It was an emotional night of tributes and songs for the late Alien Huang. After all, it was his memorial concert.
Among the many memories shared on the live broadcast, Taiwanese singer and actress Rainie Yang also briefly touched on her relationship with the actor-host prior to her performance.
It’s no secret that Rainie was devastated by Alien’s death. The duo used to date for three years in high school and they had remained close friends even though their relationship didn’t work out.
After learning of the tragedy, she wrote on her Instagram that she “won’t pretend that I’m fine and fine” because “it can never be okay or okay.”

During the commemorative concert yesterday (October 6), the 36-year-old confessed that she thought for a long time before agreeing to perform at the event.
She told the audience: “I think everyone here knows that Alien and I had a very pure love during high school. Due to his passing, people are now putting this relationship in the spotlight. In fact, not I can say a lot because I’m scared that no matter what I say, people will want to think [of it] in a specific direction.
“In this world, there are very few people who know how rare it is for romantic love to turn into friendship, family love, and kinship. So I don’t blame people who don’t understand this. Alien won’t blame you too.”
As there were no recent rumors or speculation on the internet about the nature of their relationship, it is unclear what prompted Rainie to make this speech. She is married to Chinese singer Li Ronghao.
After their performance, the concert’s TV host and emcee Jacky Wu spoke with Rainie and admitted that Alien privately told him the real reason for their split. Rainie looked confused and immediately replied that it was her decision to break up.

Jacky said that the reason Alien provided was very different from Rainie’s explanation, and stated that what Alien said must be the truth, as he had never lied to Jacky.
Without missing a beat, Rainie joked, “Wait a minute, I really knew how to lie.”
He then tried to get Jacky to reveal what Alien had said, but the host insisted that he would only tell him in private. Rainie argued that Alien was probably trying to protect her and that she is the only one who knows why they broke up.
“I think he’s trying to protect me. I think our friendship is very deep and there are people who don’t understand it and have distorted it,” he said.
