Leon Dai, Director of "No Pudeo Vivir Sin Ti", said, "I bet the jury was under great pressure when judging my work. So I really appreciate that they gave me such an honor. Also, I appreciate the Taiwan society that has inspired me. I have always devoted myself to respond to it."

Dai was also thrilled to receive the Best Director trophy from four prestigious directors Ang Lee, Stanley Kwan, Johnny To, and Hou Hsian-Hsien, who have won seven Golden Horse Best Director trophies in total.

Leon Dai said, "I will cherish that moment forever and I will keep that picture in my mind for my whole life. The honor will encourage me to make better films."
