Jessie Chung's Son Shows Support at Taiwan Launching Show

Princess of Rock Jessie Chung comes to Taipei Ximending to promote her new album Be Strong, appearing on stage with a sexy black and white outfit. Her adopted son Jeffrey also shows up with a bunch of carnations for her.

Jessie Chung’s 20-year-old son Jeffrey shows up to everyone’s amazement, holding a bunch of carnations and shouting, “Mom I love you!” The moment created a delightful surprise for Jessie. She smilingly said, “When I adopted him from my sister, he was only three years old. Time flies, now he’s already grown into a nice young man. My son is my number one fan, he fell in love with singing at the age of seven. Right now, he is studying nutrition, and has a lot of interest in song writing.” 

When asked about whether she is opposed to her son entering into the entertainment industry, Jessie Chung revealed that she is somewhat of a strict “tiger mom”, and puts a lot of emphasis on education. She stated that it’s good to love music, but education must be in priority, and that when she and her husband discovered that their son had a girlfriend, they both thought that they were too young to be dating, and told him to focus on education. Gratefully, Jessie Chung said, “Jeffrey is the best gift God gave to me”.

The launching show opens to a drowning wave of screams, Jessie Chung’s robust and impressive voice, coupled with the sensual choreographic interactions with her dancers, further incurred screams and shouts from the crowd. Jessie Chung performed her party-ready anthem “Forever Young” and the first single on her album of the same name, “Be Strong”. The two songs immediately set her fans on fire.

Jessie’s husband also appeared that day to show his support. In the crowd, two grandmas stood out as they danced energetically to the rhythm. As a doctor and oncologist, Jessie Chung expressed on stage that she hopes that cancer patients and victims of cyber-bullying can stand up and be strong through her songs. She believes that “those who stand up immediately after falling are the strongest”.

Though spraining her ankle the day before her launching show, Jessie Chung performed her songs “Love is Coming Home”, “I Don’t Care”, and “Feel My Love” in spite of the injury. She will be having her wedding ceremony in September.
