Rujie Performs at Taiwan Mother's Day Event Following 2025 Japan-Taiwan Exchange

Singer Rujie performed two songs at the "Xiaoqin Concert" in New Taipei City, Taiwan on May 9, 2026. The appearance grew out of a Japan-Taiwan cultural exchange event in Tokyo in November 2025. Rujie sang Kiroro's "Mirai e" and "Upon This Rock" at the Mother's Day concert.

Singer Rujie took the stage at the "Xiaoqin Concert" in New Taipei City, Taiwan on May 9, 2026, a Mother's Day cultural event organized by the New Taipei City Government. Rujie performed two songs: Kiroro's "Mirai e" and the gospel-rooted "Upon This Rock."

The appearance was not a direct overseas booking but grew out of a November 2025 exchange event called "BORDELESS SHIBUYA," organized by the HUG foundation. That event brought Taiwanese members to Japan, and Taiwanese artist Jin Zhiyao, who accepted the invitation to attend, later helped facilitate Rujie's invitation to Taiwan. Rujie describes her music as "Borderless Music," crossing language, genre, and national boundaries. She is also the president of her management company, R2.
