1. 這群人Zhè qún rén
T.G.O.P(This Group Of People)

Number of subscribers: 3.55 million
A team composed of 7 people, Zhan rong(展榮), Zhan rui(展瑞), Yin sheng(茵聲), Shi tou(石頭), Jupiter(木星), Nick(尼克), and Dong Zai(董仔). On August 3, 2011,這群人 officially published their first video on YouTube. Their videos focus on making fun and humor. Their materials originate mostly from life, which not only makes the audience feel funny, but also often resonates with audience.
The success of “這群人” is nothing more than the professional performances and eloquent dialogues in the video, which can always deeply interpret the depression and helplessness of modern people in the workplace or in life. This helps audience to express their difficulty because it is difficult for them to speak to others under the social custom.
I just name a few videos shown below. Their YT videos are updated on the 15th and 30th of each month (28 or 29 in February). Lastly, their videos are all equipped with English subtitles!
