I remember last Indonesia SS, Bao always 'hide' before the bus came to pick him and the rest of the team back to the hotel... When the bus arrived, he walked so fast, went inside the bus as quickly as possible, :D and ignoring all the girls asking him for photo or autograph... Just like a movie star, haha... You can say the rest of the team were completely ignored by the girls...
