14 DAY TRIAL // This video from 2005 has over 14 million views on YouTube. It features a duet by Chinese boys lip-syncing to the Backstreet Boys' That Way.
The video made Wei Wei and Huang Yi Xin (“the big one” and “the small one”) an instant hit in China. After it went viral in '05, the two went off to be known as the Back Dorm Boys.

The Sina.com Chinese portal awarded these two the "Best Podcaster Award" in 2006, and scouting agency Taihe Rye signed them on for a 5-year contract to record lip sync videos.
The Back Dorm Boys covered a few other songs before falling off the radar. Here is their rendition of the Black Eyed Peas' Don't Lie:
