Serena Liu (born Liu Chen; Chinese: 劉真; pinyin: Liú Zhēn; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Lâu Chin; 9 June 1975 – 22 March 2020), also known as Serina Liu, was a Taiwanese dancer and actress.

Early life and education

Liu started ballet lessons when she was a child and continued for 12 years, establishing strong foundations in dancing.[1] She began to learn ballroom dancing at the age of 18. While studying at National Chengchi University, she continued ballroom dancing. After graduation, under her parents' persuasion, she applied for a job at a bank but ultimately at the age 23, decided to follow her passion in dance and participate in competitions.[1][2]

Career

Liu taught dance in appearances on variety and talk shows, before hosting her own television programs and acting in television series.[3][4][5]

Personal life

Liu and Taiwanese singer Shin Lung (辛龍) registered their marriage on 17 May 2014,[6] and held their wedding at Ocean Crystal Chapel in Honolulu, Hawaii on 9 June in the same year.[7] Liu announced the birth of their daughter on 15 February 2016.[8]

Death

Liu suffered from a narrowed aortic valve.[9] Her husband told the media that she had learnt about her condition purely by chance. Liu had taken her four-year-old daughter to see a doctor for a cold, but the young girl refused to let the doctor place a stethoscope on her chest. The doctor then demonstrated the stethoscope's use to the child by placing the device on Liu's chest. The doctor realised then that Liu had a heart murmur, and advised her to seek further treatment.[10] Liu could have opted for an aortic valve replacement, but it would have required long-term medication after the surgery to prevent blood clots.[9] The medication may also derail her plans to have a second child.[9] On 7 February 2020,[3] while undergoing a heart valve repair surgery at Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Liu had an unexpected sudden cardiac arrest and fell into a coma.[9] Liu was then admitted to the intensive care unit and had been put on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation since then.[9] Despite subsequent operations to deal with a developing cerebral embolism and increased brain pressure, Liu died on 22 March 2020 at the age of 44 after her body had stopped responding to medication and treatment.[3][11]
