A new song written and composed by Eric Chou 周興哲 for the start of 2021. This is a duet with the up-and-coming young Chinese singer, Shan Yichun 單依純, who incidentally is participating in the second season of The Treasured Voice 天賜的聲音 currently.

The Treasured Voice 2 《天賜的聲音》第二季
Season 2 of The Treasured Voice 天賜的聲音 started airing on January 15, 2021 with Tiger Hu 胡彥斌, Angela Chang 張韶涵, David Tao 陶喆 and Cannon Hu 胡海泉 as this season’s music partners. Jeff Chang 張信哲 was on the schedule as one of the main partners this season, but so far he has been absent, so I hope Jeff may come on in later episodes. After watching a few episodes of Season 1 last year, I’m still very confused with the concept of the show, LOL… Apparently it is to find a duo with a golden song at the end, but since they are just singing familiar popular old songs, what’s the meaning of “golden” song? But what the heck, I won’t waste time thinking, just sit back and enjoy some of the songs in each episode whatever the concept of the show is!

Lovely Writer (數到十就親親你) is a new Thai BL series which will premiere on February 24, 2021. The Thai name of the series, นับสิบจะจูบ, actually means Dozens of Kisses, so you can see where the lyrics of the theme song came from… This show looks like a fun TV series from the trailer, so I’m looking forward to it!
