Jimmy Lin, a singer from Taiwan, and his kid were involved in an accident on July 22 in Taoyuan. According to sources, Lin’s white Tesla struck a road divider and caught fire while he was driving it.
The father and boy were rescued from the automobile by onlookers who jumped to their aid. Jimmy’s face was covered in blood, and it appeared as though his arm had been broken, according to witnesses.
His many fractures were confirmed by Lin’s agency on Friday, and the hospital staff is doing everything they can to assist him. More information is still pending, however, his condition is stable for now.
At the scene of the collision, Lin’s wife and family could be observed. According to accounts, Lin complained of pain in his left and right shoulders, while his son showed evidence of chest contusions. A blood alcohol test and traffic cameras both demonstrated that Jimmy was not speeding and was not intoxicated.
Jimmy Lin was required to complete the mandatory military duty
Jimmy Lin’s stage performance in Hua Gang, where he was studying drama and photography, led to his discovery. He first turned down his manager’s invitation to work in the entertainment industry, but he later accepted and, after releasing his debut album, Not Every Love Song Has Fond Memories, in 1992, rose to fame.
13 other albums were made and released by Lin, who also appeared in numerous films and television shows and was an occasional commercial endorser. In spite of some setbacks, he performed admirably as a soldier and won a few accolades throughout his 1994 year of military service, which was required. In 1996, he picked up acting and singing again.
Jimmy Lin encountered a lot of competition from newbies when he returned to the entertainment business. He had an accident while chasing his ambition of racing cars, but he didn’t give up. Lin received his racing instruction from Ma Jun Kun and together with his two pals, he established the Ping Tzuo Racing Advisory Company.
He founded the Jimmy Lin Rally Team in 2006 after hosting the Jimmy Cup for celebrities in 2005. In addition, he concentrated on his singing career, working on his final album, Going for a Walk, in 2006. He continued to perform the anthems for movies and television programs in addition to other occasions. In 2006, he then made an appearance in his first modern Chinese television series, Single Princess and Blind Dates.
