Remembering Barbie Hsu: The Meteor Garden Star

Barbie Hsu, the Taiwanese actress who rose to fame with her iconic role in the 2001 television drama Meteor Garden, has passed away at the age of 48 due to a respiratory illness. Her younger sister confirmed that Hsu developed pneumonia during a family trip to Japan over the Lunar New Year holiday.

The news of Hsu’s death spread quickly, with fans from Taiwan, the Philippines, and other countries paying tribute to the beloved actress on social media. Chinese actor Huang Xiaoming, who worked with Hsu on a Taiwanese drama, expressed his shock and grief over her passing.

Barbie Hsu, along with her sister Dee, first gained fame as a pop duo in the 1990s before transitioning to television presenting and acting. Her role as Dong Shan Cai in Meteor Garden catapulted her to stardom across Asia, and the drama remains a beloved classic to this day.

Despite her acting career taking a back seat in recent years, Hsu remained a prominent figure in the public eye through reality TV appearances and coverage of her personal life. She was known for her support of animal rights, with PETA expressing their heartbreak over her passing.

In 2010, Hsu married Chinese businessman Wang Xiaofei, with whom she had two children before their divorce in 2021. The following year, she found love again with South Korean DJ and singer Koo Jun-yup.

Barbie Hsu’s beauty, talent, and intelligence will forever be remembered by her fans and colleagues in the entertainment industry. She leaves behind a legacy of iconic performances and a lasting impact on Asian pop culture.
