The entire showbiz and Meteor Garden fans have been shaken once again by the sad news of the passing of Barbie Hsu, better known as San Chai, the iconic character from the beloved Taiwanese drama. Not only her fans were mourning, but also her close friends in the industry. One of them was Ximen, the character played by Vanness Wu, who gave an emotional statement about the loss of her best friend.

In a live interview, Ximen couldn’t help but express her deep sadness and shock. “It’s hard to accept, because it feels like a big part of my life is gone. Barbie, or San Chai, was not just a friend in front of the camera, but a true friend in life,” said Vanness Wu. According to Vanness, it’s not easy for her to make a statement at this time, because of the memories of their collaboration in Meteor Garden and the simple moments in their friendship that will never be forgotten.

He emotionally said, “I don’t have enough words to explain how much he means to me. San Chai is one of the strongest people I have ever met. He is so inspirational, not only in his work but also to the people around him. I have learned nothing from him but the value of true relationships, being honest, and being strong despite all the trials.”

Vanness Wu chose to be grateful for the moments of her friendship with Barbie, and said that the lessons she learned from her will serve as a guide in her life. “She was such a kind person. She never hesitated to help anyone in need, and her kindness brought light to the dark times of my life.”

Despite the pain and sadness, Ximen said he will be grateful for all the good memories he and Barbie have. “I will never forget her. I can’t turn back time, but the memories will last forever,” Vanness added.

Ximen’s statements shed light on the deeper relationship between her and Barbie beyond their characters in Meteor Garden . While the entire industry mourns the loss of Barbie Hsu, her friends and colleagues continue to pay their last respects and gratitude to someone who left a huge mark on their lives and the world of showbiz.
