Funeral directors do not work the same as what traditional funeral people do. Like Chen, funeral directors often graduate with a major in funeral ceremony and professional training. Modern funerals are changing to a simpler rite with customized service while a traditional funeral is noisy and wasteful.
Working as a funeral director doesn't affect Chen's energetic life. To relax, he likes riding a bicycle during his leisure time. Recently he's been playing guitar. Chen said his work flexibility is like what guitar can do for both solo and accompaniment.
