Leehom Wang Makes Comeback in China

The Greater Bay Area Film Concert 2024 <灣區升明月> was just broadcast on CCTV. This marked Wang Leehom’s (王力宏) first official stage performance in China after his divorce scandal.

While many famous stars such as Xiao Zhan (肖戰), Huang Xiaoming (黃曉明), Jackie Chan (成龍), Karen Mok (莫文蔚), Tong Liya (佟麗婭), and Jackson Yee (易烊千璽) were in attendance, Leehom attracted the most attention and his popularity still appeared high. Jackie was clapping to the beat, Huang Xiaoming was taking pictures on his cell phone, and Xiao Zhan sang along as he swayed to the beat of the music.

This comeback performance was very important to Leehom. He shared many photos of the performance on social media and posted, “Thank you everyone. I am touched and will remember this forever.”

After the event, Leehom was photographed quietly taking away the name tag from his seat when no one was around. He later posted a photo of the name tag on social media. Fans said they burst into tears upon seeing it, saying Leehom relied on his own efforts to slowly climb back to the top. He had experienced many days of injustice and sadness and now he can finally leave it in the past.

Leehom took a long hiatus after his ex-wife Lee Jinglei (李靚蕾) accused him of extramarital affairs, domestic violence, and soliciting prostitutes in 2021. Although the Beijing court found no evidence pointing to any misconduct by Leehom and ruled that he did not have to pay a large compensation, the damage had been done and he needed to restart his career from scratch. Although he has held concerts in Taiwan and China, he has yet to restore his former glory and received mixed reactions from netizens who criticized his aging looks.

Previously the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards intended to commemorate the late Coco Lee (李玟) and planned to arrange for her friend Leehom to be a guest performer. However, the news caused dissatisfaction among fans of Coco, who pointed out that Leehom was surrounded by negative news and would not be suitable as a tribute guest. In the end, Leehom’s management company issued a statement stating that he would be stepping down from the opportunity.

Since Leehom’s divorce, the public has been paying close attention to his relationship status. His friend Wilber Pan (潘瑋柏) recently shared a photo of a gathering, in which a voluptuous woman was seen sitting next to Leehom. They seemed intimate with their shoulders touching and netizens are speculating on the nature of their relationship.
