Personal life

Real name anecdote

Ren Jialun's real name is Ren Guochao. Because of his down-to-earth name, he once became the first artist to top Weibo's hot search due to "failure to change his name".[12]

Ren Guochao is not the only hidden name of Ren Jialun. He is most famous for the fact that one person can form the "RGC411 Heavenly Group".[13] This group is composed of his multi-oriented former names, and one of the representatives of the group is Ren Yaoxi, who can sing and dance well. This name is derived from when Ren Jialun went to Japan for development, because the word "good" in Japan is "yaoxi", which is homonym for "Yaoxi" and has the meaning of shining star.
