In the later part of the 1970’s, there was a star that Chinese youth and their parents both liked – Momoe Yamaguchi. She fit well with the Confucian teachings of Chinese culture: reserved, filial and traditional. She stepped off the stage at the peak of her career and married her lover both on- and off-screen, Tomokazu Miura. She has since remained out of the spotlight and devotes her time to her family. She may have disappeared from the center stage, but her voice remains.
