Abstract: Let $(M,g)$ be a compact Riemann surface, $h$ be a positive smooth function on $M$. It is well known the functional ${\displaystyle }$J(u)=frac{1}{2}int_M| abla u|^2dv_g+8piint_M udv_g-8pilogint_Mhe^{u}dv_g${\displaystyle }$ achieves its minimum under Ding-Jost-Li-Wang condition. This result was generalized to nonnegative $h$ by Yang and the author. Later, Sun and Zhu (arXiv:2012.12840) showed Ding-Jost-Li-Wang condition is also sufficient for $J$ achieves its minimum when $h$ changes sign, which was reproved later by Wang and Yang (J. Funct. Anal. 282: Paper No. 109449, 2022) and Li and Xu (Calc. Var. 61: Paper No. 143, 2022) respectively using flow approach. The aim of this note is to give a new proof of Sun and Zhu's result. Our proof is based on the variational method and the maximum principle.
