Paris-based Singaporean host and actress Sharon Au embarked on a birthday trip recently – not for herself, but for her “Japanese papa”.

The 49-year-old star flew from the French capital – where she has been living in since 2018 – to the Japanese prefecture of Okinawa to surprise the patriarch of the foster family that had hosted her as an exchange student to Tokyo when she was 17.
