Lest you’re not aware, the Taiwan #MeToo movement gained traction last year, sparked in part by a scene in the Netflix show Wave Makers depicting sexual harassment of a female aide, which encouraged more real-life victims to speak out.

While it involved other powerful men, celebrities who were embroiled in it made the headlines, with popular hosts like Mickey Huang and Nono leaving the industry after they were implicated.

One of them is Blackie Chen, a former basketball player and TV host who stepped down as CEO of a basketball league after being accused of sexual harassment by singer Tina Chou and actress Yuan Kuo.

Chen has denied the sexual misconduct allegations against him, and filed a lawsuit against Chou, but later filed a criminal complaint against her instead.

His wife, Christine Fan, has stood behind him.

One year later, she’s still standing behind him.

On 21 June 2024, she publicly praised Blackie Chen for his courage in facing the backlash and “hatred” against him.

She said in a social media post after the P. League+ final, which was founded by Chen: “Thank you, big baby, for persevering through all the obstacles for four years and devoting so much time and effort to Taiwanese basketball.

“I hope River and Ryan can be like their father when they grow up, being able to move forward bravely with firm belief and the courage to face hatred in whatever they do.”

There is, however, no mention of the allegations.

Concert Cancelled Last Year Due to Allegations

Last year, Fan has cancelled her “Between Us” concert that was scheduled for 8 September 2023 at the Taipei Music Center. This cancellation comes in the wake of sexual harassment allegations against her husband.

Organizers announced the cancellation of Fan’s concert on 7 July 2023, and ticket sales had started in May, in which around 80% of tickets, worth an estimated NT$10 million (US$431,000), had already been sold.

Over in TikTok, there’s a drama involving property agents that’s caused by us. Here’s what happened:
