Actor Fu Zichun Passes Away Suddenly from Acute Leukemia at 46: 'Not Holding a Wedding Banquet' Becomes a Lifelong Regret

Taiwanese Minshi TV’s leading man Fu Zichun passed away suddenly on the afternoon of the 7th due to complications from acute leukemia. He was rushed to Tamsui Mackay Memorial Hospital, but after several hours of intensive resuscitation, he was pronounced dead at the age of 46. The news shocked the entertainment industry, with numerous celebrities and fans posting tributes, mourning the early passing of this 'zero-negative-criticism idol,' who portrayed a steel-tough image on screen but was extremely warm-hearted in private.

Fu Zichun rose to fame after starring in 'Rookies’ Diary' and had frequent drama offers in recent years. Despite his busy work schedule, he lived very frugally, once revealing, 'You should reduce material desires; earning 100,000 and earning 10,000 is the same.' He spent three-quarters of his income to support his family and managed to buy a home through thrift and hard work. In the temptation-filled entertainment industry, he was particularly known as being 'scandal-proof.' Even though he formed classic on-screen couples with actresses like Su Yanpei and filmed countless intimate scenes, he always maintained a gentlemanly distance from his co-stars off screen.

This deep affection and self-discipline all stemmed from his ultimate care for his wife, Miss Li, who is outside of the entertainment circle. Initially committed to a no-marriage philosophy, both he and his wife—both practical Capricorns—dated for seven years with perfect chemistry. He quietly registered their marriage in 2018 but intentionally kept it secret for three years before going public, just so his wife could live comfortably and not be disturbed by the outside world.

Privately, Fu Zichun was a devoted and loving husband, taking care of all household chores like sweeping, washing dishes, and cutting fruits. He once joked that he wasn’t romantic, but when they dined out, his wife only needed to blink at a dish, and he would take the initiative to serve her and peel her shrimp. Yet, due to both being low-key, they never held a formal wedding banquet, which became his greatest regret.

This March, Fu Zichun had just taken his wife and friends on vacation to Okinawa and Bali. However, after returning to Taiwan, his illness broke out suddenly and without warning. On the afternoon of the 7th, he abruptly lost his heartbeat and breathing; the aggressive onset of his illness left everyone totally unprepared. His family is now enduring immense grief while handling follow-up arrangements. The final curtain for this loving tough guy has left the public full of regret and sorrow.
