Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO determined that the petitioner's past fame as a member of a Taiwanese pop band was not sustained through his subsequent work as an actor and photographer, and the evidence submitted did not meet the regulatory criteria for awards, major media, or original contributions.
