It is understood that the performance can be requested by uttering the not-secret code "Ke Mu San", or Mandarin for subject three.

According to TikTok user candiselin86, The name subject three alludes to the belief by people from Guangxi that everyone is subjected to be tested in three areas in their life: singing folk song, eating rice noodles and having silky-smooth dance moves.
