Controversy over Inviting Wang Leehom to Sing in Honor of CoCo at Golden Melody Awards; Cultural Figure Criticizes Selection and Mocks Cultural Ministry for Lack of Oversight

Reported 7 months ago

In preparation for the 35th Golden Melody Awards on June 29 at Taipei Arena, singer Wang Leehom is slated to perform in honor of the late CoCo. However, criticism arose from DPP Taipei Councilor Hsu Shu-hua over Leehom's controversial past remarks and actions, questioning his suitability. Media veteran Zhou Yukou also criticized this decision, calling out the Ministry of Culture for lacking oversight, and humorously suggesting a collaboration of artists like Show Lo, Jam Hsiao, Mayday, Ouyang Nana, Rainie Yang to sing an impromptu song that mocks 'bad men and women' and the need to 'forgive those who betray their families and country'. The public also expressed disappointment and disbelief over this selection debacle.
