Joke Explanations:
In the video, Firefly makes a pun about summer and says that “no matter what you say to it, it will always respond with ‘I know, I know'” – these words in Chinese sound like Cicadas.
After that, she follows it up with “I think it got even colder…” – In Chinese, a bad pun is called “冷笑话” which directly translates to “A cold joke”, hence the reason she says it’s gotten even colder.
Misinformation from the internet:
’20 stars’ does not mean “I love you” in Chinese slang – You would have to stretch the meaning extremely hard for this to even make even a little sense. It is ‘520’ that means “I love you”.

Original Title:
Midnight Train Carriage | Communication across the Sea of Stars
Original Description:
Oh, long time no see, I’m Firefly
I called you earlier but you didn’t pick up, are you busy?
These days the interstellar phone lines have been available and the Hyper-Distant delivery system reached your location so I thought I’d give you a call.
