What Love Has Taught Us (Chinese: 愛，教會我們的事; pinyin: Ài, jiàohuì wǒmen de shì) is the second studio album by Taiwanese singer-songwriter Eric Chou, released by Sony Music Taiwan on August 8, 2016. Pre-orders for the album began on July 22. The album contains 10 songs, all composed by Chou.

The single "How Have You Been?" experienced commercial success, topping the KKBOX Mandarin Singles Chart for 30 consecutive weeks, while its music video reached 185 million views by July 2022. Chou worked with producers Daniel Bi and Starr Chen to strengthen the album's sense of rhythm and to incorporate R&B elements.

Background

In 2016, Chou served as a composer for the Chinese television series Magical Space-Time, writing three songs including "Back to the Day" which was performed by himself, and was used for as the theme song of the drama. The song will eventually appear on his then upcoming album.

Release

A year and eight months after the release of his successful debut studio album My Way to Love, Chou released the first official single off of his new album, "How Have You Been?" According to Chou, he was walking in the park with his dog, Chopin, when he noticed a patch of green illuminated by sunlight, and a melody immediately flashed through his mind. He started working on the melody when he got home and pointed the 2015 film Brooklyn as one of the inspirations for the song. He also wrote the song for his late grandmother who passed away shortly after his debut.

On August 8, 2016, Chou officially released his second studio album, What Love Has Taught Us.
