The drummer, known as Yi Hou, caught the eye due to her attractive appearance and the daring move of unzipping her jacket to reveal a bikini top, showcasing her fit physique. This bold display captivated onlookers and quickly spread across the internet.
Following the viral spread of the drummer’s image, netizens identified her as Yi Hou. On her Instagram, she shares a laid-back lifestyle, with a strong emphasis on fitness.

Yi Hou participated in the festival as the drummer for the Hai Hong dragon boat team.
