Taiwanese star Lai Guanlin stood out in Korea's ‘PRODUCE 101’ ten years ago, becoming a member of the project boy group ‘WANNA ONE’. After the group contract ended and disbanded, he first went to develop his career in China, and later announced he was leaving showbiz to move behind the scenes in pursuit of his dream of becoming a director.
Recently, he made a surprise appearance on WANNA ONE’s 10th debut anniversary group variety show. While chatting with member Ha Sungwoon, he revealed the meaning behind the tattoo on his arm, which is actually WANNA ONE’s debut date, August 7th, “807,” indicating that it is a very important day in his life, causing Ha Sungwoon to tear up on the spot.
Because Lai Guanlin left the entertainment industry, he did not participate in this WANNA ONE 10th debut anniversary variety show. However, Ha Sungwoon specially flew to Beijing to meet with Lai. During their meal, Lai Guanlin revealed the meaning of his arm tattoo. If you look closely, you can see the number “807,” which is WANNA ONE’s debut date. Lai went on to share why he got this number inked: “If there’s a day in my life really worth celebrating, or a day I especially want to commemorate, I’d say it’s August 7th, because it’s the day my hard work paid off and I got good results.”
Ha Sungwoon, upon hearing this, was first surprised and said, “This is amazing! I feel like I’m going to cry.” He then asked Lai Guanlin, since he’s been away from the Korean entertainment industry for so long, why his Korean hasn’t deteriorated at all, and even seems better than when he lived in Korea. Lai replied, “Actually, I still miss the Korean entertainment industry a little.” This left the other WANNA ONE members momentarily speechless.
