A: Several Japanese and South Korean acts, such as BigBang, are participating in this year’s Coachella Music Festival. Have any Mando-pop singers ever performed at Coachella?
B: Yup, K-pop group GOT7’s Hong Kong member Jackson Wang, and Taiwanese band Sunset Rollercoaster, which primarily performs in English, attended the festival before.
A: It’s a pity that we didn’t fly to Coachella. But in fact, Taipei has also gradually become an Asian music hub in recent years.

A: And the “King of Mando-pop” Jay Chou is releasing his new album “Children of the Sun” today. His upcoming concerts will surely draw countless fans from across the world.
A: 今年BigBang等日韓藝人將在「科切拉音樂節」開唱，有華語歌手曾登上科切拉嗎？
