Their music resonated deeply in countries like China, Indonesia, and the Philippines, where their clean-living image and heartfelt English ballads were a perfect fit. Their popularity surged with the 2004 album release of an English-language adaptation of the famous Chinese song "Ao Yun." This track became a massive hit, earning awards and selling millions of digital downloads, solidifying their legendary status in the region.
