Celebrity couple shares stroke recovery at welfare foundation event

2025-09-02

Actor Nadow Lin suffered a sudden stroke in 2022. His girlfriend at the time, Yi Yi, was able to get him to the hospital in the golden window for care, saving his life. They recently attended an event held by the Genesis Social Welfare Foundation to share the story of Lin’s recovery. They held a wedding banquet in May and have been relishing the honeymoon phase ever since. Yi Yi even revealed their progress toward starting a family.

Yi Yi
Actress
I hope you can stay healthy forever and stay with me every day.

Nadow
Actor
Wherever you want to go, whatever you want to do, I’ll always be by your side.

It’s clear from how they look at each other that celebrity couple Nadow and Yi Yi cherish one another. That’s because they fought hard for their happiness.

Yi Yi
Actress
Before your stroke, you thought you just had a hangover. At the time he said he had a headache, so I said he should take some pain meds and sleep a little more before heading to work. But when he said something, it was a little muddled. It was a bit like he was hungover, but I found it strange.

In 2022, Nadow suffered a cerebral hemorrhage. Luckily, his then-girlfriend Yi Yi was there and got him to the hospital during the crucial golden window for treatment, saving his life.

Yi Yi
Actress
Before he didn’t sleep much at all, just two hours a day. But now, he can sleep for 12 hours. He really is healthier than most people now. He lifts weights twice or three times a week and does yoga to stretch.

Apart from keeping to an early schedule, Nadow also exercises daily. Whenever he isn’t working, he’ll exercise for even longer to stay healthy. Married life is treating them both well. Nadow even let slip that they want three kids.

After saying they want to have three little girls, Yi Yi shyly said she’s already started preparing and hopes to have good news soon.

Former KMT Chair Hung Hsiu-chu in Beijing to attend military parade

Former KMT Chair Hung Hsiu-chu has arrived in Beijing for a highly controversial trip, to attend a Chinese military parade on Sept. 3. Hung has attempted to justify her presence, saying that the ROC only exists today thanks to the cooperation between the Chinese Communist Party and the KMT. The KMT has further tried to defend the trip, calling the military parade a form of peaceful cross-strait exchanges. As expected, the DPP has slammed the visit, saying the weapons that will be on show are meant to threaten the people of Taiwan. The Mainland Affairs Council says Hung could face legal consequences if she were to assist in Chinese political propaganda. Let’s hear more.

Voice of Ho Ying-lu
KMT Central Standing Committee
I’m already here. Taking part in this event is a form of peaceful cross strait exchanges. We’re family after all, right?

Wang Ting-yu
Lawmaker (DPP)
The People’s Liberation Army uses those very weapons to threaten our people. Yet you’re going over there and condoning this military parade that’s meant as a threat to Taiwan’s 23 million people. What a stab in the back for Taiwan.

Lai Jui-lung
Lawmaker (DPP)
Ten years ago, when Hung Hsiu-chu was running for president, she vehemently opposed Lien Chan’s participation in the Sept. 3 military parade. But 10 years later, she herself is going to attend. What a hypocrite. It’s a slap in the face to the KMT and Eric Chu.

Shen Yu-chung
Mainland Affairs Council
Endorsing China’s calls to eliminate the ROC’s sovereignty, crossing the red line and advocating for the use of force to resolve political issues, saying things like “Taiwan is just a province,” or “the ROC doesn’t exist,” taking part in military exercises like the Joint Sword 2024. All these are actions that clearly align with the CCP’s agenda for collaboration between the military, government and politicians.

The Mainland Affairs Council says that the rules apply to everyone, not just people holding public office. Anyone who cooperates with Beijing to spread pro-unification or military propaganda will face investigation and potentially sanctioned. Every case will be evaluated independently to determine whether Taiwan’s national interests have been harmed.

Olympian Lin Yu-ting releases memoir about overcoming adversity

Lin Yu-ting became the first Taiwanese to win Olympic gold for boxing last year in Paris. She also became the target of much online abuse regarding her eligibility to compete in the event. Critics claimed that she was transgender or that she was actually a man, based on her appearance. She’s now written a memoir describing her life, from childhood onwards. At her book launch, she became tearful and emotional at the mention of her beloved coach Tseng Tzu-chiang, who said that Lin’s success was owing to hard work and didn’t happen miraculously.

Lin Yu-ting became the first Taiwanese boxer to win gold at the Olympics in Paris last year. She also had to deal with online abuse over questions about her gender. Now she’s written a book about all her experiences.

Lin Yu-ting
Olympic gold medalist
Looking back at that time now, I think: Wow! It really wasn’t easy for me to persevere and go forward to where I am today. Whether it is the pain from training, or the lows I experienced, I want to use these stories and share them with everyone.

At the launch of her new book, Lin thanked herself for not giving up along the way. When she talked about her coach, Tseng Tzu-chiang, her eyes inadvertently filled with tears.

Lin Yu-ting
Olympic gold medalist
Look at how much effort my coach has put in to train me and get me on the world stage, whether it’s sponsorship, training me or even low-key asking people for resources, I’ve seen it all.

Behind Lin’s gold medal were not just tactics and psychological struggles, but also her coach’s unwavering trust. Tseng also said Lin wasn’t just relying on miracles to reach the position she has.

Tseng Tzu-chiang
Lin Yu-ting’s coach
Her hard work earned her a perfect 5-0 record in her four matches at the Olympics, where she won a gold medal.

Overcoming her opponents and also overcoming gossip, lies and slander, Lin’s book is not just about winning Olympic gold, but also about her realization that she should never give up on her goals, no matter how painful the setback.

Vehicles must make 90-degree turns at newly paved Taichung intersection

The contractor for a road resurfacing project at the intersection of Beishi East and Yingcai roads in Taichung’s Shalu District seems to have taken some artistic license when painting the road shoulder lines. These red and white lines were painted at nearly 90 degrees at the corners of the intersection, which means that vehicles turning right have to turn at nearly a right angle to avoid illegally crossing the red line. Residents have been complaining nonstop about this ridiculous design.

This is not normal. It’s hilarious.

It’s ridiculous, really ridiculous.

Let’s take a look at this newly paved intersection to see what’s leaving people so flabbergasted.

These vehicles seem to smoothly make their right turn, but in fact all their right-side wheels go over the red and white lines indicating the road shoulder. It’s not that drivers don’t want to follow the rules, but the lines were painted at such a sharp angle that cars have to turn at nearly 90 degrees.

Drives over the lines
It’s almost 90 degrees. I just drive like I used to, and go over the lines a bit.

This intersection in Taichung’s Shalu District recently underwent a reconstruction project that reduced the number of lanes to add sidewalks, making it more pedestrian-friendly. But the road shoulder lines were drawn in such a way that cars have to turn at a right angle, or else their wheels illegally cross the red line.

Finds lines inconvenient
You might cross the lines when turning, which is inconvenient for driving.

Voice of Chang Chun-ting
Taichung maintenance office
Any parts where the contractor failed to follow the design plans will be reviewed in accordance with the contract. The contractor and supervisor could both be fined for negligence.

At other intersections, the road shoulder lines bend in an arc so that vehicles can turn smoothly, unlike the 90-degree turn here. The Taichung City Government said it has already asked the contractor to fix this problem.

Water birds rival Formosan rock macaques as fiercest campus residents

National Sun Yat-sen University in Kaohsiung is well known for being the home of Formosan rock macaques. But it seems like there’s another animal king in the country. Enter National Chung Hsing University’s water birds. Recently, a video showing a black swan grabbing a graduating student’s diploma from the Taichung university went viral online. On orientation day, incoming students were also delighted by sightings of the creatures, though they could be aggressive. It’s because they’re highly territorial, but they won’t budge if you leave them alone.

The black swan stretches its neck toward the man and keeps pecking him. It seems to not want to leave him alone.

It seems like the swans don’t just target humans, but also their possessions.

The swans at National Chung Hsing University recently went viral online after they went after someone’s diploma. Some say they could even rival National Sun Yat-sen University’s infamous Formosan rock macaques.

First-year student
National Chung Hsing University
Their macaques are quite well-known. We at Chung Hsing have water birds too. They’re quite distracting. We’re supposed to check in at the library because it’s field day, but we can’t help but stop and take pictures of them.

There’s even a section in the orientation camp counselor’s booklet with suggestions of how to respond if a water bird won’t leave a student alone, as well as what to do if a student starts chasing or handling a water bird.

The sections concerning the water birds in the booklet also attracted many netizens.

Councilor
Orientation camp
It’s only an inside joke, but it’s also there so we remember to remind freshmen that the water birds can turn a little aggressive if it believes you’ve intruded their territory. But in general they’re quite docile.

First-year student
National Chung Hsing University
I find it pretty amusing to see them pop up over there. We see them on field day, it’s really delightful.

According to alumni, there are about 40 to 50 of these creatures on campus, and every student will experience being chased by them sooner or later. Meanwhile, a university official also reminded students not to intrude upon their territories.

Tu Hung-ming
NCHU Office of Student Affairs
If a water bird starts to chase after you, you must leave as quickly as you can, because it could get defensive and even prepare to strike once you’ve crossed a line. We humans should just leave the soonest possible.

Students are off to a good start just by leaving the water birds alone, delightful as they might be.

Uncertainties loom for Thai tourism amid rumors of death in royal family

Only last week, the Thai government announced that it was giving away 200,000 domestic flight tickets to international tourists traveling with six Thai airlines. But the plan was never realized following the prime minister’s removal from office. That said, a tourist agency told us in our exclusive report that there will soon be discounts for tour groups. However, with rumors that a Thailand princess may have passed away recently, prospective travelers are worried that a long national mourning period would affect their trips. Let’s find out more.

Market stalls sell wares right by the railway and visitors stroll along the tracks. This is a railway market in Thailand. Being relatively affordable but no less rich in culture, Thailand remains a top tourist destination for Taiwanese. Last week, Thailand’s tourism ministry had announced that starting on September, a total of 200,000 domestic round-trip flight tickets would be given away to international tourists traveling to the country with six Thai airline companies. But the tourist bonanza was not realized.

Chen Chien-chin
Tourist agency GM
This whole scheme died on the vine. So it seems that their tourism minister let the news out too soon. To be frank, it probably didn’t get passed in the first place.

Following Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra’s removal from office, her cabinet was also dissolved. The plan to give away free domestic flight tickets also halted as a result. However, Taiwanese tourists could still stand to benefit, because starting from October to the end of June next year, tourist agencies can receive 350,000 baht for each chartered flight with at least 80% occupancy.

Chen Chien-chin
Tourist agency GM
This is only for Taiwan, meaning subsidies for chartered flights and accommodation. In other words, if you travel to Thailand with a tourist agency, you could get a tour group discount. On average, you’ll be able to save NT$2,000 to NT$3,000. We expect the number of travelers to Thailand to increase by 15% to 20%.

While the Thai government appears to hedge resources in promoting tourism, acclaimed Scottish journalist and critic of the Thai monarchy, Andrew MacGregor Marshall noted that Princess Bajrakitiyabha, who has been in a coma since 2022, could soon be announced dead. This would restrict tourists from various activities of leisure and entertainment.

Jenny
Content creator based in Thailand
The royal family made an announcement saying that the princess’s condition is under control. But much remains unknown. Back then the national mourning for King Rama IX was one year. And in the first 30 days, in the first month, they were more stringent in restricting many entertainment and party venues, and also restrict nightlife. It’s hard to say whether these activities will all be halted, but we must stay low-key and try not to be too merry.

Although it’s still hard to say what will happen, the experience with the former king hinted that most tourist sites would still be open. However, the atmosphere in the country will certainly take on a more somber tone. Still, visitors are advised to respect local customs no matter the destination.
