Most people would agree that reality television lost its zeal a long time ago. But every now and then, you see something that you never would have witnessed had it not been for, say, a reality singing competition. With that, enter Lin Yu Chun.
The singer from Taipei made a splash on the Taiwanese singing competition Super Star Avenue. Just like Susan Boyle, Lin Yu Chun shocked crowds with an unbelievable singing voice and a look that does not scream rockstar.
Something else Lin Yu Chun and Susan Boyle share is that, despite not winning their respective shows, they both went on to gain popularity abroad.
