Renowned singer and music producer Yuan Weiren has passed away at the age of 57.
In a heartfelt statement, his family announced: "We will bring him back to Taipei to be buried alongside our father in a familiar place surrounded by mountains and water. Fortunately, he left behind numerous songs that we can listen to whenever we miss him — while driving, feeling sad, or seeking peace. He is everywhere."
Yuan was a celebrated musical genius, known for composing many iconic songs, including hits for Na Ying and Faye Wong such as "Conquer", "No Regrets", and "Just Like A Dream."
In 2018, Yuan suffered a severe head injury after a fall, which resulted in a brain hemorrhage and stroke. He had been recovering at home since then.
However, in 2020, he reportedly fell again at home, suffering another head injury that left him in a coma and subsequently placed in intensive care. Doctors later diagnosed him as being in a vegetative state due to brain damage.
