1/ First I will summarize major stage-related shows where chinese musician and idol #zhouzhennan#周震南 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhou_Zhen…) has appeared since his debut in 2017, and where to watch them (content translated from various chinese websites). Pls retweet💖
2/ Although the details are not clearly known, Zhennan first took music and dance lessons in China and at around age 15 also briefly trained overseas in Korea (rumored pre-JYP). This seems to be how he met artists such as #the8, #jacksonwang, and #R1SE#Yaochen.
3/ He made his debut at the age of 17 when he placed fourth on the first edition of The Coming One (明日之子): This season was also famous for its champion #Maobuyi and for having a (shady) robot contestant, He-Z.
4/ His first variety show after this was Let Go of My Baby 放开我北鼻 S3 (wetv.vip/en/play/8jyxkc…). In 2021 he would go on to collaborate with one of the "babies" from the show, Hailin, on the stage of #R1SE Never Surrender. #JacksonWang was also present.
5/ A year later (summer 2018) he joined Chaoyin Zhan Ji (潮音战纪), a stage battle show where he teamed up with #Produce101 contestant Samuel Kim to win the championship (). Other notable contestants included #SEVENTEEN The8 and Jun.
6/ He was now considered to be taking the original musician route. This was why many were surprised when he appeared in #Chuang2019 (). However, he consistently took first place, becoming #R1SE center and captain at 18.
6/ Together, #R1SE participated in the Kingdom style battle show We are Blazing () in the summer of 2020.
7/ Simultaneously, Zhennan returned to the survival show where he debuted, serving as a trainee mentor on #明日之子 SUPERBAND (). The two shows were conveniently filmed next door to each other.
8/8 This year at the age of 20, he served as mentor on #Chuang2021 (wetv.vip/en/play/rcravd…) which debuted the international team #INTO1. Currently, he and #R1SE are preparing for the disbandment next month.
