Starting to sing at age 14，Esther Lau (刘品言) and Joanne Tseng (曾之乔) were among the youngest performers in their company. Over the years，they have learnt to be strict with themselves. “No one forces us，but we have to work very hard to get to the top，” they said. “The early bird gets the worm. ”Recently，they have brought their new CD，“Sweet Talk” to Beijing. Their songs are as sweet as their honey looks. Although their voices go together well，they have different personalities. Esther is outgoing，while Joanne looks shy. They also have different ways to set life goals. “I have to make shortterm goals and realize them one by one，” said Esther. But Joanne said she sets longer goals. “I like to keep one final goal in my heart and work hard to reach it，” she says. Esther studies English at a college. She hopes to be a teacher someday.
