Actress Han Yu Misses Fan Meeting, Sparking 'Prima Donna' Accusations; MinTV Responds

Actress Han Yu has drawn criticism for her absence from a fan meeting for the popular Taiwanese drama "A Song and A Warmth." As a central figure in the series, her no-show at the event, described as the "only large-scale fan meeting" nationwide, disappointed many fans who had traveled specifically to attend.

This absence has fueled speculation that Han Yu is unprofessional and difficult to work with. Reports claimed that her disappearance from the event led to the cancellation of seven to eight planned social media promotional videos, forcing staff to scramble and adjust their plans, creating an awkward atmosphere.

The artist had scheduled promotional activities, and on the day of the premiere, promotional video filming and media interviews were conducted. As for the fan meeting, it was indeed due to a personal itinerary, so attendance was not possible.

However, Han Yu's agency and the production station MinTV have rushed to her defense. They clarified that Han Yu had a pre-existing personal engagement that she could not reschedule, emphasizing that her absence was not intentional. MinTV stated that she had fulfilled other promotional duties on the day, including filming promotional videos and participating in media interviews.

Comparisons have been drawn to co-star Bai Chia-chi, who also missed a street event but had clearly communicated her prior commitment to filming in Kaohsiung. This contrast has amplified the criticism against Han Yu, with some suggesting her simple explanation of "having something else to do" lacked the thoughtfulness shown by Bai Chia-chi.

Han Yu had a prior personal schedule that could not be rearranged, so she was unable to attend the fan meeting, and it was not intentional non-cooperation with promotional activities.
