Denise has been a public face of the leaderless anti-government protests in Hong Kong that began in early June.

Canto-pop singer and activist Denise Ho Wan-sze had red paint thrown over her while she was attending a march in Taipei on Sunday in support of the Hong Kong protests.

Video clips circulating on social media show the man throwing the paint over the singer’s head, and it also splashes reporters and their microphones and recording devices.Two people, including a man in his 40s, were taken into custody over the incident, according to United Daily News.“You can see Hong Kong social activists are facing this kind of threat to their safety on a daily basis,” she said.

Without directly mentioning the paint attack, Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen said those who had sought to sabotage the rally or use violence had been arrested and would be dealt with according to the law. The opposition Kuomintang also issued a statement condemning the attack and calling for people to be able to express support for Hong Kong in a peaceful and reasonable way.
