- When she joined, her knowledge of the Japanese language was extremely limited, but since then she has improved greatly.
- Often sends long emails to Michishige Sayumi.
- As shown on Haromoni@, Junjun loves bananas and is willing to eat them at all cost.
- Competed in a beauty contest held in Yueyang (her hometown) in 2005, and achieved 2nd place. During the contest she expressed her dream of becoming a singer and stated that she practiced around two hours each day.
- Her family lives in Taiwan.
- Her favorite color is red. When clarifying the reason why this is, Junjun stated that her favorite flower is the higanbana (Cluster Amaryllis, or spider lily), which blooms red-colored flowers but, when it's blooming, possesses no leaves; when it has leaves, it has no flowers. It is said that its flowers aren't good luck and they bloom near tombs, which gave birth to the legend that they will bloom around your tomb after you die. But despite this fact, she still loves the flowers.
- Before her induction into Morning Musume, her favorite member was Michishige Sayumi. Shortly after joining, she expressed her deep admiration for Michishige.
