Dances like Nanno in living room

This comical influencer created their own IRL version of Girl From Nowhere. Mae Ying Ling transformed herself into Nanno’s counterpart, “Leeno” and named their show “Girl From Muang Thip”, which means “Girl From Fictional Land”. 

Mae Ying Ling named the 69th episode of their series “Veen”, and the tagline translates to “Don’t make fun of my fringe”.

Can you beat Leeno?

Leeno is able to pull off Nanno’s famous dance and entertain us whilst we’re working from home in the midst of the pandemic. Perhaps, you can beat Leeno and reenact Nanno’s scenes from season two.
