The 31-year-old plays sheng, a traditional Chinese wind instrument.

"Being involved in a movie is a new and interesting experience that helps us hone our social communication skills through acting," he adds.

Another member of the band is Xu Renyu, a 22-year-old guitarist who also knows how to play pipa, a traditional plucked, stringed instrument. He voices for his own role on post-production and does music programming.

When asked about the band's most memorable experience, Han says it's their public performance held at the jazz venue Blue Note Shanghai on Nov 27, 2020.

"We played six songs that day. We received overwhelming support from the audience. The applause lasted so long after we finished playing that I can still vividly recall the scene," says Han. "That moment affirmed our belief that we should chase our dreams. We are now planning to learn how to write songs. We also want to go on a world tour in the future."
