TAIPEI—"I was very touched and quite impressed," said Mr. Jing Chen after watching Divine Performance Arts's Chinese Spectacular . He is chairman of the Taiwan Ocarina Culture Interchange Association and specializes in ceramics and painting. "This show is not only about watching or listening, but indulging all your senses. I loved every program; each was unique in its own way. It was really worth the trip."

"The first program instantly grabbed my attention and deeply touched me. The performers must have worked extremely hard, and the work has really paid off in this beautiful, high-quality show. I felt that the directors and producers were also very talented, for the choreography of all the programs and the integration of music was great."

Jing Chen remarked that he has heard of Shenyun's performances in the past years, but he had always missed the show, being occupied by various events. He added that for next year, he would bring his fellow employees and family members to the show so that they could all watch it together.

Li Fengfu is an artist with a great interest in traditional Chinese culture. Having attended the last show in Taichung, he said, "This show is extraordinarily touching. When my friend invited me to come along, I expected only to appreciate a few nice dances. However, the show was much more than I expected. I was very surprised that the body language through the dances can portray good and evil of human society so precisely. It brings out the compassionate side of people. I was very touched; the show was very inspiring."
