I've no idea how the smorgasbord of cultural appropriation plays out in Bulgaria, but it seems that those who pay attention to the cultural politics of Bulgarian pop think that chalga is trash anyway.

The sax riff quotes this cod-Japanese synthpop song, hence the florescent colours, mock-Oriental font and cute Asian girl styling. But, this being sexy Bulgarian pop-folk, cute little Ani doesn't forget to show some thigh and flash her panties -- not for lolicon appeal but to reassure Bulgarian men that she's really all woman.

Turning back to real Asian pop, the strawberries remind me to mention Crayon Pop's first subunit, Strawberry Milk.
