In every country there are always some icons in the people’s minds. Maybe the icon is good at music, and is admired by young people. Or the icon is a very important person for the country, and everybody in the country will remember what the person did for the country. Maybe the icon is good at sports and always wins medals from all kinds of competitions. The icon in Taiwan I will mention in this essay is a famous singer of Taiwan. He’s a super idol in young people’s minds. 
Who is he? He is Jay Chou. (Chinese name is 周杰倫). He is not only a singer, but also a songwriter, a composer, a rapper, a musician, and a director. He’s also known as an actor; the movie “Secret” was direct by him, and he was the main character of this movie. I think it’s this movie made him beco
me more famous in Asia. He is good at music since he was a little boy, and the styles of his songs are hip-hop and blues. His music style is usually different from other singers; he likes to mix the music style in Eastern and Western style. It is the special thing that only belongs to him and he soon became a popular singer of Taiwan. His music talent was discovered on a TV show. At that time, he is only a songwriter and was not so famous because he hadn’t sung any songs yet. However, his good voice was found in a song named “Cute Woman” and which was recoded by him, since then, he stared his singing career.

His first movie is called “Initial D”, which was origin as a comic book from Japan. He was the main make chara
cter of this movie. In the movie, he was a boy that shy and quiet, but was very good at car racing. It was said that he was acting himself in the movie; though there was some bad critics of his first movie, he still won the best Newcomer Actor in Golden Horse Awards and Hong King Film Awards. After that, he directed his first movie “Secret” and was soon very popular in Taiwan. Furthermore, the music of this movie was all made by him. In the movie, he was a genius pianist in high school and was falling in love with a girl who was from the past. After this movie was played on the big screen in the theater, Jay Chou became a really famous singer and musician in Asia. I admired Jay Chou as a talented person, though there are still some scandals between him and many female singers, his music and compositions are really good. His music is really unique in young people’s mind, and I think his career life of music will go on and on.
