COMEDY WITH BITE.
The BenZi Project is comedy sketch series aimed at making you laugh, then think, then cry uncontrollably in existential dread (in that order). The brainchild of Singaporean-based actors and writers Benjamin Kheng (of The Sam Willows) and Hirzi Zulkiflie (of MunahHirziOfficial), BenZi exists in the same world as mermaid frappuccinos and beer yoga, as the show no one asked for or deserves, but is going to get anyway.

[@revelbangtanexo2642]

LMAO SAME AND I LOST AGAIN WHEN AH KEN FOUND OUT BEN PUT THE LAST PAISEH PIECE IN ONE OF HIS ORANGES LMAOOOOOO

[@Confaderal]

For those who dun understand: A “paiseh piece” is like the last piece of food in a dish or a plate. When eating with a group of friends we always vigorously try to politely “invite” others to eat that last piece of food. Usually the other person will push it back to us. It’s an asian term of endearment. It’s similar to a gentleman holding a door for a lady or a friend. It shows we care for the other person or are just simply being polite. But in this case, sometimes the “back-and-forth” goes on for awhile(although not as aggressive as this video, haha) This video exagerates the whole “back-and-forth” into a game of “who-is-going-to-yield-first”... (a good similarity is of how the “blinking game” is played) At the end of the video, the ‘paiseh piece’ is hidden in an orange, and the recipient has no choice but to “shamefully take” the paiseh piece as he’s locked outside. I hope this clears everything up.

Thanks, boss. You take the last piece ah. You deserve it.

[@capone70]

I have literally watched this sketch at least once a year since it came out...and laugh EVERY time. As talented as everyone is (and of course Ken has his own singing career) I just wish this would get more international attention so these excellent actors could make it big...which they deserve.

[@Diana-if8qd]

"I cannot eat, I have pre-diabetes, it's a warning sign of... Diabetes" hhhhahhahahaHAHAHAHAH

[@dianakanlee]

The minute he said "Kampong Timah", I died 🤣 Also I love the horror-inspired twist at the end, it's genius. Feels very Jordan Peele 😅

[@vibinginthedark3804]

i thought "shave your face. look like pubic hair" is funny enough but "sorry chee bai" is funnier😂 and hong, that's a nice trick.

[@janetc8846]

This is another piece of magnificent art work from a way underrated amazing and professional group of people like ughhhhh everything is so good. I knw Ben and Hirzi's acting are good but really "Chee Bai" 's actress has mad acting skills and she just brings out he realism and intensity of the character aaaaaa. Overall 100000000000000000000000% As always.

[@midas1019]

I know things aren't that simple when she's addressed 'Ah Bai'

I find myself coming back to this video once every other day to hear Ben say “I got no nose” HAHAHA

[@Mtfkrx]

Contemporary Singapore satire at its best. Would love to see more political and current affairs, racial is too boring we already have Kumar. Solid actors, bring back that multilingual guy from the interview. Get Janice Koh, Kheng Hua, Adrian Pang et al. on too or maybe the Noose crew. Solid young bloods as well ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@juliatzw]

as usual, quality content from the BenZi Project 👍🏼

[@vansonthewall8]

I DIED when he opened the orange and there was the xlb inside

[@zahemi914]

This part i still havent figured out yet. Is it a cultural-avoiding thing to give 'eaten-already' oranges?

[@xxDxxism]

@@zahemi914 he put the last piece inside the orange. Gate locked can't return the piece.

"Dont hold me hostage.. just because I chinese"😂😂😂

[@adr7nts]

Kinda frustrated watching this. Let me get this straight. They played prank on their (seemingly) littlest brother as he thought it was the last piece, turned out there's still a bunch of dumplings after that one. The CCTV refers to the house being wayy too far inside the block that they couldn't hear the paiseh screaming. It's roughly like that isn't it

[@josephfroggychong9767]

gosh u guys r BRILLIANT!!!! you deserve more views than this!!!
