Wu Chun: The Romantic Prince
CONVERSATIONS With RICKY LO
His princely looks have won him quite a following, first in the chinovela
Hana Kimi The Original and now Romantic Princess, both aired on ABS-CBN. In
the latter, Wu Chun plays one of the four successors to the owner-manager of
a business empire whose granddaughter, played by Angela Zhang, falls
head-over-heels for Wu Chun.
Beyond that, not much is known about Wu Chun.
Here’s what Conversations dug up about Wu Chun:
His real name is Goh Kiat Chun, of Chinese descent, born on Oct. 10, 1979 (a
Libran), in Brunei, the youngest of three (one sister and one brother). Wu
Chun comes from a wealthy family which owns Goh Hock Kee, the distributor of
Mitsubishi in Brunei. He stands 5’10”, weighs 160 lbs., with type O blood
and lists “actor, singer and model” as his profession.
A Business Administration major from RMIT University in Melbourne, Wu Chun
speaks English, Malay (Bruneian) and three Chinese dialects (Mandarin,
Cantonese and Hokkien). He drives a Blue Subaru Impreza Hatchback which he
himself customized from the engine to the rims, including the exterior and
the interior, with a license plate that bears his birthdate.
He has three tattoos, two around his upper right arm and one on his lower
leg. He’s a big fan of Michael Jordan and he even flew to the US purposely
to watch Jordan’s last game, with a courtside seat, after which he caught a
glimpse of Jordan at his hotel.
“I love food,” he once said. “I love to eat.”
Wu Chun was a model in Singapore before he went to Taiwan where he was asked
to play the main character in the Taiwanese drama Tokyo Juliet. Hello,
stardom! He later joined the popular Taiwanese boyband Fahrenheit, the oldest
of the four members who also include Wu Chun’s Romantic Princess co-star
Calvin Chen. Prior to joining showbiz, he was a fitness instructor at his own
gym, Fitness Zone, in Brunei.
Does Wu Chun really have three children as he was quoted in an interview, one
of whom was shown with him in a picture posted on-line? It was a joke. The
kid in the picture was his nephew and the “three children” were actually
his Fahrenheit co-members whom he treats as “my children,” being younger
than he is.
A sad note: Wu Chun lost his mother a few years ago. He’s often seen wearing
a necklace with a ring on it; the ring is said to have been given to him by
his mother on her deathbed.
Here are excerpts from yesterday’s Conversations with Wu Chun and Calvin
Chen (also a member of the Fahrenheit band, along with two other guys) who
are here to promote Romantic Princess (watch them today on the ABS-CBN
noontime show ASAP 08 and on The Buzz):
What does your name mean in Chinese?
“I have to ask my father. (Laughs) Actually, my full name is Wu Chi Chun but
they asked me to drop the ‘Chi’ when I joined showbiz. Chi means fortune
and Chun means respect.”
You were born and grew up in Brunei, a very rich country. Did you live like a
prince?
(Laughs some more) “No, no, no! Many people have a misunderstanding about
Brunei. Yes, Brunei is a very rich country but it’s the King who is very
rich. Our family belongs to the middle class. We are okay.”
What was your childhood ambition?
“Kids in Brunei all want to have a business and that was also what I wanted
to have — a business of my own. They want to do something related to
business. That’s why when I went to Melbourne, I took up Business
Administration. After I graduated, I went back to Brunei and opened a health
club. I really love challenging myself in the world of business.”
How was it growing up without your mom?
“Actually, I was about 24 when I lost my mom. She was the reason why I
entered showbiz. When my mom passed away, I learned a very good lesson — not
to be afraid of anything. That’s why I faced the challenge of entering
showbiz, something I was very afraid to do before my mom died. I didn’t have
confidence in myself. Now, I have self-confidence.”
What are your fond memories of your mom?
“My mom always took good care of me. She always reminded me to be a useful
and good person.”
I’m sure she’s very happy that you have turned out to be a useful and good
person.
“Yes. I’m sure she is.”
Are you wearing the ring that your mom has given to you?
“No, I’m not.”
Why? Where is it?
“I’m keeping it in a safe because I’m afraid of losing it.”
Having come from a privileged family....
...(Laughs)...”I don’t come from a privileged family...”
But your family is the distributor of Mitsubishi cars in Brunei, isn’t it?
“It’s my uncle who is the distributor. He’s quite rich. My family is more
into another business, not really that rich.”
Oh, you’re very humble!
“No. That’s the truth. We are trying hard to make our business a success.”
If not money, what motivates you in your career?
“I think that everything I do now in showbiz is a good experience for me.
Whether I succeed or not is not important to me. What’s important is the
experience.”
With an uncle who distributes cars, you must be a car-lover.
“Yes, I am.”
Do you race?
“When I was in Melbourne, I did. I had a racing car.”
As a fitness buff, how do you take care of your body?
“Actually, the most important thing is that you must have the heart in
whatever you do, including taking care of your health. Whatever you do,
whether working out, you have to put your 100 percent. You must be careful
with what you eat. You must have focus; that’s very important.”
Aside from Michael Jordan, do you have any other role model?
“No. Only Michael Jordan. He’s the one who really influenced me. From the
time I was a kid, he has influenced me a lot. I admire his attitude toward
his game; he’s a good role model not only for me but for anybody.”
What’s your ideal girl?
“Somebody who is very simple, who is willing to share everything with me,
somebody who is understanding, somebody who is happy to be with me and with
whom I can be happy. Looks is not important. If you want to have a happy,
lasting relationship, the feeling is more important than looks.”
Do you want to have a Filipina girlfriend? You still have time to look for
one before you fly back to Taipei tomorrow.
“Let me see...Hahahahaha!”
Describe Calvin in three words.
“Very play boy. No, no, no, no, no! That’s a joke. He is clever,
hard-working and responsible.”
