Lee Hom flares up at reporters

Recently, Taiwanese singer-actor Lee Hom was spotted bringing model Evelyn Lin back to his mansion, and the couple only left his house separately twelve hours later.

At the Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport yesterday, Lee Hom, wearing a pair of shades and a hat, was spotted at the departure hall before he took off for Shanghai to attend a charity event.

"Which media are you from?" the 36-year-old snapped when quizzed by reporters about his relationship with Evelyn.

The singer-songwriter refused to respond to reporters' questions and got frustrated. He even used his hand to shield his face from being photographed and hurriedly left for the check-in gate. The situation got chaotic when four of his assistants used their bodies to prevent reporters from getting close to Lee Hom.

His manager responded, "[Lee Hom] was afraid that he would not be in time for his flight and reporters were standing in the way."

On the other hand, Evelyn uploaded a photo of her red-polished nails, commenting: "My favourite red!"

Netizens called her post a declaration of her love for Lee Hom, as the Chinese word for "red" has the same pronunciation as the singer's last name.

Lee Hom's fans have mixed feelings over their idol's new love interest. Some gave blessings to the couple, while others regarded them as incompatible. Disagreeing fans claim that the multi-hyphenate's "standards have dropped" when they compared Evelyn to his former rumoured girlfriends Shu Qi and A-Mei.
