Last year, the 31-year-old established a dessert shop made full on Chou memorabilia; directed his first TV series; and made his first foray into Holly-wood, acting as Kato in Michel Gondry's Green Hornet, set to bring out in December, it continued.
“Cool!” said Chou after reading the news. He said he's been concentrating on holding a concerts tour latterly. “It will be even cooler whenever I can make the tour a huge success,” he added.
