Born in America, he speaks English and Mandarin with perfect pronounciation.
He enjoys singing, dancing, rapping and acting (he has a reputation for being the best dancer in F4). Vanness began singing
from an early age and use to be a part of the "L.A. Boyz", a US Taiwanese singing group. At the age of 18, his family
consisting of his parents, older sister, and younger brother and sister, moved from America to Taiwan. However, he did not
cut off his ties with American pop culture at all - he has recorded a rap that was put on Beyonce Knowles' Asian edition of
"Dangerously In Love" and in 2004, co-hosted the 2004 MTV Asia Awards with Michelle Branch.
In 2006, he and Kangta teamed up to release their first single, "SCANDAL",
under the group name, Kangta & Vanness, signed under SM Entertainment, a famous Korean agency.
