Moderator Baozi 1,658 Posted September 4, 2018 Moderator Share Posted September 4, 2018 Tzuyu Dating Ban Soon To End www.VHLHockeyNews.com Your first thought is. Dating ban? What dating ban? Well little known to the rest of the world since is that many of the entertainment groups in Asia typically include “no dating/relationship” clauses in their contracts with their entertainers. Tzuyu is no exception. Since her debut at age 16 with TWICE, as part of her contract with JYP she signed a 3 year no dating clause in her contract. Why do companies do this exactly? Well for one thing, entertainment companies in Korea and generally Asia want to protect the image of their idols or groups, as each of the groups or performers typically appeal to a certain audience. Messing around with the image could lead to a loss in sales of merchandise and ticket sales. Secondly, as bad as it may sound, the lonely fans are typically the most hardcore and the ones that will spend the most money on albums, merchandise and show the most support for the idols themselves. You want to play along with their mind by making them think that “technically” they have a chance. Sadly for them, it’s mostly a marketing gimmick, most idols are likely never going to look at, much less date a fan. Most of their social groups revolve around other entertainers or people outside of their fandom. The other parts include just keeping their minds focused on raising the popularity of the group or their product. With the practice schedule and appearances, any kind of distraction not only would be bad for the idol, but for the entire group as well if any member were to be distracted from their practices. Thus most companies will have a certain time limit ban or a permanent “official” ban in order to protect their assets (the entertainers). Tzuyu is no different. We had a chance to ask her thoughts on the matter on the dating ban coming to an end soon (after three years, they are free to engage in relationships officially). “Tzuyu, what kind of person do you envision yourself being with?” “A pet person for sure! They have to love dogs, especially my dog Gucci. She’s been there since the start with me and has always kept me company. My boyfriend and her need to get along or else…well sorry, this won’t work.” “They would need to be ok that I’m 5’7, I think some guys are put off if the girl is too tall but I can sometimes reach six feet with my heels on. He’d need to be independent since between hockey and being part of TWICE, I’d be on the road a lot and we’d likely be separated for days if not weeks at a time. But when we’re together it will be the best times.” “So have there ever been unofficial relationships?” Tzuyu giggled at that, “I think you have to consider that while we’re in the public eye and no we’re not allowed to be in relationships because we’re busy and you don’t want a scandal of sorts to happen and tarnish the image of the groups, everyone has friends. We just want to hang out like any other person would and it doesn’t matter if it’s with another guy or girl. Sometimes things happen in this business. I haven’t had anything haha, but for sure in the industry and other groups I know of the occurrence and it happens more often than you think. It’s just a natural thing to seek other people to spend time with. I’ve even heard of some of them hanging out with a bunch of the players in the Asia Hockey Academy so I’m sure sometimes it can happen where it’s a little bit more than just being friends. But that’s about all I have to say about that.” Obviously reading between the lines and her stifling a laugh that its clear what she is hinting towards and to be fair, it really comes to no surprise. You have a bunch of good looking and talented young people together and as the saying goes….things happen. With that said, we are fast approaching the deadline where the official dating ban is lifted. October of 2018 exactly is when JYP (Tzuyu’s entertainment group) had the clause active to and we shall soon see who, if any lucky person ends up with her. Till then…perhaps…you have a chance too?
