Random Goodbyes, staged at the Royal Flemish Theater in Brussels in front of packed audiences, is a collaboration with choreographers Moya Michael and David Hernandez, and was performed by Chinese and local European dancers.

Jin commissioned the two artists to choreograph a piece for her company in 2019, but unfortunately the project had to be stopped due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic. Random Goodbyes finally made its premiere in Shanghai in November.

Random Goodbyes seeks to reveal how, behind every face in the audience, hides a story, a collection of all their hellos and goodbyes, and the myths they become. What they do and what is done to them is random but still specific in all its intimate detail, each isolated in their desire for belonging.

This is the first time Jin's dance companies in Shanghai and Paris have worked together on a piece in Europe.

The shows in Brussels also included Echo, a shortened version of the larger original work that was also an introduction to a Jin Xing Dance Theater production piece, choreographed by Moya Michael in 2013.

The focal point of Echo is a group of women, occupying space. Each woman has an individual story that it intertwined with the group, yet each woman has her own voice.
