Wang Leehom | Full Address | Oxford Union

There’s something addictive to binge watching Lee-Hom Wang’s music videos and speeches after the whole scandal thing. It’s like baring witness to a real-life twist villain plot eight years in the making.

[@biancafehn5755]

beautiful speech...watch it in 2021 after chinese filmindustry and music brought me to be inerested in China and even learning Mandarin. So he is absolutely right with what he says. China is not just it`s politics but a beautiful, colourful, lively country with a young generation they can be more than proud of. Wang Lee Hom is doing a great job!!!....(and now at the age of about 45 in 2021 I must say: he didn`t look that much older than Wang Yibo with his 23 years at New Year`s concert or did he appear less energetic....Stunning and probably because of the genes as a descendant of the dragon... :-)

[@採菊绚麗]

It's ironic that he expounds the importance of balance in any relationship, including marriage ( so as to sustain it). If he had been walking the talk, the problems in his marriage could have been solved.

[@yonglele]

loved this talk. This talk covers important issues and is very well written and delivered. It did get a little bit "simplistic", idealistic and almost "Family of Man" type of optimistic near the end (not really addressing power difference, mapping, cultural hegemony, etc. and the intricate issues that have kept people "apart"). But as artists, we ultimately believe in the power of our creation and in stories; music and film, in this regard, are truly powerful art forms. good job!

Where ever I went or lived in, I always find myself as a minority, may it be as a Chinese/Asian or as a western influenced Chinese (or what is known as a "banana", white on the inside, yellow on the outside). Now, I pride myself as bilingual and appreciator of music from both cultures. I am unique in my own way. Leehom will always be my idol, coming from similar backgrounds. Not only does he stood up for Chinese music, he also stands for being western influenced and not afraid to showcase it. :D

[@haruehun]

As an Asian I started speaking English because of him. I know it sounds funny. But I was happy I once talked to him in person in English (that I had learned from watching him) at the young age. Always influential and inspirational. Amazing guy.

[@jlcwh58]

I am a big Leehom fan and his final message of music breaking boundaries is great and all, but it's just so idealistic and simplified.. this 'soft power imbalance' can't just be re-distributed simply through arts, it is a product of hundreds of years of the world's history and the West's much more influential cultural dominance in arts, science and politics
