Tzuyu released her debut extended play (EP), Aboutzu, on September 6, 2024. Its lead single, "Run Away", became her first number-one single on the BillboardTaiwan Songs chart.
Tzuyu was born on June 14, 1999, in the East District of Tainan, Taiwan.[4][5][6] She started dancing from a young age and trained at a dance academy.[7]
In 2012, Tzuyu was discovered by talent scouts at the Muse Performing Arts Workshop in Tainan, and moved to South Korea in November of that year to begin training.[6][8] In 2015, Tzuyu participated in the South Korean reality television show Sixteen, created by JYP Entertainment and co-produced by Mnet.[1][9] As one of nine successful participants, she went on to join the newly formed girl group Twice.[1]
In October 2015, Tzuyu officially debuted as a member of Twice with the release of their first extended play, The Story Begins.[10] Its lead single "Like Ooh-Ahh" was the first K-pop debut song to reach 100 million views on YouTube.[11] Since then, she has worked as a presenter on multiple South Korean music television shows.[12] As a soloist, Tzuyu released covers of "Me!" by Taylor Swift and "Christmas Without You" by Ava Max as part of the Melody Project series.[13][14]
On August 2, 2024, JYP Entertainment announced that Tzuyu would be making her solo debut with the release of her debut extended play, Aboutzu, on September 6.[15]

Public image and influence
Public image
Tzuyu has received widespread attention for her beauty since her debut with Twice,[1][12][26][27] and was nicknamed "Light of Taiwan"[A] by the Taiwanese media due to her popularity.[29][30][31][32]
Influence
After the flag controversy in 2016, Tzuyu was credited with increasing Taiwanese votes by up to 1-2% in favor of President Tsai Ing-wen.[33][34] According to Gallup Korea's annual music survey, Tzuyu was the third most popular idol among South Koreans in 2016.[35] She ranked ninth in the 2017 survey[36] and twelfth in 2018.[37] In 2019, Tzuyu was ranked as the second most popular female K-pop idol in a survey of soldiers completing mandatory military service in South Korea.[38] In 2023, Tzuyu surpassed Jay Chou and became the most followed Taiwanese celebrity on Instagram with over 10 million followers.[39]
Personal life
In 2016, she passed an exam at Tainan Municipal Fusing Junior High School to certify her middle school education. She attended high school at Hanlim Multi Art School in South Korea, and graduated in February 2019 along with bandmate Chaeyoung.[40][41][42][43][44]
Flag controversy
In November 2015, Tzuyu appeared with bandmates Sana, Momo, and Mina on the Korean variety showMy Little Television. She introduced herself as Taiwanese and held the flag of the Republic of China (Taiwan) alongside that of South Korea.[45]Mainland Chinese internet users reacted angrily towards Tzuyu's actions due to the political rift between the two countries.[46] Soon after, Twice was barred from Chinese television[47] and Tzuyu was pulled out of her endorsement with Chinese communications company Huawei.[48] Meanwhile, her agency, JYP Entertainment, released a video showing Tzuyu reading an apology, which said in part:
There is only one China, the two sides of the strait are one, and I have always felt proud to be Chinese. I feel extremely apologetic to my company and to Internet friends on both sides of the strait for the hurt that I have caused, and I also feel very guilty.[49]
Tzuyu's apology sparked a furor among the Taiwanese public on election day.[50][51] The incident gained international attention, as it was believed to have affected the 2016 Taiwanese general election.[49][34] A survey found that Tzuyu's video apology affected the decision of about 1.34 million young voters.[52]
In response to criticism, JYP Entertainment announced that it would be adopting new procedures concerning its exports and overseas activities in order to protect employees from future controversies. This included the implementation of cultural sensitivity training for its artists and staff members. In an interview with The Korea Times, a JYP representative stated that the training would include issues pertaining to political conflicts between countries.[53]
