Taiwanese singer, actor, and television presenter, Alien Huang, also known as Xiao Gui to many fans, passed away yesterday (16/9) at the age of 36.

He was known for hosting variety show "100% Entertainment" with Show Lo, as well as being the founder and designer of his own fashion label, AES (Alien Evolution Studio).

As an established singer-songwriter, he had a notable discography during his 18-year career - including his last album, HUMAN, which was released in 2018. Earlier this year, he shared his new single,  '我不是空笑梦'.

Most fans of Mandopop would also be familiar with his 2012 duet 'Melody of Love' with Genie Chuo.

Friends of the late singer shared their thoughts on his passing via their social media pages.
