Director Yan Yiwen attends Mayday concert; Ashin personally invites collaboration

(Central News Agency reporter Hung Su-chin, Taipei, 14th) — On the 13th, Mayday concluded the final show of their 5525+2 'Back to That Day' 25th-anniversary tour. Director Yan Yiwen and actress Hsieh Ying-hsuan attended. Ashin personally came down from stage to interact and proposed collaboration, saying, 'Next time, just find us.' Monster added with a joke, 'You're openly stealing work! It's a joke, but better remember it,' making the entire audience burst into laughter.

Due to Typhoon Bavi disrupting the schedule, Mayday performed three concerts in just one and a half days, totaling 13 hours. Originally scheduled for the 10th at Taipei Dome, the concert was postponed to the 13th due to the typhoon. After a 'farewell concert' on the 12th, they 'returned' to the stage on the 13th, creating another unforgettable memory with a 45,000-person group sing-along. According to the press release, Guan You couldn't hold back his emotions and shed tears: 'When I arrived at the venue today, even though it's the fifth show, a feeling of reluctance welled up.' Beside him, Monster joked, 'Let's cheer Guan You on properly — money will still go into the account.'

Other band members gathered around Guan You to give him the strongest encouragement. Guan You held back his tears and said bravely, 'Backstage, we thought we'd be happy after finishing this concert and could rest for a while. But once on stage, I felt reluctant. I just hope every song and every melody we sang with you today stays in your heart. Let's meet again in the near future.'

Meanwhile, the band Universe, recently popularized by the drama 'The Wedding I Owe You,' served as the opening act for Mayday's concert. Coincidentally, the drama's director Yan Yiwen, along with actors Hsieh Ying-hsuan, Wang Yu-hsuan, and Pei Tzu-chi, also attended. Ashin interacted with Yan Yiwen off-stage, and Yan said, 'Thank you — Universe created wonderful music for this drama.'

Ashin immediately recommended himself: 'No need to thank Universe — next time, just come to us directly.' Monster said, 'Openly stealing work! Though it's a joke, better remember it,' instantly making the entire audience laugh. (Editor: Li Shu-hua) 1150714
