Endo: At the beginning of the marriage and (Lin Guanlun) with the time, as a girlfriend, I will wholeheartedly support him, after all, support players is the most girlfriend can do. However, in Taiwan is relatively easy to move, compared to the mainland or the United States, Taiwan, various places to move are considered close. But it's true that most of the time the girl (partner) needs to cooperate with the player and fulfill his sports career. After all, the player's training itself has geographical needs, so it's normal to cooperate with the team's movement, and I think I'm more patient on this point.

Endo: Before and after marriage, I feel that I do have to adjust, as an Aries personality, I do change a lot, before I got married I was doing what I like, I can cooperate with what I do, no cooperation you can not force me. But after marriage, it's a family matter, we have to discuss it, and I need to cooperate with him. For example, my own company is located in Taipei, originally my house and the company are only two MRT stations away, but because my husband has to move to Hsinchu and take up a management position, I have to move to Hsinchu for my family from my workplace in Taipei, and it does mean that I have to do the high speed rail to go to work, but it's the choice that a family needs to make.

Endo: I think that to be able to become the other half of the players, professional athletes, no matter boys and girls, must need to have their own can be independent, endure loneliness, or else is to have their own exclusive group of friends, because a long period of time to move, separated will certainly be lonely, need to have a high degree of mutual trust between the two parties to be able to last.

For football players and public figures, the media and public scrutiny are unavoidable, but they need to be well prepared. They may need to find appropriate ways to protect themselves and their family members from excessive media attention and public scrutiny, while at the same time being able to present a positive image to the public. It may be possible to find a public relations team to manage media relations so that the family's privacy can be protected and choices can be made about when and how to interact with the media and the public.

Endo: We are not as exaggerated as Beckham, because the couple is a global and international superstar, so the paparazzi need to have a more professional image to follow them, etc. But basically, when facing the media, they still keep a little face in front of the public. But basically, when it comes to the media, they still save face with each other in front of the public, and if they really want to say something, they go home and talk about it in private. But it is true that top stars are likely to present a set outside, but not at home.

Endo: There was a controversial incident with Guanlun, and there were indeed fans who came to my fanzine or private messages asking for information. Of course, they were concerned, but they were also more emotional, saying "how could you be with this kind of person", which is usually irrational fans, and because of their irrationality, I just laughed and told Guanlun, "why do they have to come to my side to leave messages? However, because not many people I know have the same background as me, and both husband and wife happen to be ballplayers and cheerleaders (similar to the relationship between Hu Zhi, the pitcher of the Unified Lions, and Ailu, the cheerleader of the Chinese Professional Lions), I did talk to Ailu about how to cope with the attention, and we both have to be supportive of our own families and it does test the wisdom of the other half. So, were you really prepared to be a professional player's wife? That's really something to take into consideration as well.

With the way the average pro handles public appearances in the media there are 6 ways:

1. PR Management: Hire a professional PR team to manage media relations and public image. Plan and implement an effective media communication strategy to properly convey messages and respond to media inquiries.

2. Social media strategy: Use social media to control personal and family storytelling and to connect with fans and the public. Avoid sharing too much personal information on social media to protect the privacy of family members.

3. Privacy protection: Set clear boundaries between family and private life to prevent unnecessary media interference. Protect family members, especially children, from unwanted media attention and public scrutiny.

4. Legal protection: Ensure that you understand and comply with the laws relating to privacy and media law and seek legal protection where necessary.

5. Positive Response: Respond quickly and positively to any negative media reports or public concerns to prevent the spread of misinformation. Provide correct information and clarification where necessary.
