This clearly cannot come as a surprise to anyone following Fahrenheit and/or are aware of the recent six-months worth of rumors surrounding Wu Zun and his personal and professional life – HIM Music has confirmed this week that Fahrenheit is now a three-member group. Wu Zun has officially left Fahrenheit, which will not be disbanding and will continue all scheduled and future activities with only Aaron Yan, Calvin Chen, and Jiro Wang.
I highly doubt they will replace Zun since I’m really not sure how much longer the group will stay together anyways. Age and individual pursuits typically takes it toll on boybands after some years. I am sad he’s leaving, but happy for everyone involved if his heart isn’t in singing anymore and Warner forced him to stay.
I’m not a Fahrenheit fangirl, but I have a fondness for them because they did do so well as a Taiwanese boyband, gaining quite an Asian following as the TW-boyband I would consider the sucessor to F4. Everytime an Asian boyband loses a member or breaks up, I always say a prayer that the grandaddy of all boybands SMAP have managed to stay together for 20 years now. Have a Fahrenheit MV to reminisce.
MV for “Too Hot” (one of the most recent singles off the latest album):
Without Wu Zun, Fahrenheit is officially missing Autumn. Calvin is Spring, warm; Jir is Summer, hot; Zun is Autumn, cool; and lastly, Aaron is Winter, cold. Each of the four members also has his respective temperature represented on the Fahrenheit scale: Calvin at 77 degrees, Jiro at 95 degrees, Zun at 59 degrees, and Aaron at 41 degrees. Each of their temperatures are separated by 18 degrees.

Were they ever considered for the "Boys Over Flowers" drama? Is that why you often refer to "F4" with them?
F4 (later renamed JVKV) was a very popular Taiwanese boyband in the early 2000s. They were four guys who played...you guessed it...F4 in 2001 Taiwanese adaptation of BOF, Meteor Garden (Jerry Yan, Vic Zhou, Ken Chu and Vanness Wu). Most of them went on to have successful showbiz careers, which is what I hope will happen to Farenheit when they fully disband.
Argh, instead of "drama" it's supposed to read "boynand". They were a boyband who were formed after the drama.
I edited your comment for you. :-D
It's about time he goes solo for a mature look befitting his age and image now... I hope he continues to sharpen his acting skill though...
sad to see him leave the group, but whatever's best for him. hope he's not leaving the entertainment industry.
I am actually kinda glad - the fishbowl, regimented, sexless world of idols is pretty insane. Isn't he in his 30s now and, if rumors are true, with a family (the fact that he has to hide a family is pretty much proof of how insane it all is). It's not like he needs the money.
Hope he doesn't disappear entirely though - he's not a strong actor but he does have a very likeable screen presence and is very easy on the eyes.
So agree .... I have never understood why fans turn on an idol who is married (Jon Bon Jovi, anyone??) when she/he are beautiful, talented, just enjoy what they have to offer, dream your own little dreams if you want, and stay in the reality that they are all unavailable ......
Not all single are available but not all taken are "in love" hehehe
Strange that they're not going to "re-complete" the four seasons... isn't that what Fahrenheit stands for? They're supposed to have different temperature ranges. I forgot which member is assigned to which temp.
Anyway, that would make sense (the non-replacement) if they plan to disband soon. :((
If I'm not wrong Wun Zun was on one of the cold seasons, autumn or winter.... well if he was autumn maybe they just want to stay true to actual world climate, and since global warming is making spring and autumn disappear.... so on that train of thought the next one would be Calvin...
I like the golden leaves on the tree, Autumn in New York...hehehe ;-)
I'm sad. But I wish luck to all.
thanks for the info.
so sad he has to leave the group....but like Miss K said...age n individual pursuits always be the main problems on boy/girl band...I'm sure the fans will understand...accept it n support him...Wuzun JiaYou!!!
I think the fact the smap doesn't disband has a lot to do with the powerful Johnny's behind... I don't think there's anyone who was able to remain in the industry while being successful after quitting the company... (even SM in Korea couldn't keep this "record" in "retaining their talents")
Anyhow I think smap is really a shinhwa (haha so strange that a korean word came to my mind when i talk about j-pop group) for idol group... they've been in the industry forever and still going strong (and kimutaku still looks damn fine). I mean, look at their weekly variety show smap x smap - after running for more than a decade they still manage to add in new stuff. there's a reason for their success and the sustainability of their idol status.
sorry, i have a lot to talk about when it comes to japan's entertainment industry (despite this post is about TW idols) =PPP
Oh so Takuya Kimura is a member of that SMAP?
I only know about the group because of the parody in Yakitate Japan: CMAP. Haha
I guess it shouldn't be a surprise really, but still WOW. I agree that boysband don't stay long, ppl have the need to grow and move on. I hope that Wu Zun is happy and if the wifey/kid rumor is true, I hope that he gets to enjoy his family.
To the rest of the boys I wished them luck on their independent projects, cause the 3 boy band group is not going to last for long.
I think it makes sense. I didn't follow the group or anything but I remember when they first debuted. Hopefully this will give Wu Zun a chance to at least sharpen his acting skills. I honestly think that he falls behind even the typical asian actor skills wise, except that he's got good looks. I too think that the group isn't going to last too long but individually, I think the 3 of them are going to be fine.
Hehe... SMAP :) The Japanese market is something else. Just amazing. I luv.
