Still recovering from the accident, Selina wore a long sleeve white dress and black silk stockings to cover scars and pressure garments.

She couldn’t stand for long and mainly sat throughout the press conference, after appearing on stage for three minutes.

She broke down, however, after reporters asked whether she had forgiven TV director Chen Ming-zhang (陳銘章), who was directing the explosion scene in Shanghai when things went terribly wrong.

Selina and fellow Chinese actor Yu Haoming (俞灏明) were seriously injured.

Selina did not directly answer the question but said in tears that her husband Richard Chang (張承中) has frequently comforted her, saying if he was the director, he would do the same — ie. not having stand-ins for the explosion scene.

She said before the shooting, she told the director she was scared. They assured her everything was alright and she had nothing to worry about.

“I should have hesitated or simply said I don’t want to do the scene,” she said.

Trying to start a new life, Selina is expected to shoot five more commercials in the second half of this year.

As she can only do indoor shooting for four to five hours a time and cannot fly for promotions, the endorsement deals will target only Taiwan for the moment.

He also displayed a shocking photo from months ago, when his hair was shaved and scorch marks were clearly seen on his head.

He said he was touched that Selina Jen (任家萱) and husband Richard Chang (張承中) often expressed their best wishes during his recovery period.

The 52-year-old said his wife Sun Liya (孙丽雅) cried nearly everyday after he suffered second-degree burns during a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment mishap on September 1.

Selina will also release an EP, Dream A New Dream (重做一個夢) on the same day, her first musical work since she suffered serious burns during a filming accident in October 2010.

The EP contains seven photos of her receiving physiotherapy.

In one, which has been uploaded online recently, she is seen wearing pressure garments from head to toe while riding an indoor bike, an arresting image that has caused heart ache among her fans.

“How much you must be suffering,” one wrote.

In related news, Selina’s SHE band mate Ella Chen (陳嘉樺) revealed in a TV program that SHE will release a new album by the end of next year.

Her father said the priority now is for Selina’s skin to stabilize.

The SHE singer was married to Richard Chang (張承中) on Monday but the two cannot share the same bed as her wounds still hurt and she can’t be touched.

Her mother said the 30-year-old singer thought of killing herself a few times.

Her mom once said, “We shouldn’t have given birth to her, then she wouldn’t have had to encounter this disaster.”

Walking slowly due to her burn injuries, the 30-year-old singer had to sit on a chair most of the time during the 3-hour-long wedding.

When guests approached and squatted down to encourage her, she was moved to tears.

The singer showed up in three beautiful wedding gowns, with some scars evident on her right shoulder.

Selina and her SHE band mates Hebe Tien (田馥甄) and Ella Chen (陳嘉樺) united to sing a song together, the first after the horrifying filming accident a year ago that burned 50 percent of Selina’s body.

In the VCR aired at the beginning of the ceremony, the groom Richard said, “I’ve been waiting to hold your hand and walk down the red carpet with you for so long.”

Selina responded in the video clip, “Finally, to be married to you!”

Aside from President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) and three other senior politicians, A-list celebrities Lin Chi-ling (林志玲), Jolin Tsai (蔡依林) and Wang Lee-hom (王力宏) also attended the wedding.

Her burn injuries are to blame.

Richard said her wounds still hurt and she can’t be touched.

“I’ve slept at the door of her bedroom for a long time … there won’t be much difference after we get married,” he said.

Still, he said he would love to have babies one day.

The couple recently offered a signed wedding invitation for public bidding to raise funds for a non-profit organization dedicated to burn victims.

A female fan won the bid by donating NT$222,000 ($7,300).

While thanking the fan for her generosity, Richard denied he has sowed discord between Selina and her two SHE band mates.

“I have no reason to destroy their friendship. The public truly underestimates SHE,” he said.

However, he and his other actress daughter Kirsten Jen (任容萱) were in the unusual position of refusing to talk about Selina at a charity event on Sunday.

The three girls’ 10-year friendship is said to have been shaken to the core by Richard’s interference.

Hebe clarified on Saturday that their relationship will never change.

Or a traditional wedding ceremony.

After her severe burn accident in an explosion while filming nearly a year ago, the SHE singer still has problems bending her fingers and she has to put 2kg sandbags on her knees just to help her stretch her leg joints.

To put on her wedding dress on the big day, she will have to wear pressure garments on her arms and legs.

Richard could not hold back his tears when detailing Selina’s condition on Monday at a fund-raising event to help burn injury patients.

He said Selina feels extremely uncomfortable whether she sits or stand.

As a result there will be no traditional wedding rituals and Selina will only appear for the banquet.
