Chris Chiu (Chinese: 邱宇辰; pinyin: Qīu Yǔ Chén; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Khu Ú-sîn), born Chiu Yi-cheng (Chinese: 邱翊橙; pinyin: Qiū Yì Chéng; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Khu E̍k-chhêng),[1] formerly known as Mao Di or Modi, is a member of a trio boyband, JPM,[2] with Liao Xiao Jie/Liljay[3] and his older brother, Prince Chiu (formerly known as Wang Zi, Chinese: 王子, lit. Prince).[4]
He was a former member of Choc7,[5] a Taiwanese Mandopop boyband with seven members. They were all chosen from Channel [V] Taiwan's show Bang Bang Tang (BBT 模范棒棒堂), a show which sought to create new male artists in the entertainment business of Taiwan.[citation needed]
In 2010, a rumor of Choc7's disbandment was spread and heard. However, it is still not confirmed as of now.[6] Chiu is now signed under A Legend Star Entertainment Corp., a company founded by former Channel [V] Taiwan director, Andy Chang.[7]
