In an interview with SINA, Tao's father had some updated news as he allegedly said on the 23rd, "Tao has ultimately agreed to leave. The main reason is due to his filiality... My son's treatment is the first priority, and as for the rest, that's something Tao will have to think about and make his choice."
His father stressed that the biggest reason for him wanting his son to leave is for his health and peace of mind. "For three years after his debut, Tao appeared on many programs that held a risk to harm his health. My heart hurt seeing that the agency did not properly take care of my son's injuries each time."
