Veteran singer Wu Xue-fen is enduring the summer heat by foregoing air conditioning for the past three years, a decision driven by her need to save money. Wu revealed that the broken air conditioner at her home has not been repaired due to the cost of both the repair and the electricity. She relies on two ceiling fans and a regular fan to stay cool, admitting it is "of course hot" but manageable as she lives alone. To cope with the heat, she keeps her curtains drawn and wears only underwear. Wu humorously noted that the lack of air conditioning has led her to do daily chest-expanding exercises in front of a mirror, resulting in an unexpected increase in her bust size from A to C cups. This practice, she believes, has contributed to her physical fitness. Wu, who was a popular "jade girl" singer in her youth and also acted, stepped away from the entertainment industry after marrying. She decided to return after her antique dealer husband passed away from cancer, having spent her savings on his decade-long illness. Now facing financial difficulties with slow antique sales and few acting or singing opportunities, her monthly income is less than NT$10,000. Despite these challenges, Wu continues to write music, sharing her latest song "Love Deserter." She recently performed 10 songs on the TV show "Tian Tian Ge Xing Xiu," receiving positive feedback that boosted her confidence to continue singing regardless of whether she secures a record deal.
Of course it's hot!
