Tradicionalno umjetnost dengbejisanja izvode muškarci navečer, tokom šest ili sedam [zimskih] mjeseci, kada se mnogo ne izlazi, i kada se pričaju bajke i dengbeji," kaže Sayan.
Generally, men perform the art of dengbejing in the evening when the people do not go out much for six or seven months [in the winter] and when fairy tales and dengbejs are told," Sayan said.
