He was a very influential singer in the late 1980s and early 1990s, singing songs such as "Young Cheers" and "I Quietly BlindfoldEd You". But at his peak, he chose to quit the music scene. After years of silence, it has become the focus of attention because of the drug scandal. He is the famous singer Gao Mingjun.
Born in Myanmar, Gao Mingjun came to Taiwan at the age of 18, released his debut solo album "Young Cheers" in 1988 and became a hit, and then successively released nine albums such as "I Am Alone in the Wind and Rain" and "Jungle Boy", one of which "I Quietly Blindfold Your Eyes" has become a household classic. Later, due to dissatisfaction with the current situation of the music industry, in 1992 Gao Mingjun chose to bid farewell to the music scene.
During the time when he retired from the music scene, Gao Mingjun moved from Taipei to Beijing and started a restaurant business, but he never gave up his music career. In 2003, he returned to the music scene with a song "Home Now", and later released songs such as "On the Side of the Water", but they were tepid, and compared with the scenery of that year, they were no longer the same, and the audience's impression of him was still mostly stuck in the stage of "Young Cheers".
But in 2010, Mr. Gao once again made headlines, only this time not because of his songs, but because he was caught by Beijing police for drug use. At that time, insiders reported that his arrest was confessed by the Manchu Army who had previously had an accident. Although he later came out of the trough and released the singles "Time on the Road" and "Spring Love", it was only a flash in the pan, and there were no more living works.
It is worth mentioning that Gao Mingjun's wife is a close friend of singer Chen Lin, and is also the first person to find out that Chen Lin has suicidal tendencies, in those two days, Gao Mingjun's wife has been advising Chen Lin, and on the morning of Chen Lin's suicide, the three of them also shared breakfast in Gao Mingjun's apartment, but that night, Chen Lin jumped to his death in the downstairs room of Gao Mingjun's studio. As for the topic of Chen Lin's death, no matter what tricks the media exhausted, Gao Mingjun never said a word.
Today, Gao Mingjun concentrates on running his own restaurant, rarely appearing in public except for occasionally showing his face on the show.
