Taiwanese singer and actor Show Lo Chih-hsiang has made a remarkable comeback, but not in his well-known role as an iconic singer-actor. Instead, in an unexpected twist, he has emerged in Thailand as a woman.

Lo, whose flourishing career was halted in 2020 after his ex-girlfriend accused him of persistent infidelity, has now reappeared publicly as his female alter ego, Zhu Bishi.

This female persona was created by him during a mainland Chinese variety show in 2016. Today, Zhu’s public appearances are primarily limited to venues outside mainland China, despite her previous immense popularity there before the scandal.

Zhu quickly became a sensation, leading Lo to question on social media: “Why is she more popular than me?”

The 45-year-old star had vanished from the public eye after his ex-girlfriend, Zhou Yangqing, publicly revealed his infidelities.
