On October 22, 2010, Selina Jen’s life changed forever. The Taiwanese singer, who turns 39 at the end of this month, was filming musical drama I Have a Date with Spring in Shanghai when a horrific on set explosion left her with third-degree burns on over half of her body.
Yesterday (Oct 22) marked the 10th anniversary of the accident — or, as she called it, her “rebirthday” — and the S.H.E member took to her socials to share the lengthy text message that her father had sent her early that morning. It was a detailed account of what happened when he found out that his daughter had been injured, as well as the days that followed.
