Although the four members of Taiwanese pop group Fahrenheit each had brilliant performances in movies and TV dramas in recent years, but the four shared that their favorite was still singing together as a group. Their new album [Loving More and More] will inform their fans their feelings to them.
Host (Bei): In 2006, a new musical group appeared on the Taiwanese music scene. These four sunshine boys quickly gained popularity and injected a sense of freshness, a ray of sunshine into the entertainment world. Three years later, this musical group has become more and more popular. Today, our Weekend News Club meets with these four sunshine boys. Let’s welcome this musical group from Taiwan – Fahrenheit.
Fahrenheit (F): Hello everyone, we are Fahrenheit.
Bei: Welcome, welcome.
Bei: Welcome to Singapore again. I used the term again because perhaps the four of you are no strangers to Singapore. You all have come before for promotion activities and concerts. I think I will ask individually what each of you like the best about Singapore. Let’s start with Wu Chun.
Chun: What I like the most? Since childhood, of all the places in the world, the country I have been coming most frequently is Singapore. Because it is closer and because I have many childhood memories of it! Shopping, eating, coming here is an enjoyment already.
Jiro: I like the air and the surroundings of Singapore the best. Even the most common washrooms, floor and road would be very clean. Everything is maintained very well.
Arron: If one day there is no work, coming here for Christmas would be pretty good because the holiday atmosphere here is very good, the surroundings are both beautiful and clean.
Calvin: I really like the roads being clean and neat. It is also very multicultural. There is also high rises outside. It is very international and has the feel of being in connection to the world.
Bei: We can tell what each person likes. There are both similarities and differences. This also tests the tacit understanding within a group. How do the four of them get along with each other normally?
F: By communicating with each other. After all, we came from different places. Perhaps in the beginning, tacit understanding is something that needed to be nurtured. Both tacit understanding and also stage experiences are accumulated through each performance. That made us has more tacit understanding which in turn improves our performance. We feel that it is an accumulation through performances.
Bei: Would there be some friction during the process. Because you are all boys of sunshine and would all have youthful impulses, were there friction?
F: We feel that the best thing about being guys was that if there is anything wrong, we will bring it up and talk about it. Talk it out. Turned out it was about our performances. Actually this is the advantages of being guys.
Bei: In the last one or two years, you are all busy with your own projects, be it TV dramas or movies. Normally, in your personal time, do you get together with each other?
F: This is a perception the media gave to everyone, as if the four of us had split up. However the truth is that even in our personal time, we often gathered together. When we have promotion activities individually, we would be more separated but we would still be concerned about how the others are doing. During the release of new albums, we would be together frequently for about three or four months. We are not always doing our own stuff and minding our own business in the way that was perceived by those on the outside.
Bei: OK, let’s talk about the new album. Arron had a tough time, having to hold the new album all this time. The new album is entitled [Loving You More and More]. This is an interesting title. Does it have any special meaning?
F: This third album is a beginning after the foundation is set. We hope that everyone would love us more and more. It also indicates that we love this job more and more to maintain our passion. So this name is used intentionally here. The first released song of this album could be considered a song to reciprocate our fans, sort of a song between our fans and ourselves.
Bei: You also have a charitable purpose for coming here this time – to go and visit the children in the Bishan Down’s Syndrome Training Center. I want to ask you, whenever people talk about charity, the definition of charity is different for each person. Some believes in spreading the word through slogans, some feels that charity can start with those around them. What is your definition of charity?
F: Actually doing charitable work does not necessarily mean that everyone needs to know that I am doing charity. However, we feel that as a public figure, we should be a role model. If we start participating ourselves, then those who like us, who support us would follow in our footsteps and participate as well. Seeing this, everyone else would follow suit. I feel that it would be a good thing. To be honest, it is not necessary to join a charity or a charitable organization or a foundation before something can be done. You can start with those around you.
Bei: Starting with those around you, such as your family members. You are all so busy, how do find time for your family. Take Wu Chun for example, you are so far from them.
F (Chun): Only through telephone. The number of days I can be home and see my family is less than a month within a year. Therefore each time I go back I would treasure my time with them. Because of work, I have no other choice and so I would treasure the time when I am back. I would arrange with the company that if I have three or four days off, let me know ahead of time so that I can make arrangements to go back sooner.
Bei: What about the other three?
F (Jiro): There is only me and my mother, so each time when I have to leave Taiwan, I would be very nervous. Each day, I would call her two or three times as if I am following the mealtime schedule.
F (Arron?): I hope that the time I spend with my family is very relaxing and happy because there isn’t much time as it is so I don’t want to bring home any negative emotions from work.
F (Calvin?): Last October my elder sister got married and I am the only male child left at home. Because I travelled so much, now whenever I am home, my parents would feel that they can rely on their son. I start to feel that I have a responsibility to take care of my parents. Since they placed their hopes on me, then I should be responsible.
Bei: Busy with their careers and still have to consider their family as well as doing charitable work every now and then. Today, these four boys of sunshine not only let us feel the warmth of sunshine they also let us feel the power of their love. I believe this power of love would make your singing career more and more successful. We wish you smooth sailing all the way. Thank you for accepting our interview.
F: Thank you.
