The song “Full Glass of Bitter Wine”, in particular, took Taiwan by storm, and became the most famous forbidden Chinese song of the 1960s. According to reports, the record sold more than 176,000 copies in Taiwan and more than 130,000 in Hong Kong, Liuqiu and Southeast Asia as of February 1968, bringing the total to 310,000 copies.
