Musical career

Accusefive was founded in April 2017 by Pan, Tsai, and Lin, in Yilan County, Taiwan.{{Cite web|title=告五人乐团：首张 EP《迷雾之子》发行台|url=https://dashi.streetvoice.cn/article/20171013/002/|access-date=October 31, 2021|website=大事 - 街声 - StreetVoice|language=zh-tw}} Tsai and Pan both attended National Yilan Senior High School and are in a relationship. The band's name doesn't have a special meaning. Rather, the three characters of the Chinese name ("accuse", "five" and "people") were chosen by each band member randomly pointing to a word on bulletin board.
The band released its first mini-album, Son of Mist, in October 2017. They won Best New Artist at the 9th Golden Indie Music Awards.{{Cite web|title=08/05｜Accusefive|url=https://www.teclandart.tw/en/moonlitsea/accusefive/|access-date=October 31, 2021|website=Taiwan East Coast Land Arts Festival}}
