Thirdly: Tao’s totally different attitude towards Wu Yifan before and after the lawsuit.
Tao used to say he considered Wu Yifan as his goal for when he turns 22. But he was the first one to unfollow Wu Yifan on both Weibo and Instagram after the lawsuit was filed, and he also made several Weibo and Instagram posts insinuating Wu Yifan’s “betrayal”, which brought up negative emotions among the fans and drove them to personally attack Wu Yifan and even his family. At first, everyone believed that Tao’s Instagram and Weibo were under the control of a manager, but then some of his fans found his status update on KakaoTalk which proved that those comments were truly from him. Tao also liked two Weibo posts by fans. The last sentence of one went like this: “Hope that the drama you’re filming in mainland China won’t be gross enough to get us sick.” Here I only stated what happened as a fact. I do not want to criticize anyone’s perspective. What I want to make clear is that the content of the article written by the Tao fan is based on her subjective reasoning and has mislead readers to a place that is far away from the truth.
