Liu Wenzheng is known as the ancestor of Chinese music idols, and became famous because of the release of his first solo album "Promise" in 1975. At that time, a group of people with insight in Taiwan's music world were dissatisfied with the current situation of English songs leading the music world, and launched the "Campus Folk Song Movement", in which Liu Wenzheng was the mainstay. He has created an unprecedented unique singing style. The music style is changeable, and the music achievements are remarkable. His representative works, "Rain in March", "Promise", "Shiny Days", and "Ami Ami", are popular in Asia.
