It would be following along.
The first clip. We may walk or run along at the same direction. When he stops, we use our body or shoulder to kao. Get close and not away.
The second clip. We may walk or run in circle, too. Or just sit down and use our body weight downward to neutralize his circular or horizontal jin downward.
etc etc
- Your solution (run along at the same direction) for the 1st clip may end like this:
If your opponent wants to follow you, you can help him to follow you a bit more.

- Your solution (sit down and use our body weight downward) for the 2nd clip may end like this:
If your opponent wants to sit down, you can help him to sit down a bit more.

Both yielding and resistence are not good solutions. the best solution is to take your offense back and reverse your opponent's pulling into your pushing.

YouKnowWho,
Thanks for pointing out the detail of the grabbing techniques. It is not easy to tell much from watching the videos at a computer.
IMHO, either way of resisting or yielding might work. If I am quick enough to response, and that is my balance has not been dragged off yet, I can lean away from the opponent's pull. Thus my centre of gravity will be shifted to my back leg, so my front leg can kick out right away at about the same time. If my balance is already off caused by the opponent's pull, then I will borrow his force and add my force to quickly ram into him with my elbow and shoulder. Take caution in avoiding his free hand in getting me.
P.S. I find that the grabbing techniques do not serve much purpose other than defense purpose in preventing the opponent from attacking me by dragging him off balance from time to time.
