In 1955 he was transferred again to PLA Air Force Political Department Song and Dance Troupe.
He first rose to prominence in 1964 for playing in the opera Sister Jiang, earned critical acclaim, and he was personally interviewed by Chairman Mao Zedong. But two years later, in the Cultural Revolution, the song was labeled as "poisonous weed" and he was cast as a rightist.[3]

Later, Yan's wife Li Wenhui said in an interview that her husband is alive and they will investigate the legal responsibility of the rumormonger.[6] "My father has been into a deep coma after acute cerebral infarction for more than twenty days, at present, his situation is stable, it's fair to say that he had the potential to wake up, but risk is often with opportunities, thank you for asking." Yan Yu, son of Yan Su, said in response to questions from journalists.[7] On February 12, 2016, Yan Su died at the General Hospital of the People's Liberation Army Air Force, in Beijing.[8][9] At the time of his death, he was set to judge a CCTV talent show and art advisor of the CCTV New Year's Gala.[10]
