via: My randomness who says of them:

It was love at first listen for me. I must like funky music a lot ^_^ Won Fu is a Taiwan band that makes funky punky cute pop/rock music. Whenever I listen to them, I nod my head and dance/jumps around grinning like an idiot. Oh, yeah. Won Fu's songs ranges from cute pop tunes to heavy electric guitar punk rock songs, which is delightful. Their fun lyrics mixed with a sarcastic humour also makes me laugh every time. I guess Won Fu makes "wake up" + happy drug music ^_^MORE

The women in the band are Twiggy (bassist) and Mami (vocalist) There was another female vocalist named Judy, but she left after the third album to pursue other goals:

Taiwan Panarama: Seriously Joking--Wong Fu

Formed in 1998, Won Fu have released five full-length albums in their 12 years. They began when Xiao Min, then a student at Tamkang University, met bassist Twiggy and (now former) vocalist Judy online, and then later was introduced through an older student to drummer Dupi.

After recording three albums with the band from 2003, Judy left the band to "pursue different plans" in 2006, after which former Sound of Taipei (now Hit FM) DJ Mami joined, finalizing the current lineup. As for the band's name, that came from the "happy" name Twiggy gave to a chubby stray dog she used to see at school-Won Fu.MORE

They were chosen as one of Taiwan's cultural exports in 2009 Taiwanese embassy: Won Fu, Taiwan’s next cultural export

Recognizing the potential of music to create a strong international presence for Taiwan, President Ma Ying-jeou included the cultural and creative industries as part of his Challenge 2008, a six-year National Development Plan. In promoting the island’s music, the Government Information Office (GIO) has chosen to sponsor Won Fu, a popular Taiwanese indie band, to tour the western United States this month.

Not your average rock band

The four-person band will arrive for a three-week stay on October 15th and have a packed schedule filled with performances, cultural visits and exchanges, recording sessions and interviews. In addition to introducing Taiwan's music to a foreign audience, the initiative hopes to inspire the band’s creativity and growth.

Won Fu are innovative and wildly popular in Taiwan. The band members consist of Xiao Min (male vocal, guitar), Mami (female vocal), Dupy (drums), Twiggy (bass) and Ringo (the bandleader and a real dog). Contrary to the stereotype associated with rock bands, this wacky rock quartet does not appear in leather jackets or tight jeans, nor do they present an intimidating image of angry young rebels. Won Fu believe that their music and their live shows should be full of joy.

Formed in October 1998 by guitarist and vocalist Xiao Ming and bass player Twiggy, “Won Fu” is named after a pet beagle at Twiggy’s school. MORE
