How it's used
This term functions as a niche internet slang pun that merges the name of the triad society 新義安 with the legendary rock band Beyond. It is primarily used in online forums or among friends to mock or reference local pop culture and triad stereotypes simultaneously. Because it relies on specific knowledge of both entities, it is rarely used in formal or professional settings.
