Taisho Gou

==Background==
Taisho Gou is a contestant from The Strife and has been living in Canada since he was 16. He is creative, very optimistic, but not very patient. He has been married to his wife, Chloe Gou (nee Burton), for four years and he has one child, Lily, who is three years old at the time of Season 1.To note: their heritage is Japanese.
==Season 1==
Since the beginning, Taisho has been very friendly with everybody and is one of the contestants that has tried to avoid a confrontation with somebody, only arguing with Marlene when she tried to get personal with him, mentioning his wife, before she was eliminated. Other than that, he has remained very optimistic, as well as very excited whenever a challenge starts. His stories about how he met Chloe have been adorable, as well as his stories surrounding Lily. In the end, everybody but Allan, Benji, and Jonesy believed Taisho to be a wildcard, much like Aerin. He left with the best attitude of anybody before him, leaving the other contestants wondering if the right choice was made.
==Season 3==
When Taisho entered the season, he became a very popular figure within the house as he spoke about his love for his wife, Chloe, and child, Lily. His speeches of motivation made him beloved within the house, causing Channing, Layla, and Shahla to consider targeting him. However, he ended up being safe during the first elimination. Following that, he kept up his cheery and friendly attitude, being the self-proclaimed "Dad" of the house, confessing to a camera that this is all a strategy to keep himself in the game as he wants to make people think that life will be harder without him in the house. He would end up forming a really good friendship with Gareth by the time of the double elimination. Throughout the remainder of his run in the game, he stayed friendly, under the radar, and social in general. This got him to the finale where he got 4th.
==Season 5==
In Season 5, he was feared for being a very lovable person and was sent to the first duel where he lost and got 18th.
