Taiwanese pop group Energy found themselves down one man during a ticket-signing event in Singapore yesterday (Oct 5).
The quintet — Nick Yeh (Milk), Edy Hsiao (Ady), Kuo Wei-yun (Toro), Hsieh Kun-da and Chang Shu-wei — held the public event where they performed at Our Tampines Hub and gave autographs to ticket-holders of their upcoming Nov 23 concert.
They began the event with their songs Come On and Let Go, but according to local media 8World, things took a turn when host Hazelle Teo asked Toro a question.

When asked if he'd eaten the local laksa he wanted to yet, the 43-year-old reportedly said: "No, but I want to cry now. I want to explain why I've become like this."
He shared that he had become emotional because he previously came to Singapore to promote his music alone, but had now returned with all four other members of Energy.
"It's weird, why am I crying?" he added.
Toro left the group in 2003 to join another group, only one year after Energy's debut. Milk also left in 2005, which Ady referenced as he told Toro: "Don't do this! We've gone through more, from one fewer member to two. Down to three members and then to four."
They had Xiao Gang as a replacement member between 2007 to the group's hiatus in 2009, but Energy announced their reunion with the original members earlier this year.
Later, as the group performed their song A Particular Year, A Particular Month, A Particular Day, Toro abruptly left the stage as Shu-wei defused the situation by saying, "It's okay, he'll be there at the concert!"
"That's the charm of our live performances," Milk added.
