From elaborate outfits to big choreographed dances, their ads are a must-watch during the festive season. Plus, the iconic "Ban Leng Leng" jingle will stay stuck in your head for days the second it plays!

Watsons just released their #HappyBeautifulYear CNY ad for 2020, and it's bigger and better than before!

In the video, the Chao family a.k.a. the "Trendy" family, features all kinds of interesting characters who come home to celebrate Chinese New Year together. However, things start to get heated between the younger ones and the uncles and aunties. Can they get over their differences and enjoy the new year together?

Watch the video below to find out:

The 5-minute video is full of funny and relatable moments - like that aunty who only knows how to nag, nag, nag

Seeing all the young people on their phones, one of the aunties can't help but start her usual nagging. The more she goes, the more heated things get.

Wah, then the young people listen until beh tahan liao, are they gonna start a fight?!

Obviously, the old generation doesn't understand them and just keep talking about traditions. Time to show the older ones how things should be done.

We got the shock of our lives when the uncles and aunties appeared in these "super extra" traditional Chinese outfits

Just look at those enormous headpieces and super ornamented costumes! The makeup for the uncles were also super on point. ;D

And we love these slick and modern dance moves

Uncles and aunties, this is how it's done lah!

But of course, no Watsons CNY video would be complete without its iconic 'Ban Leng Leng' song featuring all the characters
