In 2019, Fong released a new song "Explicit Comment (人話)" which she composed. [1] Its lyrics expressed her stance toward the anti-government protests explicitly. The music video of the song, made up of protest footage and scenes of police brutality, was highly popular upon release, the number of views exceeded 400 thousand by the second day of release.[2] As it was rare for public figures to voice out their stance and opinions on political issues, citizens that support the social movement praised Fong as a true singer for Hong Kong. At the same time, there were a lot of netizens who disagree with the act of protestors commenting hate speeches under her MV claiming that she was a rioter and trying to promote Hong Kong independence.[3]
