BEIJING - Office manager Li Xiaofeng would sometimes stay late in office on weekdays or try to meet her friends after work so that she can avoid the din from "guang chang wu" or plaza dancing in her neighbourhood.
It is less noisy now, during the winter, because it is too cold for the elderly to come out to dance, Ms Li, 27, told The Straits Times.
