Singer Wang Leehom, known for past infidelity scandals, is invited to perform at the upcoming Golden Melody Awards organized by the Ministry of Culture, leading to criticism from media personality Weekly Kuo. Kuo mockingly suggests inviting opposition party Kuomintang legislator Gao Jinsumei to sing a pro-Xi Jinping song and receive a lifetime achievement award. Minister Li Yuan responds, acknowledging the various opinions and promising further communication with the production team and Wang Leehom's family. Amidst the controversy, the event is set for June 29 in Taipei, with protests against Wang's invitation from some, including DPP councilor Hsu Shu-hua. Kuo also suggests a performance involving other artists instead of Wang. Li Yuan assures that the Ministry is considering the feedback received and will consult with the parties involved.
