She became widely known through the 2019 audition show The Jungle Voice, where she challenged the eventual champion, Yo Ting Lee, though she did not win.
Motivated by a desire to promote Hakka culture, she sings in the Hakka language rather than standard Mandarin.
Her soothing melodies and warm vocals are truly wonderful.
If you enjoy a stylish vibe or acoustic sounds, be sure to check her out!
Not afraidChō Shōkan (Anjera Chan)

Angela, who wears many hats as an actress, singer, and entrepreneur.
The title of this song in Japanese would be “Do Not Fear.” It’s a track that encourages everyone with a dream.
The powerful music video, featuring her singing atop rocks jutting out over the sea, is overflowing with energy and truly feels uplifting just to watch!
I only care about youŌ Wakarin (Joanna Wong)

Joanna Wang, who debuted in 2008, is a female singer-songwriter raised in the United States.
She is proficient in languages and has performed numerous cover songs in both Chinese and English.
Her jazz and bossa nova-style arrangements are outstanding covers.
She is also an artist who works across a wide range of genres, including gothic rock.
torment; suffering; agonyRi Ka Bi

A singer from Malaysia who won a popular Taiwanese audition show and debuted.
This song is notorious: its full-version music video was reportedly so grotesque that it was removed from YouTube.
From the languid husky tone at the start to the soaring ultra-high notes in the chorus, the dynamic range of the vocals is outstanding.
This is love.Oushin-rin

She is an idol singer who built her popularity with a unique style, such as dancing in cosplay outfits like Japanese high school girl uniforms, military uniforms, and flight attendant attire.
Thanks to her quintessentially idol-like looks and sweet singing voice, she has nicknames written as “甜蜜教主” and “甜心教主,” which mean something like “Honey Priestess” and “Sweet Priestess.” This song is a gentle love ballad, and a notable point in the music video is her co-starring with Dean Fujioka, who became a breakout star in Japan via a reverse import boom after appearing in an NHK morning drama.
I am a little bird.Ding-dong

Della, originally from mainland China and now active in Taiwan.
This song, which begins with her self-introduction, centers on the hardships and pain of pursuing a dream, mirroring her own journey: she started flying from place to place at 18 to become a singer and it took ten years before she finally blossomed.
Keeping that background in mind makes her powerful vocals all the more moving.
