A Japanese journalist has become one of the most popular topics in recent days along the opening of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics Games for his effusive love to Bing Dwen Dwen, the Panda-shape mascot.


Gido Tsujioka, an announcer from Japan’s NTV, has earned himself a new name “Gido Dwen Dwen” after a sequence of video clips of Tsujioka went viral on the Chinese internet, which showed how Tsujioka, during live news, “showed off” his collections of Bing Dwen Dwen badges, met Bing Dwen Dwen in person and excitedly promoted Bing Dwen Dwen to Japanese audience.



According to Tsujioka, Bing Dwen Dwen has “saved his life.” It was because on the first day arriving at Beijing, Tsujioka lost his jacket on the plane and was feeling down. At the very moment, he saw the adorable Bing Dwen Dwen and was healed in one second.

Now, Tsujioka has eight Bing Dwen Dwen badges hanging on his press card. Apart from those, he was also wearing a Bing Dwen Dwen T-shirt and owns many other Bing Dwen Dwen souvenirs such as a scarf and clothes.



He has sent back a parcel full of Bing Dwen Dwen souvenirs back to Japan to let more Japanese people feel the charm of Bing Dwen Dwen.

However, Tsujioka did not expect that Bing Dwen Dwen had already been popular in Japan. On a Japanese second-hand trading website, Bing Dwen Dwens have either been marked up or sold out.



“I have received countless messages, asking me to bring Bing Dwen Dwen back to Japan,” Tsujioka said. “Maybe I will buy a lot of Bing Dwen Dwens, throw away my clothes and fill my suitcase with all Bing Dwen Dwens.”
