(Central News Agency, Taipei, 21st, by reporter Wang Hsin-yu) Golden Melody Award-winning singer Hsu Fu-kai will hold his "一五一拾" (Yi Wu Yi Shi) concert at the Taipei Arena on Father's Day, August 8. At a press conference today, he stated that he is worried about being reminded of his deceased father and has decided to remove songs that might trigger such emotions, as he doesn't want to bring those feelings onto the stage.
Hsu Fu-kai expressed his gratitude to his fans for spending Father's Day with him at the Taipei Arena, suggesting that perhaps it's all part of a divine plan. "Although my father passed away three years ago, I always feel that he is watching over me. I also believe that the friends who come to listen to my songs have many people they miss in their hearts. I hope that through this concert, by singing the songs selected by myself and the team, everyone can be reminded of the people they miss."
Hsu Fu-kai mentioned that his recent concerts were held on Mother's Day and he was worried that his father's fans might protest, so this time it was changed to Father's Day. As for whether he is worried about thinking of his late father during the concert, he admitted that he has already removed songs that might make him cry from the setlist. "It's a song I wrote myself from the new album. There are just too many songs, so I thought I'd just remove the one I wrote. I don't want to bring that kind of emotion onto the stage."
Hsu Fu-kai said that he is currently actively losing weight to prepare for the concert. Also, since it's an afternoon show, he, being a "night owl," is actively adjusting his body clock, wanting to emulate the queen of pop, Jolin Tsai, who goes to bed at 9:30 PM every night.
Tickets for the "一五一拾" concert will go on sale at noon on the 29th. (Editor: Kuan Chung-wei) 1150421
