The K-pop Entertaining Music Festival is to take place at the Nangang Exhibition Center in Taipei on Sunday. The lineup for the show includes Girls’ Generation member Taeyeon, EXO member Chen, Momoland, NCT Dream and Golden Child. Among the artists, Taeyeon holds the record as the only female Korean artist staging three solo concerts in a row in Taiwan.
Lai Kuan-lin, a former member of South Korean boyband Wanna One, will also visit Taiwan this weekend. The Taiwanese hunky boy has teamed up with Korean singer Jung Woo-seok after the hit boyband broke up in January. Lai is set to hold a fan meeting at the Taipei International Convention Center on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Lai’s former bandmate Kang Daniel also hit the headlines recently for winning a contract lawsuit against LM Entertainment, which has transferred most of its rights in the contract with him to a third party without his consent. His lawyer said Kang is finally able to perform his own artistic events.

In an effort to fight phone scams, British mobile phone company O2 has introduced Daisy, an AI designed to engage phone con artists in time-wasting conversations. Daisy is portrayed as a kindly British granny, exploiting scammers’ tendency to target the elderly. Her voice, based on a real grandmother’s for authenticity, adds to her credibility in the role. “O2” has distributed several dedicated phone numbers online to direct scammers to Daisy instead of actual customers. When Daisy receives a call, she translates the scammers’ spoken words into text and then responds to them accordingly through a text-to-speech system. Remarkably, Daisy
Bilingual Story is a fictionalized account. 雙語故事部分內容純屬虛構。 Emma had reviewed 41 resumes that morning. While the ATS screened out 288 unqualified, she screened for AI slop.
