"Dancing is in my DNA. My grandparents loved dancing and my family in general has a great sense of the art. When there is a song, a beat, I want to dance," he says.
Now, after over a decade of being in the showbiz, Wu, when asked about the best and worst parts of being him, says that that best thing is that he lives to work. The negative part, which is possibly shared by lots of the celebrities, is the intense media spotlight, which invades his privacy.
One of the new songs, Super Human Beautiful, addresses Wu's attitude to privacy.
For Wu, who is Christian, his way of coping with stressful situations is to pray.
"I go to church. I surround myself with people, who support me, feed myself with positive energy," he says. "I have a clear goal about my career, that is to do things I love and create content I love."
He also pays attention to the younger generation, especially talent from the TV shows, who are eager to pursue their dreams.
"I was 22 when fame and money came in really quick. Compared with the young people, we lived in completely different times. Now, everything is so instant. It is easy to think that you did this thing by yourself just because everybody is calling your name but you need a team to help you. I want to mentor the next generation," he says.
