Cheng Lin Ko, the executive director of the concert, said “I am very touched, not only because students spent a lot of time preparing for this performance, but also because the older student members were willing to spare time to mentor the new student members, who only recently started to learn music and dance. They practiced and corrected each other's problems together, which are all their precious memories”.
