While Tzuchen has yet to respond publicly on the matter, the agency has lagged behind SCHOOLThe production of promptly released an official statement.
“Recently, the issue of participant Lin Tzuchen’s private relationships has attracted a lot of attention. We feel deeply sorry. As an audition show focused on developing new artists, SCHOOL maintains the fundamental values of professionalism, correctness and social responsibility. We expect participants to become role models and have a positive impact on our audiences as they pursue their dreams.
After deep discussions and careful consideration between the production team and other parties, to respect the teamwork and fairness of the crew, Lin Tzuchen will take part in the finale and fan concert with the other participants. However, he will no longer be part of the actual competition and debut voting. He won’t be fighting for a debut spot.
We believe that artists, in addition to having professional skills, must be role models for the public and build a positive image for their fans and for society. AS SCHOOL aims to educate and develop qualified idols who, in addition to stage skills and charisma, must possess the character and qualities of being a public figure. We believe that all participants have room for learning and development, the ability to continue to do better during this learning process, and ultimately become idols worthy of respect.
We sincerely hope that he can learn from this experience and face future challenges in a more mature manner. The production team will create more high-quality content while maintaining fairness and professionalism. We also hope that this issue will not affect the other participants’ pursuit of their dreams and we expect even better performances in the finale. Once again, thank you for everyone’s support.”
