Singer Wang Leehom has addressed fans directly after a dramatic scene in his new music video showed his piano going up in flames.

In a video posted to his social media, the Taiwanese-American star looked visibly emotional while explaining the piano used in the shoot was truly destroyed during filming.

“My piano really burned. I’m heartbroken—not about my face, but the piano. It used to be a real instrument, now it’s melted like chewing gum,” he said, standing next to the charred remains.

The burning piano features in the official music video for his latest single I’m Alive, which Wang recently released. In his post, he also shared a more personal rendition of the song's first verse, aiming to deepen the emotional resonance.

As the video gained attention online, rumours began to swirl, claiming that Leehom had torched an antique piano worth millions of yuan. Some even alleged that the singer had suffered facial burns during the fiery shoot.

Wang Leehom Studio swiftly issued a statement to clear the air.

They confirmed that the piano used was NOT an antique but a prop, bought specifically for the production at just 2,200 yuan. All purchase records and product details have been archived for transparency.

The studio emphasised that the burning scene held symbolic meaning and was crucial to the video's concept. “The burning piano is a symbol of the fiery trials that purify faith,” Wang wrote in his caption.

They also clarified that using a real piano was a creative decision. The team believed that CGI or special effects couldn’t replicate the raw intensity and emotional weight the scene required.

Importantly, the studio stressed that the shoot was carried out under strict safety measures. Professional firefighters and medical staff were present throughout filming, and no injuries occurred on set.

Many fans expressed sympathy, praising the emotional power of the scene. Some commented, “It’s painful to see the piano like that, but it sacrificed itself for art,” and “It’s an honour for the piano to be part of something so meaningful.”

The studio also condemned those spreading misinformation and stated their intent to pursue legal action against anyone deliberately crafting hoaxes for online clout.

Despite the controversy, I’m Alive has been met with enthusiasm, with fans moved by its intense message of resilience and rebirth.

Wang, who has been actively preparing for new music projects, seems determined to let the art speak louder than the noise surrounding it.

As he said himself, while pointing at the wreckage of the piano: “I feel sorry—not for my face, but for this piano. It meant something.”
