#SHOWBIZ: Taiwanese YouTuber Baichi Princess recovers lost 38-year-old 'Chou Chou' pillow in Greece
TAIPEI: Taiwanese YouTuber Baichi Princess, whose real name is Dai Ping Ya, recently experienced every chou chou (comfort pillow) owner’s worst nightmare.
Taiwanese YouTuber, Baichi Princess, experienced the worst nightmare of any comfort pillow owner when her cherished A-Tien pillow went missing during a holiday in Athens. The pillow, which has been with her for 38 years and has its own Instagram account, @atienpillow87, was found safe on the bed when she left her hotel room one day.
However, upon returning after the hotel staff had cleaned, the pillow was nowhere to be found. After searching the room extensively, she contacted the front desk for assistance. The hotel staff assured her that housekeeping had not seen the pillow, emphasizing they would never steal a guest's belongings.
Suspecting the pillow might have been accidentally bundled with the bedsheets and sent to an external laundry facility, Baichi Princess waited until the next morning for updates. The hotel manager informed her that the laundry company had not found A-Tien, adding, "A pillow is so obvious. It should fall out when you shake the bedsheets!"
Devastated, she contemplated searching for A-Tien at the laundry facility herself. After six hours of negotiations, she was relieved to learn that A-Tien was found inside a bag of bedsheets sent by the hotel. However, a new challenge arose as the hotel did not provide a courier service. She opted to travel two hours by taxi to the laundry facility for a €61 (RM281) round trip to retrieve her beloved pillow in person.
Upon finally holding A-Tien again, Baichi Princess gained an unexpected follower - the laundry facility's boss.
