Hans Zhang Han (born 6 October 1984) is a Chinese actor, singer and host. He graduated from The Central Academy of Drama in 2007. Zhang is best known for his roles in Meteor Shower (2009) and Meteor Shower II (2010), The Queen of SOP (2012), Boss & Me (2014) and The Four (2015).
Zhang was born in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang. He entered The Central Academy of Drama and majored in acting in 2003. At the start of his life, his prudishness led him to doubt his potential to be an actor. Zhang lingered around Beijing Railway Station to make a short video. He shot his video as a romantic love story, which sprung from the story of a ragged man. As a result of the video, Zhang was rewarded and was determined to stick with acting.
After Hans Zhang graduated from Central Academy of Drama in 2007, he appeared in various television series and movies. In 2009, he rose to fame for his breakthrough role as Murong Yunhai in popular Chinese idol drama Meteor Shower and its sequel, Meteor Shower II. Zhang was awarded the Most Popular Actor award at the 2009 Sohu TV Drama Season Review and the Most Promising Artist at 2009 Sina Web Festival.
The following year, he collaborated with Korean actor Song Joong-ki in the animal-themed movie Hearty Paws 2. Zhang plays a foreign exchange student, and conversed in Korean language throughout the film, despite not knowing how to speak the language.
In 2011, Zhang began hosting Hunan TV's Great Sunday with Peer (Zhu Zixiao) and Vision Wei. The variety program was popular with the audience, with constant increases in ratings and becoming one of the most searched-about online topics. In the same year, Zhang starred in the idol drama Fall in Love, taking on a more mature and complex role, which won him the Sina Entertainment Awards for Most Popular TV Actor and the Ratings Contribution award at the Sohu TV Drama Awards. The same year, he collaborated with Meteor Shower co-star Zheng Shuang in the film No Limit and the television series Secret History of Princess Taiping.
