Showbiz: I Sprayed Hollywood with a Water Gun, and You Call That Retirement?

Ten years ago, Longguo's first teen boy band, "The Three Princes of the Empire," debuted.

With a string of smash-hit songs composed by their leader, Lu Yuan, including "Childhood," "Love," and "Youth Training Manual," they became the gold standard for idol boy bands.

Five years later, all three members came of age and faced the challenge of reinventing themselves.

Lu Yuan, the most promising of them all, was a multi-talented leader who could compose, sing, and act. Yet on his eighteenth birthday, he suddenly announced... that he was retiring!

He left behind the words, "The world is so big. I want to go see it," and vanished from the public eye.

Ten years later, a video by an online creator titled "The Tragedy of Zhong Yong: The Childhood Idol Lu Yuan Who Disappeared" became a trending topic.

The hugely popular actress Da Mimi made a wish on a hit variety show, hoping the production team could help her find her "little brat" Lu Yuan.

Guided by a photo in a group chat of someone spraying a water gun on the beach, the show's celebrity family traveled across the ocean to Hollywood.

After seeing Lu Yuan's retired life there, Brother Teng was filled with emotion.

I was so shortsighted. So this is what retirement means!
