13th of January
Zhangzhehan_super3 account appeared again on Instagram. It was set to private so its content was visible only for the ones that followed it before it was deactivated in August. The account stayed mostly inactive but every few days its count of followers dropped by about a thousand. The reason is still unknown.
31st of March
After months of inactivity, the profile picture was updated in the middle of the night (Asia time). The previous selfie photo was swapped out for a logo registered as "ELPV".

3rd of April
After the initial profile picture change, there was more activity on Zhang Zhehan's Instagram account.
New bio was added to the account: 如荆棘之路似我命,亦用生命力开出荆棘之花 which translates to: If the path of thorns is like my life, I will use my life force to bloom the flower of thorns
Then the account turned from private to public. On the same day around midnight Asia time the account posted a set of 2 photos of Zhang Zhehan that had never been published before.
Caption: “Find your voice. Find yourself. True power is always greater than perfect power!” Once the account became public, the follower count began to increase, from an initial 347k to 391k on May 5th.
11th of April
The account uploaded a video of a figure, with a face not visible, playing a guitar.
The caption said:
“A cloud of mist and rain will serve my whole life …
…… There is no wind or rain and no sunshine"
13th of April
A few minutes after midnight, another video was posted to Zhang Zhehan’s Instagram. In it, another figure without his face visible plays a guitar. This time, at the end of recording, camera falls onto the floor revealing Zhang Zhehan's face for a split second.
Caption of the post in English: “Hi ! Find My Voice, Find me. ZHE.”
Later, the account posted a comment saying: Want a livestream? It will happen as you wish.” Up until now, no livestream has had place.
21st of April
The account posted another photo that seems to be taken in the same photoshoot as the two posted before on 3rd of April. The caption said:
“I will adjust the air conditioner to 24 degrees I will adjust the water heater to 46 degrees I will adjust the drink machine to 55 degrees I will never forget the 105 degrees in the early summer of that year One day I will realize my dream and feel the temperature of your sea”
30th of April
The account posted a handwritten letter dated 21st of April 2022 (attached below). In the letter, supposedly written by Zhang Zhehan, the author wrote that he's sorry that for now he can only contact his fans in written form and thanked them for their support. He also stated that a co-star has not contacted him since June 2021 and accused this co-star of using "his elements" since August 2021 to make profit. In the end he asked to not hurt his friends and his family. There was no information about the progress of his case.
3rd of May
The account posted a 6 minutes video of Zhang Zhehan's monologue in which he talked about his industry competitor, further accusing him of using "his elements" for advertisement purposes. He also accused him of misleading young people into believing in cp male/male pairing. Then he talked about learning to play the guitar, reading poetry, designing clothes etc. Still no mention about his case development.
