The song "International House Cleaning", released in 2021, is currently being re-shared by young people across various social media platforms. Short videos featuring the song's chorus, integrated with house cleaning activities, have garnered hundreds of thousands of views.
Mai Lan from Hai Phong said the music video is being re-watched because it captures the sentiment of young people as Tet approaches. They look forward to the festive reunion atmosphere but are busy with house cleaning and year-end tasks. "International House Cleaning" uses music and dance to tell the familiar story of Gen Z during the Tet season. Its lively melody, concise lyrics, and cheerful rhythm transform the often-tiring task of house cleaning into a lighthearted, entertaining experience that helps them refresh for the new year.

Appearing throughout the music video, bottles of Zero Degree Green Tea become a solution to help cool down during cleaning hours. This is also the message the song's producers want to convey to the audience: Tet is not just about a tidy home, but also about a refreshed spirit, ready to welcome the new year.
On social media, many young viewers expressed seeing themselves in every frame of the music video.
Gia Hung, 18, from Hanoi, said every year-end, what awaits everyone is a long cleaning checklist and endless scrubbing sessions. For many families, year-end cleaning is an indispensable part of preparing for Tet. However, for Gen Z, a generation busy with work, studies, and personal lives, "house cleaning" can sometimes become an unnamable pressure. These are the days of late finishes at work, followed by rolling up sleeves to clean, and the feeling of heat and exhaustion as tasks pile up with the Tet holiday still ahead.
Yet, thanks to the lively, gentle melody and fun choreography in "International House Cleaning", a positive spirit is spread during the year-end period. Minh Anh, 19, from TP HCM, shared, "Every year-end, I play this song to get motivated. Cleaning no longer feels like torture, but more like a dance practice or light entertainment."
"Every time I clean, I play this song to create a fun atmosphere, and cleaning feels less tiring," Minh Anh said.
