"Thank you, Asian Hall of Fame, for this incredible honor. I'm deeply grateful to be part of a community that continues to inspire the world through its strength and creativity.
I've learned that the greatest risk in life is not taking any risk.
Every step forward, no matter how uncertain, brings us closer to our purpose.
And now... a new chapter begins. Something I've been building quietly, with everything I have, including releasing my own album. I can't wait to share what's coming next.
I lost my father, I lost my mother, and I lost three of my band members. That pain will always stay with me, but l've been blessed with amazing fans and friends who give me the strength to keep moving forward. I can't thank them enough.
I'll keep going for them.
Before I go, I will play one song. Imagine the rain falling from the sky, washing away all your pain and all your sadness. This song is for you, and for everyone I love.
I'll play a song called "Endless Rain.
