## Personal life and education

Hao was originally enrolled in the China University of Geosciences which is one of the top 5 best colleges for Geoscience in the world. For this he took the Gaokao (NCEE) at the mere age of 16. Usually the test is taken at 18. And he entered college at 17. But then he decided that he didnt want to pursue Geoscience and took up the violin. He was originally discouraged from playing it since he wasn't very good, but then went under severe training for 6 months and then retook the CSATs for Arts and placed 1st in the Fujian province and entered the Fujian Normal University as a Music Education major. The music dept at the Fujian Normal Uni is #1 in China. He also got his teachers license to teach elementary and high school students.

He was allegedly chased by Yuehua entertainment for 3 long years and he refused to sign with them until he got his degree. Once he graduated, he decided to leave China and move to Korea and signed with Yuehua ent and started training with them. After spending 1 year and 3 months as a trainee, he was sent onto Boys Planet and came out winning first place (ALSO THE FIRST FOREIGNER TO WIN THE FIRST PLACE)

Aside from all this, he was also taking up so many side jobs by playing the violin at weddings and other places. So many people who hired him for the job have given him so many good reviews even BEFORE he appeared on Boys Planet. Often saying how he stole the spotlight from the actual bride and groom because of how well he played . Apparently he was so in demand that he would charge 2k to play one song.

So basically he was studying, playing the violin at marriages, teaching at schools, had vocal lessons and took up dancing as a hobby all in the span of 3 years before becoming a trainee.And what's crazy is he excels in literally everything he has done. Was a top student and was accepted easily into a top college for Science, also a top student in Arts, was super high in demand for his violin performances, and even won a survival show in a totally different country and is easily one of the most talented trainees on both the show and in ZB1.
