Taiwanese entertainer "Blackie" Lin Yu-shun recently hosted a lavish return banquet for his daughter, Lin Pei-yi, featuring over 200 tables, a large LED stage, professional sound and lighting, and a fireworks display, resembling a major outdoor concert.

Thank you for using 'Blackie-style romance' to complete such an important day for your daughter. Happy Father's Day, Dad.

She shared on Father's Day that many friends didn't even know "Blackie" was her father due to her quiet nature. The elaborate banquet, which saw her father personally call guests and work tirelessly before the event, was his way of investing his life's accumulated goodwill, capabilities, and resources into making her day special.

After the wedding truly ended, I think I slowly understood this was his way of loving me.
