Yu Gengyin admitted frankly that when he participated in the talent show for the first time, he understood the rule that idols can't fall in love at will, but he didn't admit the existence of a girlfriend at the time.
After terminating his contract with his former company and setting up his own studio, Yu gradually realized the vastness of the world, and he felt that he was just one of many talented people. His career did not succeed as he wished, and he didn't think much about other emotional things, he just hoped to be able to make a difference and break out of his own world, "But after all, he and the girl are people in the same place, and their families, classmates, and friends on both sides also know each other, and they have not completely broken off contact over the years, until there was an accident and they had a baby."
When he learned that the woman had a child, Yu Gengyin's first reaction was to be overwhelmed, but he thought more that the baby was innocent, and no matter what, the child could not be deprived of the right to come to the world, "So, in the second half of the Year of the Tiger, a pair of premature twin babies were born, and I also became a father."

Yu Gengyin admitted frankly that as an idol, such a thing as having a child does not meet the expectations of fans for idols, "I admit that there is still a fluke mentality, and I always feel that if it is not made public, the baby and work will not be mixed together, and they can go hand in hand." He also mentioned that due to the long-term separation from the woman, and marriage is not only a matter of two people, but also a run-in of two families, so before things are stable, he and the child's mother temporarily fulfill their responsibilities in the name of their parents.
Yu Gengyin also apologized to all fans who knew him, and said that because of a moment of cowardice and concealment, he betrayed everyone's trust in him, "I know that explanations and apologies are pale, but as the notes say, even if everyone chooses to leave in the end, I should give everyone an explanation."

[Yu Gengyin's full text]
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Xiaoyu, and this letter came a little late, but this is the explanation I promised you to give in person, and it is also a review of my somewhat bad personal life over the years.
After participating in the show for the first time, I knew that celebrities in idol mode could not fall in love at will, but I didn't admit the existence of a girlfriend at the time.
With the termination of the contract with the former company and the establishment of my own studio, I slowly realized that the world is too big, compared with the really talented and capable people, I am just the dust in the dust, and I am not successful in my career, and I don't think much about other emotional things, I just hope to be able to compete and break out of my own world. But after all, the girl is a person in the same place, and both families, classmates, and friends also know each other, and they have not completely broken off contact over the years, until there was an accident and a baby.
When I knew that I had a baby, I was at a loss for the first time, but more often I felt that the baby was innocent, and the baby should not be deprived of the qualification to come to the world no matter what. So, in the second half of the Year of the Tiger, a pair of premature twin babies were born, and I became a father as well.
As an artist who has participated in idol groups and talent shows, and as I get older, I already know that giving birth to a child is not in line with the idol standards in the hearts of fans, and there is no public thing about having a baby, I admit that there is still a fluke mentality, I always feel that if it is not public, the baby and work will not be mixed together, and they can go hand in hand.
Due to the long-term separation of many places, and the fact that marriage is not only a matter of two people, but also requires the run-in of two families, before it is stable, my baby's mother and I will temporarily take the baby's parents to fulfill their responsibilities.
For the notes that have known me for eight or nine years, three or four years, or one or two years, I would like to solemnly say to you again: I'm sorry.
Because of a moment of cowardice and concealment, I have failed to live up to everyone's unconditional trust in me. I know that explanations and apologies are pale, but as the notes say, even if everyone chooses to leave in the end, I should give everyone an explanation.
After saying this, the feelings of apology and sadness are still in my heart, on the one hand, I am afraid that the response again will cause more uproar because of different interpretations. But when it really came time to face you, I couldn't keep my mouth shut, so I'll reply to you with this letter. The whole thing is like this, making things so bad, I don't expect more forgiveness, I just want to tell you that Xiaoyu is still that Xiaoyu, and he hasn't changed his original intention.
