Golden Melody Awards: Jolin Tsai misses out on coveted Best Music Video award as Ice Hockey band wins

The 37th Golden Melody Awards ceremony, held at the Taipei Arena, saw the band Ice Hockey secure the coveted Best Music Video award for their work on "Dumplings." The win came as a disappointment to Taiwanese superstar Jolin Tsai, who was nominated in the same category and had expressed a strong desire to win.

“

Thank you to Ice Hockey for creating this song, thank you to everyone on the MV team. It's fun to make films, support fun ideas, always support my family, I love you wife.

Director Ray Huang, who helmed the music video for Ice Hockey's "Dumplings," accepted the award on stage. He expressed his gratitude to the band for creating the song and thanked the entire MV team. Huang emphasized the joy of filmmaking and his support for innovative concepts, dedicating the award to his family and wife.

Jolin Tsai, considered a major contender at this year's awards, received two nominations in the Best Music Video category for her songs "Pleasure" and "Fish Love" from her album "Pleasure." She had previously stated her hope that her director would win the award, having been nominated multiple times in the past without securing the win herself.

Music videos are a great medium for opening up imagination.

Despite her strong nominations and expressed wishes, Tsai ultimately missed out on the award, marking another year without a Golden Melody for Best Music Video. The ceremony celebrated achievements in the Taiwanese music industry, with various artists and creators recognized for their contributions.

Best Music Video award, I should get one, right? I've been nominated many times before without winning, this time I hope the director can win!
