Taiwan female group S.H.E specially opened their own radio station to promote their new album ‘FM S.H.E’ and invited their friends in the entertainment circle to talk. Last Friday they interviewed Cai Kang Yong, when Cai Kang Yong said that the most popular female group now in the Mandarin industry is Twins, S.H.E immediately asked, “Aren’t they not around already?” After this was said, it immediately got angry response from Twins’ fans, all of them rushed to the forum and scolded S.H.E and they even want S.H.E do make a public apology.

S.H.E own station which on 23 September will invite their friends in the entertainment circle to accept their interview. During the program on 3 October, S.H.E invited entertainment program host Cai Kang Yong to be their special guest. When S.H.E asked Cai Kang Yong who is the most popular female group now in the Mandarin industry, he was not able to answer at the moment, then S.H.E warned Cai Kang Yong to think carefully before answering the question, in the end Cai Kang Yong answered Twins. After S.H.E heard the answer, member Selina asked, “They are not around already right?” In front of all listeners they said that Twins had already disbanded and can only cherish the memory of them. This part of sensitive interview was immediately spread on the internet, hence many of Twins fans immediately supported their idol in the forum, someone even scolded S.H.E for saying things openly without thinking of the consequences and even want them to apologize for saying the wrong things.

As the two dancing female groups S.H.E and Twins were always being compared by the media, hence when S.H.E mentioned about their competitor Twins in their territory the topic naturally became sensitive, especially when words like ‘not around’, ‘disband’ were mentioned, because Twins have not officially announced that they have disband hence fans will naturally be more agitated. Recently the scolding of S.H.E by Twins fans were getting rough, the words they said were overboard. Someone said that S.H.E has no looks and brains, take innocence as cute, only know how to chit-chat when they on the microphone, their speech has no quality. The blunder S.H.E has made this time has obviously made Twins fans very furious.

With regards to this incident, S.H.E has made replies yesterday through their company and explained that they had saw reports from the media previously which said that Twins had disbanded. If there is no such incident, they hope to see new works by Twins soon.

Huo Han Xi (Mani) said that S.H.E are little kids, and should not be blamed for things that they do not know, don’t need the other party to apologize. She strongly emphasized that Twins is a type of spirit, forever will not disband, outsiders don’t understand this meaning, can’t blame them.
