Walking along invisible borders,
No longer chasing echoes — only resonating within.
What once was a sharp-edged defiance
Now sinks into something deeper.
Stripping away the noise, relearning myself.
Breaking, rebuilding —
Hearing the most unguarded world inside that's transforming.
Where light meets shadow,
silent fragments
pieced back together through music.
A record of how one finds their way back to themselves.

Yixing gets so much hate just because he’s got no legal drama, been supporting EXO members for years—RT’ing on Twitter, posting on IG, and mentioning them on varshows. He’s super successful and even wanted to do something for EXO after seeing only 2 members performing.
Thank you to everyone for your recognition and support.
In the days ahead, actor Lay Zhang will keep rooting deeper and reaching higher — bringing more characters to life with heart and dedication!

In 2018, he became a fan of Yixing’s music. In 2024, he was discovered by him (a 17-year-old high school student who received a dm from Yixing). And in 2025, for The Monkey King Rocks the Heavenly Palace, he worked on the rearrangement of “Jade.”
OP: I had the honour of participating in the music rearrangement for Zhang Yixing’s The Monkey King Rocks the Heavenly Palace concert at the Bird’s Nest. This time, I was involved in rearranging the song “Jade.” I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Teacher Zhang Yixing and Teacher Yan Muchen (Ace) for their trust and recognition.
I became a fan of Teacher Zhang Yixing’s music in 2018. In 2024, I was discovered by Zhang Yixing Studio. And in 2025, at eighteen, I successfully rearranged a concert song for Teacher Zhang Yixing. My dream has always been to one day create music together with my favourite music producer, Zhang Yixing, and now, that dream has come true.
The road ahead in my music journey is still long, and there is much room for improvement. From now on, I will continue to study diligently, stay grounded, and surpass my past self, bringing everyone even better M-POP works. I hope that ten years from now, I can become one of Chromosome’s arrangers.
Finally, I sincerely wish Teacher Zhang Yixing’s The Monkey King Rocks the Heavenly Palace concert great success, and a very happy birthday to Teacher Zhang!
