Last week, Zhang Zhiheng Steven was suddenly announced on social platforms for a series of sneaking scandals, which intensified, resulting in the shelving of his and Kwan Chi Bin Kenny's group BOYZ's first Red Pavilion concert.
As soon as the scandal broke, Steven, who was filming a concert promo in Phuket, sneaked back to Hong Kong to play missing, leaving Kenny alone to open a video to apologize to fans and support the overall situation, during which he choked up and burst into tears.
At noon today (29th), Guan Zhibin spoke out on the IG, expressing his gratitude for everyone's encouragement and support, and attached a solo back photo.
Earlier, Guan Zhibin was interviewed and revealed that Zhang Zhiheng had contacted him to explain the incident, although Kenny expressed understanding and understanding, but he was also very helpless about it, believing that Steven should come out to face everyone and take due responsibility. Fans also felt sorry for Guan Zhibin, suggesting that he and Zhang Jingxuan have a show, and he said that "it seems to be laughing, but I can't laugh."
Kenny is not only unhappy that the boyz concert that the two were scheduled for September has become far away, but also disappointed and sad that the good brother Steven's "dead nature" flower mood debt has ruined his own future.
In 2003, the Emperor took advantage of the momentum of the Twins to copy a similar boy group, so he let Guan Zhibin and Zhang Zhiheng form Boy'z group together, and entered the entertainment circle under the banner of "male Twins".
Boy'z's debut singing and dancing work "LALA World" is very popular, and the representative work "Dead Nature" is even more popular, and it is still a popular song in KTV. Boy'z won a number of awards ceremonies in that year, including the Gold Award for New Force in the Music Scene.
Relying on twins' fame and two youthful and childish faces, as well as the song "Dead Nature Does Not Change" that countless people have been poked by the lyrics, Boy'z debuted and became popular, gaining the likes of young girls at that time, accompanying many post-80s and 90s through their green years, becoming the youth memory of many people.
The personalities of Guan Zhibin and Zhang Zhiheng can be said to be different from each other. One is Sven's well-behaved brother who is mature and atmospheric, and the other is a careless and ignorant brother who is playful and careless by nature.
Steven, who has just debuted, does not understand human feelings and will inevitably cause some trouble, so Kenny helps clean up the mess like a big brother and takes care of this four-year-old brother.
Although sometimes the two will quarrel and even fight, the two people who make trouble treat each other as their brothers. The two people who seem to be so incompatible have spent their biggest popular days hand in hand, and have become each other's dependence on the entertainment circle of drunken fans.
In 2005, the Boy'z group suddenly disbanded, and the two brothers even learned of the breakup in the newspaper after filming an advertisement with Twins in Guangzhou. After that, Guan Zhibin went north to shoot the scene, and Zhang Zhiheng formed a trio sun boy'z with Chen Weiting and Mai Zihao.

In 2010, Kwan and Cheung Chi Heng were guests and participated in other events and performances under boy'z for Twins Everybody Bounce 2010 Concert. In July 2011, Boy'z released a new song called "Ready To Go", the first song to be reunited after five years of separation.
Although Boy'z has not officially announced its dissolution, the two have parted ways since 2012. Kenny moved to the mainland, while Steven stayed in Hong Kong and signed a contract with Wireless as its artist.
Time rushed by, they passed the age of 2 words, and Boy'z's reunion seemed to have become a luxury buried in the hearts of fans.
Guan Zhibin became popular with "The Legend of Chasing Fish" starring zhao Liying, although it did not become popular in the mainland like his disciple Chen Weiting, but he also continued to be popular and maintained high popularity. The teenager who sang "People are born not to love one of them at all" gradually grew into a more attractive mature man.
After experiencing the dissolution of the combination twice, Zhang Zhiheng floated and sank in the entertainment circle, and was deeply entangled in feelings many times, and the originally thin teenager became Uncle Fafu. Even so, people around him, including the company, did not give up on him, starred in several TVB dramas, and slowly regained popularity, and he can be seen in "Boss Morning" and "Giant Wheel II".
"Boss Morning" can now be watched on the Buried Pile APP
When everyone thought that Boy'z's glorious years had been forgotten in the long river of time, at Zhang Jingxuan's concert in June 2018, Guan Zhibin and Zhang Zhiheng were invited as guests, and the three of them sang "Dead Nature Unchanged" on the same stage, which caused the audience to scream non-stop, which was called the "Red Hall Earthquake".
This short four minutes not only brought tears to the eyes of the majority of fans, but also made Kenny and Steven, who had been on the same stage for a long time, remember the past days. Kenny wrote on IG:
"The only constant is that we will all be happy for you when you are happy, give you a reaction when you want to let go, we are all special guests in everyone's life." 」
The show also turned into the occasion for their first concert in fifteen years. Guan Zhibin saw the Emperor boss Yang Shoucheng sitting under the stage, so he quipped that he wanted to open Boy'z's concert, but he didn't expect it to really come true.
This year, Boy'z was officially renamed BOYZ.
On the occasion of the fifteenth anniversary of BOYZ, they performed on the same stage again, holding their first official concert in 15 years of their debut, with the theme of "The Unboxing Live", which means that the memories of the long-sealed box will be seen again.
In order to promote the concert, boyz also made a four-episode short film "BOYZ Living Together", which was broadcast on Kwan Chi Bin's YouTube channel.
The two brothers, who have not lived together for a long time, began to lose each other as soon as they met, and they felt that they had changed back to the hairy boy of more than ten years ago. In these short episodes of the video, the two get along easily and naturally, and from time to time they talk about a lot of past events when they debuted. Even passers-by who don't know the two will be infected by BOYZ's joyful mode of getting along and deep brotherhood when they see this video.
Steven, who was already lying in bed, was woken up by Kenny's kick in the face, and instead of getting angry, he grinned and scolded him back, which is really not something that ordinary friends can do.
The two also talked about how, when Steven, who was only 16 years old at the time, pretended to be his cousin to finish his studies, took him through the enrollment procedures, and then often received calls from Steven's teacher saying that he would not go to class.
Fifteen years is enough time for two naïve boys to grow into mature men. The two people who have experienced great ups and downs gradually found that the original dissolution was the result of their lack of maturity and hard work, and recalled that period of time not only feelings, but also gratitude.
Since last year, the interaction between the two on social platforms has increased significantly, and they will go shopping together, go grocery shopping together, go to the gym together, and rehearse together.
Kenny and Steven doubly cherished the opportunity they had and redoubled their efforts to prepare for the concert after the reunion. They seem to have returned to their debut days, very hard and happy, although they are often tired enough to fall asleep on the table.
Guan Zhibin may be a mild-mannered literary youth, but as soon as he meets the playful Zhang Zhiheng, he will become childish together and will send funny "elder emojis" on IG.
As a lifelong brother, Kenny's birthday party will also have Steven's figure.
In October 2018, they finally fulfilled the dream of their youth, opened a concert exclusive to BOYZ, and sang "Big Boy" full of fifteen years of emotion.
BOYZ was tied to Twins as soon as he debuted, and the friendship of the four of them was closely linked, becoming friends for a lifetime. Boyz's re-emergence, the happiest people also include Asa and Gillian.
At that time, those two naughty children may have disappointed many people and did not meet the requirements in everyone's mind. They invited a lot of staff who had worked with Emperor in the past, hoping to let them know that their efforts had not been in vain.
Boy'z became BOYZ, and although he grew up, he was still young. Like our youth, it has not passed away, but has entered a new stage.
He and he, like the positive and negative poles of a magnet, a gravitational force connecting their fates. They witnessed each other's most glorious moments and also experienced the lowest troughs.
But fate always seems to like to joke with people. I thought that after 16 years of precipitation, I could finally return to the peak of that year. I thought that the venue that just happened to be vacated was a gift from heaven, but I didn't expect that the dream of the Red Pavilion for many years was shattered at the door.
It turned out that only one of the two boys had grown up, and the other had not changed. Kenny became a very male charismatic man, and the playful boy Steven was still unrepentant and self-deceived.
For example, the lyrics of Boy'z's "Hands and Siblings" read: "Brothers and sisters only have two words, so there are only two knows."
Hopefully, after this incident, Steven can learn from it, become raw, take on the responsibilities of a man, and no longer live up to the expectations of fans and Kenny.
