Taiwanese dramas played a major role in singer/songwriter R-chord's career. After penning a slew of scores for the small screen, the Nantou native developed a knack for articulating the pains of unrequited love as well as the joys of romance. His timely execution of impassioned lyrics layered upon sumptuous musical arrangements made songs like "Gou Ai" and "Love Doesn't Need to Pretend" sensational favourites on film and radio. At times achingly melodramatic and sometimes furiously frantic, R-chord's music caters to a variety of listeners—and lovers.
