Tan Chuang(Peering Through the Window) is a guofeng (Chinese traditional style) song jointly performed by the guofeng music teams Guofeng Xinyu, Fushengmeng, and Xiyin Society. Written by lyricist Dongfang Qianyue and composed by Guo Fenglin, it was released on June 12, 2021. Rooted in classical Chinese poetry, the song blends opera singing styles with modern pop elements, becoming a highly popular representative of "xiqu (traditional opera)-inspired guofeng" music in recent years.
The lyrics draw inspiration from the "Four Great Joys of Life" motif in the Northern Song Dynasty's Poems of Prodigies but invert it into a tragic core: a woman waits bitterly for her beloved, who rejects their past relationship after achieving academic success. The two become "a stage performer and a stranger in the audience," exposing the coldness of human relationships beneath fame and wealth, and triggering collective resonance with the "Chen Shimei-style tragedy" (a metaphor for betrayal from a successful lover in traditional operas). "Peering Through the Window" symbolizes the loneliness and longing of the woman watching by the window.
With its classical narrative, striking opera-style vocals, and universal emotional appeal, Peering Through the Window has become a milestone in guofeng music.
