Critical reception

Writing for the United Daily News, Tso Kuang-ping described: "There are not many singers who can make such large-scale singing and dancing performance in C-pop industry. Jolin Tsai is definitely second to none, but she has produced a set of work of a higher standard than expected. From everyone's reaction and word of mouth, there is no doubt about the good reviews."[33]
