen to the song.
