Sunshine Girls Choir' Star Man-hsi Ho Embarks on New Journey, Asks Herself 'Who Are You?'

Taiwanese actress Man-hsi Ho, the ambassador for the 2026 Taoyuan Film Festival, takes center stage in the event's newly released promotional video. Titled "Prospect," the video uses iconic Taoyuan locations, including the Dashulin flood retention basin and the Caota sand dunes, to create a visually poetic and cinematic experience.

Actors are actually the luckiest people in the crew. On the set, I saw every staff member deeply invested, working together to complete the work, fully feeling that incredible passion.

The film features Ho in a unique dialogue across time with Liu Yu-hsin, the rebellious character she portrayed in the film "Sunshine Girls Choir." This self-conversation, centered on the question "Who are you?", prompts viewers to reflect on the relationship between fictional characters and real life. The video concludes with Ho, as a "daughter of Taoyuan," returning to her hometown, symbolizing her enduring connection to cherished memories.

Visually, Ho transforms into a water nymph in the flood basin and a desert spirit on the sand dunes, a stark contrast to the lost and imprisoned Liu Yu-hsin. This juxtaposition highlights Ho's natural acting talent and the distinct personas of actor and character.

Prospect represents anticipation for the future, and it's like seeing your own life through others' stories. Looking at myself from the first character, I hope to always maintain that excitement from meeting Liu Yu-hsin.

Ho shared her deep appreciation for the film's crew, recognizing the vital role of behind-the-scenes workers. She described actors as the "luckiest people on set" due to the dedication and passion of the entire team. She also spoke about the festival's theme, "Prospect," viewing it as an anticipation of the future and a way to see oneself reflected in others' stories. Ho expressed her current happiness, stating she has found the most important thing in her life.

Every day I think about having work the next day, and I feel excited and look forward to it. I look forward to new sparks every day, and this is also my source of motivation.
