Ashin, the lead singer of the Taiwanese band Mayday, was under investigation by Chinese authorities on suspicion of lip-syncing. He has proven his innocence and shared his feelings on the matter.
On the 23rd, the 8world reported that Ashin expressed his feelings regarding the lip-syncing investigation for the first time during Mayday’s 25th-anniversary concert, Back To That Day.
Ashin broke his silence at a recent concert, saying, “I’m okay.” He calmly stated, “There are many people who struggle. Who hasn’t experienced doubt and disappointment?”
Ashin apologized for causing worry, saying, “I was anxious and restless, not for a short period, but for about five months. I even wished someone would come down from the sky and restore justice.” He added, “Every time I logged onto social media, many people gave me courage. On the contrary, I wanted to be the one to give you courage. I’m okay.”
Ashin continued, “I know you’ve fought hard for Mayday. Thank you. We may not be family by blood, but I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life. I will continue to work hard for you all,” expressing his gratitude to fans who supported Mayday despite the lip-syncing controversy.
For about five months, from December last year, Mayday was under investigation by Chinese authorities for allegedly lip-syncing at concerts in China. China strictly prohibits performers from lip-syncing. The Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism investigated and recently acknowledged Mayday’s live performance.
Meanwhile, Mayday, who has proven their innocence from lip-syncing allegations, is scheduled to hold 10 concerts in Beijing, China, from the 18th of last month to June 1st, celebrating their 25th debut anniversary.
