Exactly!! People here acting like he’s problematic or cancellable are taking this way tooo seriously. He hurt no one and is just cringe in a hilarious way. Honestly salute.
Chinese netizens anger me. WHAT crime has he done? They act like he is a criminal just because he was dating and now getting married. TF is wrong with women of our generation, liking idols and actors are fine but don't be obsessed with them to the point that you take their normal relationships as a personal threat
Back when we thought Tao would be the badass member but he turned out to be a screaming hen along with Sehun, he even made Chen look insane because of the amount of whining.😂
NOT STEPHIE'S HUSBAND KNOWING THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF EXO CHINESE MEMBERS 😭😭🤣🤣🤣. "when they all 3 came back to China" "there were 4, Actually" 💀💀💀 it was delivered in such Matter of fact way that I feel like he was an EXO Stan at some point in time
Maybe because EXO is really BIG in China. They may not be famous in the west as how other groups right now, but they do in China...until now...and Mr. Mangobutt is Chinese sooo 💁
He really is. The way he sashayed down that runway like a model to his seat tho! He did that😂 He looked amazing and the opportunity was there soooo.....haha I probably would have been tempted to do the same if I came in looking fire like him🤷🏾♀😄
That happened to Chen a Korean EXO member (when the Chinese members were still in the group they were in the Chinese subunit ) they protested to kick him out when it came out he was going to marry his gf of 5 years. He has two children now and he is still in the group but people are still so maad. But wouldnt they rather a family man over like ….kris?
Boggles my mind too. Like, with all these news of SK men being sex-starved, chauvanistic spawn of satan, shouldn't these fangirls be happy that a loyal, sincere and respectful man exist?! Chen is even one of the members who never once feeds on the fans' delulu!! I don't get it! And they still sadly hates on him even after all these years.
The fact Chen got hated on simply because he refused to get away from his responsibility of getting his gf pregnant and not running away from his fatherhood.
STEPH U DIDNT INCLUDE THAT THEY’re getting married!!!! he proposed to her on the last episode of that show!!! its probably why he waited so long to announce they’re dating officially when everyone knew… he wanted to announce their marraige
I FUCKING REMEMBER WHEN TAO WENT VIRAL FOR THAT CHEATING VIDEO LMAOOO. when he ranted against the cheather gf/bf he drank some tea, right? someone said in the comment "the more he drinks those tea the angrier he bcomes" LMAO THAT'S JUST SO FUNNY
I think it's probably hard to stand up to your fans. Fans can really destroy you. I just heard about Riize Hong Seung-han. They sent a wreath to his agency company because an old picture of him and his ex-girlfriend resurfaced AND him smoking cigarettes. They are demanding him to leave the group😮
The way he met his girlfriend or wife is pretty concerning simply due to their age gaps as he was legal however she was not. While we don't know any technicalities, from the outside perspective, Luhan can easily be seen as a groomer or predator due to this. He also had some problems with alcohol if I remember correctly. Depending on what happens it may be large enough to go past just the Chinese news sites.
@@zeroseblooms didn't they met when both are of legal age? if i remember correctly, they announced their relationship on 2017 and his wife was probably 20 by then? Well however we see it, we aren't in any position to judge them especially since both party don't mind it.
I thought they met when Guan ( the gf ) was 20 and when Luhan is 27? I did hear something along the lines of they’ve been dating for 7 years and everyone is like when is luhan going to propose etc….
Tao wasn’t treated very well by SM, so Idk why people are mad he left EXO after Kris. They made him perform with serious injuries without going to the hospital, and he had a difficult time learning Korean while being a trainee.
It was less about him leaving for people and more about him trashing Kris for leaving, then doing it himself months later. He had every right to leave.
@@briasandifer210 he actually trashed Kris for leaving because he didn't give any prior notice and exo held their first concert where they practised and he left
ngl i LOVE it when idols have boundries and reinforce them. Tao and Minghao (SVT) are so real for not feeding people's delulu. They aren't cruel about it, they are just realistic.
Tao’s got that wild, unpredictable energy where he could end up in the most absurd scandal-like getting banned from a library for dancing on the tables-and no one would even question it. You’d just shrug and say, 'Well, it’s Zhang Zitao, what did you expect?'
mans was in the practice room a few days after kris left, singing into the mic and crying cause he knows fans were outside only to leave after a few months himself like bffr
I always saw it as him seriously being hurt at first. But then thinking about it for a while and seeing how in a way Kris was actually right (not that he’s right now) and took off. SM are notorious to being bad to their foreign members. It’s only after the exodus that the situation somehow improved.
I was so depressed. Just been feeling so numb lately and couldn't shake it off, but right now I'm smiling! This video made me happy! Maybe I'll be able to sleep now. It's almost 3:30 in the morning. Thank you Steph and Mr Panda! You two have the cutest relationship!
what a genius way of not losing 3 million fans and still having the relationship. This is a toxic fandom problem. Let your idols love and they don't have to do stuff like this.
There’s a meme when he an idol in Korea and the caption of was of what he was saying was “I can’t express my emotions” but the way he pronounced it in Korean made it sound like “ I can’t express my potato”
Honestly people might hate on tao but personally I just think he’s really really really REALLY strange and like honestly I’m kinda here for it like yeah he’s kinda obnoxious but it’s pretty funny tbh also I’m happy for him and yiyang good for them
I mean way better than someone who puts on a mask and do shady stuff behind lol But I always found Tao to be some sort of a neurodivergent from his exo days. Maybe thats the case?
33:10 i will never not watch that clip because it only gets funnier 😭 and when you notice how he keeps bringing the cup up to his lips but never takes a sip AND HE GETS PROGRESSIVELY ANGRIER EACH TIME 😭
I now remember how much I enjoyed watching Tao's childish angry outbursts when he was in Exo. He was so innocent and unfiltered that I laughed so much every time. He doesn't care even when he looks stupid, though he would complain about it if you say it. But I also think it was a safe decision to announce it when he was not at his peak because who knows how the girl would be treated by crazy fans if he announced it officially then. I hope the best for them, I wish they stay together happily. ❤
I've always agreed with Tao when he called out people in his livestreams about being delulus lol, I don't understand why some (or rather MOST-) Chinese fans of idols were angry at him for that
also I knew that the dating news was gonna come out sooner or later, ever since I saw the paparazzi photo of Yiyang going to dinner with Tao and his mom, I can see he would want to protect her tho, since ppl would get a power imbalance feeling if they announced it when she was still a trainee, but these years she's been acting in some dramas as an actress their statuses wouldn't get that much hate (which in of itself is another red flag that she would get hate at all but still)
It's s so refreshing that Stephanie talks about things that are kind of funny and lighthearted. I'm usually used to listen to her serious stuffs. I love this one so new to me!
He's an icon. Never takes shit from people. His advice to a fan suffering from a breakup still makes me LOL. A breath of fresh air in the industry actually because asian netizens can be quite a handful.
I was worried that there would be some kind of bad scandalous news about him when I saw the title bc I've only seen him be a dramatic goob and I'm glad that he's still a dramatic goob that seems to be in love. I wish them the best! 💜💜💜💜 I think he's hilarious😊
Tao is purely an emotional person and there’s nothing wrong with that. Maybe he can learn a thing or two about emotional management 😅 but overall, he has a good heart & has strong feelings with his opinions 😆
im crying cause just yesterday i was watching a vide of him and that girl and shipping them😂 i then scroll to the comments to find out they’re actually MARRIED??
Hi Steph. My best friend recommended your channel as I’m battling with depression for almost 2 months now. I started enjoying your videos. God bless you. 🫶🏼
Also the 2nd Chinese drama I saw was…the brightest start in the sky (he’s the male lead), I didn’t realize until now that his character was actually him in real life. Lol
Hes got no filter, and has a very bubbly personality. I love him so much! Man I wish I had like 1 million out of all his billions lol this widow single mom life is hard!
I think I'm starting to really like him after this. I think it's great that he's been in a stable long-term relationship. And also, this whole thing feels like he's been taking the long route to desensitize netizens and fans to his relationship and help soften the blow on Yiyang by acting as the weirdo (tbf he sounds like a bit of a natural weirdo in a good way 😂)
No one has ever suggested that he creates a patented product, whether it is a household item or make up, and sell it? He obviously is a very good salesman/endorser.
as someone who has been an exo fan for 12 years and was absolutely obsessed with tao because of all of the things you mentioned, i love this. i hope they're happy and that they last.
Girl I knew they were dating ever since yiyang was in chuang 2020. Even after it was like extremely obvious like I was suprised they(specially tao) were still denying it. Honestly happy for them and hopefully they are happy together, the look so cute together and have amazing chemistry. Also side note yiyang was robbed in chuand 2020 which she was rigged out of the lineup in favor of another traine, if you know you know.
@@raincandy3I know I actually got so sad when she got eliminated, like that was basically her last true chance to make into a girl group which was her dream. I know that it was proven she ranked 7 and made it into the line up but it was still sad😭
People are surprised they denied it? :ooo I mean Chinese fans seem a bit more chill about idols and celebrities dating, but it’s still Asia haha. With the way Korean fans react to kpop dating rumours, it does seem like Asian celebrities try to keep their personal life out of the limelight.
What i know about people with Tao's personality are always the most genuine, caring and kind hearted people despite appearing like arrogant and disrespectful. I love him so much.
One thing I realized by all this information about his life is that his “Brightest star in the sky” drama is definitely based on him and his girlfriend’s story 😭 The drama’s storyline is almost like his own reality and even the personality of the main characters in drama are like his real self and his girlfriend.
tbh as long as he didnt do anything illegal im happy for him i was annoyed that he denied it for so long even though he was publicly showing their relationship but its not my life do what makes u happy I wish in the future more fans will be accepting of idols dating but I know that'll never happen
I don't really know why this is a big deal tho. I'm also annoyed that he's been denying it, but in China, a lot of celebrities be denying it and some only come out clean after the relationship is over; denial is pretty much the norm, so, I don't understand why it's a big deal when Tao is doing it.
Real fans know why he did. The Kpop industry is notoriously strict about idols dating because of the fans. He probably thought, or the sake of his career, it is better to deny than admit.
@@ArianaLee7890 I think its only a big deal because tao visibly was displaying it other ppl will deny and you will never see them with that person again until either they get married or u never hear about it again
@@GraceW-jx3ll I agree! Idols or celebrities don’t owe is fans any response or statement in regards with anything that goes within their private lives. Like let them be especially he’s not harming anyone or doing anything bad
@@kelseya2802She has a video about this on her channel. I don't really recall, but it had something to do with what she was eating. Feel free to correct me though.
I never noticed the orange hands until she mentioned it, but once she did I was like, oh her skin undertone is just 🍊! and every time I see her nose, I notice it’s orange too.
I’m not into kpop so I didn’t know him. But I’ve been watching cdrams lately and I don’t get what the hype is about ztao. But after watching this, I kinda start to like him.
@@rhythmsofhearts I’ve watched it as I’m a fan of Lareina Song. Didn’t like him though. Couldn’t understand why he was characterized as a heartthrob. Maybe if I rewatch it, I’d see him in a different light.
@@hopequen8534 hey just realised, Stephenie can cover song zuer as well from child actress to flirting with co stars to blacklisted for taxes. What do you think?
Stephanie is serving with looks, timing and tea 🤩 How does she always have perfect timing?? I just got home from work and I’m ready to eat while watching this 🍵
I've been an EXO-L for 12 years now so I've really seen this guy all around and to have Tao land on Stephanie's radar is hilarious. He's always been funny and even when he left EXO, he's been all over the world wide web being even more funny and a mood. 🤣🤣
6:25 he literally is the CHARACTER( A RAPPER AND SINGER ) HE PLAYED IN " THE BRIGHTEST STAR IN THE SKY" ! in that show ,his assistants would keep quitting because he didn't listen to them and kept " exposing " stuff online but then a girl who initially wanted to be a singer became his assistant and made him a better person and singer and later they started dating IN THE SHOW... and he seems soooooo in love with his now wifeee so lets hope for a happy ending here too!!
@epic7224 do you know this to be true? Because him and his team threatened to sue, and the person who started this false claim apologized immediately after
See this is why I do not get crazy fans. Just because an idol kept part of their life private away from fans, fans thinks they get the chance to date their idol. Like grow up. Respect their privacy for once. Also I support every idols who’s married and happy. So be happy and be respectful for them. Plus a game is just a game. So grow up and get a life crazy fans.
i think Tao got traumatized few years ago in baekhyun and taeyeon dating scandal. He witnessed how toxic the fans in both baekhyun ang taeyeon☹️leading Taeyeon apologizing to her fan for being inlove😢😢
Idk but Tao walking through the runway was legendary af and so funny 😭 and he did look like one of the models how did I not hear about that, I feel like he is just socially awkward and not a bad person
26:57 During his K-POP days in South Korea and just on Twitter, there were A LOT of meme worthy like frames and moments from the variety shows, random videos, etc of him (with or without the EXO members) because his personality and his expressions are just super entertaining. Also regarding her saying she thought his image in SK and CN was very different, I think it's because I was just very involved and immersed as I was an EXO-L but he was actually goofy as fawk before too, when he performs he's different ofc, but his personality was the same, if not just a tad toned down. In EXO Showtime, he was known as someone who enjoys luxury, someone quite goofy, and a bit of like a funny boyfailure member.
@@Tooba-K123i wish that they still had the introduction to exo members video. Bc it was so perfect. My favorite one was xiumin being peak evolution of man.
rather than trying to keep the idol image or keeping the fans, i think he’s just a comedian. come to think of it, it gave them both freedom to date because its so ridiculous that people dont care anymore that he’s dating
tao was my first exo bias and i used to watch exo showtime every week just to watch him have meltdowns lol he has always been a DIVA, but after he left exo i kinda fell out of the loop so its nice to see he is doing well and with a pretty girl. as obnoxious as he can be, i think hes worked very hard and deserves good things.
when Yiyang dissed her boss (Tao) on that 2020 show, I already knew something was going on. specially when he just laughed at it and didn't get mad. The thing about Tao is that he's a boss but not the smart type... he's the emotional type. he's a show off but doesn't get ticked off when people say crap about him. the only time he gets ticked off is because of somebody he cares. even someone he remotely cares, or cares 0.01%, he blows up. so of course he will go emotional, hysterical, etc... when Yiyang is concerned.
this is the funniest episode you’ve ever posted, perfect for the funniest man to have ever existed 😂😂😂 as a exol im so glad more people know about the enigma that is huang zitao
Been a fan of Yiyang since she was introduced as smrookies in 2016 along with aespa's ningning, left SM in 2017, joining Tao's agency, appearing in survival show then another survival show, web dramas then soon to be bride. Tao should be thanking Luhan cus Ying want to be an idol after saw idol Luhan
My favourite! One and only ! I have watched Stephanie before she even had 100 subs 🥺so proud of you girl! It is amazing how i am growing and still watches you! Till the enddd
I have always loved Tao 😂 since my exo-L’s (exotics for the oldies) days 😂 This man is such a meme, I’m not even surprised, he has always been like that 😆 Born to be a comedian

exactly like I was jsut sbt to take a shower 😂
It's s so refreshing that Stephanie talks about things that are kind of funny and lighthearted. I'm usually used to listen to her serious stuffs. I love this one so new to me!
He's an icon. Never takes shit from people. His advice to a fan suffering from a breakup still makes me LOL. A breath of fresh air in the industry actually because asian netizens can be quite a handful.
I was worried that there would be some kind of bad scandalous news about him when I saw the title bc I've only seen him be a dramatic goob and I'm glad that he's still a dramatic goob that seems to be in love. I wish them the best! 💜💜💜💜 I think he's hilarious😊
As a Tao bias, I actually came here expecting to be offended by this episode hahahahhaha boi WAS I ENTERTAINED🤣🤣🤣 loved the boy even more
Made it 100

Hello fellow hailang 😂
I’d never thought Stephanie would do a video about zitao
Even meee😂
Fr
I figured it was only a matter of time lol idk why you didn't
She just needs to do a video about Lu Han and the EXODUS will be completed.
@@PiyokoElric and lay! (edit: wait nvm i don't think he has any major scandals lol)
Tao’s “I won’t go die easily!” is giving the same vibes as “Welcome to die!” and “All your base are belong to us.”. 😂🤣
how is he so unintentionally funny i am hollering every time his clips come on
He's brilliant at trying to stay relevant and keeping people talking about him. He's great at his job. Being an entertainer.
Guy wears two watches and is still always late that is wild.
His cheating comment did in fact make me warm up to him. EQUALITY!
I think most Chinese idol has sarcasm from minghao 17, chenle, renjun, nct, zhang hao & ricky zb1, yuqi, suahua gidle.
Isnt shuhua japanese?
@@rui96_ No shes actually from Taiwan
i love chenle's humor sm
“Do you speak chinese?” “OfC I sPeaK cHiNEse I’M CHINESE”
What’s minghao 17?
Tao is purely an emotional person and there’s nothing wrong with that. Maybe he can learn a thing or two about emotional management 😅 but overall, he has a good heart & has strong feelings with his opinions 😆
I can see why Sehun loved Tao, dude is hilarious!😂😂😂
37:09 “YOU CANT EAT THE POT” 😂😂😂😂 That got me cracking up 😭😭😭
I love Tao! He’s so funny. I enjoy his talk shows. He’s not afraid of criticism, and he gives really good feedback. This side of him is news to me. 😅
im crying cause just yesterday i was watching a vide of him and that girl and shipping them😂 i then scroll to the comments to find out they’re actually MARRIED??
Soon to be! They just got engaged
Watching Yiyang roasting Tao, her literal boss on the survival show and then them ending up together is peak drama material
Hi Steph. My best friend recommended your channel as I’m battling with depression for almost 2 months now. I started enjoying your videos. God bless you. 🫶🏼
he's so unhinged and true to himself, even when he was in EXO. always have a special place in my heart haha
Ikr 😂😂 he was my bias then (along with Kris unfortunately lol) and I'm still a huge fan of Tao.
Also the 2nd Chinese drama I saw was…the brightest start in the sky (he’s the male lead), I didn’t realize until now that his character was actually him in real life. Lol
Now that you mentioned it I kinda see it😂😂😂my man was just being himself
@@tsikonemalale1695 and i still do a rewatch of it once a year.
That's what I was thinking😂
The brightest star in the sky is basically his whole life story 😂 he was just playing himself.
That’s is Real! Hahahaha they didn’t even flinch or hold back.😂
Tao is an empath. Hence why when he's angry, he's mad mad. If he's emotional, he will cry a lot. Tao is a total mood😂
he’s just like us fr 😭
@@slowburn2948 exactly 🫠
It's Chinaverse; powered by Wang Sicong, brought to you by Stephanie Soo
😂😂😂
Hes got no filter, and has a very bubbly personality. I love him so much! Man I wish I had like 1 million out of all his billions lol this widow single mom life is hard!
I think I'm starting to really like him after this. I think it's great that he's been in a stable long-term relationship. And also, this whole thing feels like he's been taking the long route to desensitize netizens and fans to his relationship and help soften the blow on Yiyang by acting as the weirdo (tbf he sounds like a bit of a natural weirdo in a good way 😂)
Is it ever a chinaverse video without the "disciplinary committee of the entertainment industry" Wang Si tong being mentioned 😂
Ain’t that the owl from avatar 😭
No one has ever suggested that he creates a patented product, whether it is a household item or make up, and sell it? He obviously is a very good salesman/endorser.
This was entertaining and lighthearted rather than the usual drama of the Chinaverse. A nice change of pace😂❤
as someone who has been an exo fan for 12 years and was absolutely obsessed with tao because of all of the things you mentioned, i love this. i hope they're happy and that they last.
Girl I knew they were dating ever since yiyang was in chuang 2020. Even after it was like extremely obvious like I was suprised they(specially tao) were still denying it. Honestly happy for them and hopefully they are happy together, the look so cute together and have amazing chemistry. Also side note yiyang was robbed in chuand 2020 which she was rigged out of the lineup in favor of another traine, if you know you know.
She was my favorite! She's actually so talented and funny
@@raincandy3I know I actually got so sad when she got eliminated, like that was basically her last true chance to make into a girl group which was her dream. I know that it was proven she ranked 7 and made it into the line up but it was still sad😭
Wait was she actually rigged out? 😭 and not to be shady, but was she rigged out for Zhang Yifan…?
Tell me which one of the trainees
People are surprised they denied it? :ooo
I mean Chinese fans seem a bit more chill about idols and celebrities dating, but it’s still Asia haha. With the way Korean fans react to kpop dating rumours, it does seem like Asian celebrities try to keep their personal life out of the limelight.
I can't breathe 😂😂😂 I started loving him the minute you got to the livestream selling ramen. 😂😂
What i know about people with Tao's personality are always the most genuine, caring and kind hearted people despite appearing like arrogant and disrespectful. I love him so much.
Wang Sicong is always at the crime scene 😭
One thing I realized by all this information about his life is that his “Brightest star in the sky” drama is definitely based on him and his girlfriend’s story 😭
The drama’s storyline is almost like his own reality and even the personality of the main characters in drama are like his real self and his girlfriend.
Exactlyyyy
tbh as long as he didnt do anything illegal im happy for him i was annoyed that he denied it for so long even though he was publicly showing their relationship but its not my life do what makes u happy I wish in the future more fans will be accepting of idols dating but I know that'll never happen
I don't really know why this is a big deal tho. I'm also annoyed that he's been denying it, but in China, a lot of celebrities be denying it and some only come out clean after the relationship is over; denial is pretty much the norm, so, I don't understand why it's a big deal when Tao is doing it.
Real fans know why he did. The Kpop industry is notoriously strict about idols dating because of the fans. He probably thought, or the sake of his career, it is better to deny than admit.
@@ArianaLee7890 I think its only a big deal because tao visibly was displaying it other ppl will deny and you will never see them with that person again until either they get married or u never hear about it again
Why would you be annoyed about denying his dating life….its his privacy…I’m more annoyed at people who think they deserve a response
@@GraceW-jx3ll I agree! Idols or celebrities don’t owe is fans any response or statement in regards with anything that goes within their private lives. Like let them be especially he’s not harming anyone or doing anything bad
NEXT is Luhan or Lay? Stephanie is really covering all of exo at this point !!!!
What’d he do
What? Why? What happened?
@@multistanncr I think luhan is getting married
wait what did he do? the only reason people throw hate at him was because of his relationship
@@nalee4189 omg really?!?!?!
Every time Stephanie's orange hands pops up in frame (which is a lot 😂) I get so sidetracked looking at her BRIGHT orange hands lol 😂
But for real why are they orange 😂
@@kelseya2802She has a video about this on her channel. I don't really recall, but it had something to do with what she was eating. Feel free to correct me though.
@@kelseya2802 it's cuz she love carrots lol 😂 eating too much carrot turns your hands orange
@@kelseya2802 apparently she eats a ton of carrots 🥕
I never noticed the orange hands until she mentioned it, but once she did I was like, oh her skin undertone is just 🍊! and every time I see her nose, I notice it’s orange too.
yiyang gives a cool big sis vibe that will fight back for u, i love her sm
dude's legit living his own drama's love life😭😭😭😭 (I'm talking about the c-drama a brightest star in the sky)
I’m not into kpop so I didn’t know him. But I’ve been watching cdrams lately and I don’t get what the hype is about ztao. But after watching this, I kinda start to like him.
I liked him in a couple of cdramas. That’s where I know him from
he is funny af
Legally romance, you can see bits of his irl personality (✖﹏✖)
@@rhythmsofhearts I’ve watched it as I’m a fan of Lareina Song. Didn’t like him though. Couldn’t understand why he was characterized as a heartthrob. Maybe if I rewatch it, I’d see him in a different light.
@@hopequen8534 hey just realised, Stephenie can cover song zuer as well from child actress to flirting with co stars to blacklisted for taxes. What do you think?
Stephanie is serving with looks, timing and tea 🤩
How does she always have perfect timing?? I just got home from work and I’m ready to eat while watching this 🍵
Never in a million years would I expect Stephanie to cover HUANG ZITAO omg
(I'm deep in the Chinaverse and I'm glad now yall are getting there too)
I've been an EXO-L for 12 years now so I've really seen this guy all around and to have Tao land on Stephanie's radar is hilarious. He's always been funny and even when he left EXO, he's been all over the world wide web being even more funny and a mood. 🤣🤣
We are exo-l grannies 👵
I love these, it feels like you're just gossiping with friends 😂
6:25 he literally is the CHARACTER( A RAPPER AND SINGER ) HE PLAYED IN " THE BRIGHTEST STAR IN THE SKY" ! in that show ,his assistants would keep quitting because he didn't listen to them and kept " exposing " stuff online but then a girl who initially wanted to be a singer became his assistant and made him a better person and singer and later they started dating IN THE SHOW... and he seems soooooo in love with his now wifeee so lets hope for a happy ending here too!!
His whole life is a Cdrama 😂

@NurCak super funny! Martin Garrix situation aside, Zitao is hilarious 😂
Lay cheated on his gf, I'd rather thus 😂
@epic7224 do you know this to be true? Because him and his team threatened to sue, and the person who started this false claim apologized immediately after
@@epic7224
Or Lay turn his fans scenarios on FFN site into reality?
Well, but maybe it's for another parallel universe.
😂😂😂
See this is why I do not get crazy fans. Just because an idol kept part of their life private away from fans, fans thinks they get the chance to date their idol. Like grow up. Respect their privacy for once. Also I support every idols who’s married and happy. So be happy and be respectful for them. Plus a game is just a game. So grow up and get a life crazy fans.
i think Tao got traumatized few years ago in baekhyun and taeyeon dating scandal. He witnessed how toxic the fans in both baekhyun ang taeyeon☹️leading Taeyeon apologizing to her fan for being inlove😢😢
Idk but Tao walking through the runway was legendary af and so funny 😭 and he did look like one of the models how did I not hear about that, I feel like he is just socially awkward and not a bad person
Cursing Martin Garrix so hard for something he isn't aware of is CRAAAAZY 😂 Our guy Tao needs to chill.
To be fair it was an educated guess. Both of them were kept in the dark by the organizers of the event.
26:57 During his K-POP days in South Korea and just on Twitter, there were A LOT of meme worthy like frames and moments from the variety shows, random videos, etc of him (with or without the EXO members) because his personality and his expressions are just super entertaining.
Also regarding her saying she thought his image in SK and CN was very different, I think it's because I was just very involved and immersed as I was an EXO-L but he was actually goofy as fawk before too, when he performs he's different ofc, but his personality was the same, if not just a tad toned down. In EXO Showtime, he was known as someone who enjoys luxury, someone quite goofy, and a bit of like a funny boyfailure member.
He's quite the same honestly, he just can curse now 😂😂
do you remember exosexo
@@sonailee3619 Exosexo was everyone's guilty pleasure 😂
@@sonailee3619you lit up my brain reminding me of that
@@Tooba-K123i wish that they still had the introduction to exo members video. Bc it was so perfect. My favorite one was xiumin being peak evolution of man.
rather than trying to keep the idol image or keeping the fans, i think he’s just a comedian. come to think of it, it gave them both freedom to date because its so ridiculous that people dont care anymore that he’s dating
tao was my first exo bias and i used to watch exo showtime every week just to watch him have meltdowns lol he has always been a DIVA, but after he left exo i kinda fell out of the loop so its nice to see he is doing well and with a pretty girl. as obnoxious as he can be, i think hes worked very hard and deserves good things.
when Yiyang dissed her boss (Tao) on that 2020 show, I already knew something was going on. specially when he just laughed at it and didn't get mad. The thing about Tao is that he's a boss but not the smart type... he's the emotional type. he's a show off but doesn't get ticked off when people say crap about him. the only time he gets ticked off is because of somebody he cares. even someone he remotely cares, or cares 0.01%, he blows up. so of course he will go emotional, hysterical, etc... when Yiyang is concerned.
as a fan of exo in 2013 i was flabbergasted seeing tao in the thumbnail 😫
33:10 he looks like the bff who will always be by your side tbh!❤😭
MANNN i always loved tao cuz of how memeable and weird he is. So happy Stephanie found out about Tao 😂😂
this is the funniest episode you’ve ever posted, perfect for the funniest man to have ever existed 😂😂😂 as a exol im so glad more people know about the enigma that is huang zitao
I just love how genuine, childish, honest and dramatic he is😂❤
Been a fan of Yiyang since she was introduced as smrookies in 2016 along with aespa's ningning, left SM in 2017, joining Tao's agency, appearing in survival show then another survival show, web dramas then soon to be bride. Tao should be thanking Luhan cus Ying want to be an idol after saw idol Luhan

As an EXO-L girl I’m thriving. I love this so much
My favourite! One and only ! I have watched Stephanie before she even had 100 subs 🥺so proud of you girl! It is amazing how i am growing and still watches you! Till the enddd
He deserves anything.... I'm happy with his relationship with yiyang. He's thriving right now and I hope the beat ever for him❤
Hey Steph, I know it's off topic but just wondering if you're gonna cover the whole Diddy case. Love your videos btw💙
I am sure an RM episode is in the making. Maybe they are waiting for the trial to begin so we’ll get muuuuch more info
@@ourhaven I hope soo this case is all I think about the last couple days
