Zhang Zhehan (张哲瀚; born 11 May 1991) is a Chinese actor and singer. His first major role was as Wei Ying in the Chinese historical drama Legend of Ban Shu (2015). He is best known for his roles in Legend of Yunxi (2018), The Blooms at Ruyi Pavilion (2020) and Word of Honor (2021).

In 2020, he received the Weibo Award for Rising Artist of the Year. He won the Weibo Movie Night award for Most Watched/Followed Actor of the Year in June 2021.

In 2021, Zhang faced severe criticism in China after being involved in a controversy over photos taken years earlier in Japan at a spot near the Yasukuni Shrine and Nogi Shrine due to the shrines' honoring of imperial Japanese military officers who invaded China. This criticism resulted in the removal of his online social media accounts, movies, television shows and music.

On January 1, 2022, an audio interview with Zhang was released by Li Xuezheng in which he stated his intention to confirm his innocence through the legal justice system.

Early life

Zhang Zhehan was born in Xinyu, Jiangxi province, China on May 11, 1991. He is a graduate of the prestigious Shanghai Theater Academy, where he received a degree in Musical Theatre. As a youth, he ran away to a friend's house to protest his parents not wanting him to pursue a career in acting, but he realized how badly it had hurt his mom and they reconciled. She later quit a secure job to move with him to Shanghai to help support him while he was in theatre school. She later appeared with him on an episode of the "Taste of Time" reality show. Not much is known about his father, who passed away some years ago (2016).

Zhang Zhehan suffered a knee injury in 2019, which sidelined him from acting temporarily and required him to give up playing basketball, a sport at which he excelled (he had been awarded the MVP trophy at the Tencent Super Penguin All Star basketball tournament in 2017). After recovery, he took up the sport of golf, which he became quite proficient at quite quickly such that he shot a hole in one less than six months after taking up the sport. He was also invited to provide celebrity color commentary for the golf during the 2021 Winter Olympics.

Zhang Zhehan is known to be an avid reader, sharing favorite excerpts with his fans via social media. His fans often handed him books to read during his walks through the airport. His reference to a Neil Gaiman novel on his Instagram page caused the book (Smoke and Mirrors) to shoot up the bestseller list in China in June of 2021.

Endorsements and Ambassadorships

Prior to his cancellation by CAPA and the platforms, Zhang Zhehan endorsed multiple products in the capacity as spokesperson, ambassador, and other titles. Those products included Coca-Cola, Longines watches, Pandora jewelry, Lanvin clothing, Nivea and Clinique skincare, Cover Girl makeup, OneLeaf skin care, Pretz, Wahaha, Tasaki pearls, Kilian beer, KimTrue skin care, Anker and JBL electronics and several Chinese food products. He also shared a joint endorsement of Tom Ford with Gong Jun, his costar from Word of Honor.

In 2021, he endorsed the Fantasy New Jade Dynasty video game, portraying live action versions of characters from the game.

Magazine Appearances

Zhang Zhehan has appeared on the cover or in the pages of a wide range of magazines, including Harper’s Bazaar, Young & Chic, ElleMen, VogueMe, Conde Nast Traveller, Wonderland, Nylon, GQ, Ok! and Marie Claire.

Philanthropy

In 2021, Zhang donated RMB 1 Million and supplies to aid the victims of flooding in Henan province. In the same year, Zhang Zhehan worked with the Volunteer League promoting T-shirt sales in support of children with autism. The T-shirt he promoted sold out in a matter of a few days.

Career

Zhang Zhehan began his acting career while still enrolled at the Shanghai Theatre Academy. He became a well-known actor in historical dramas, many of which were filmed in Hengdian Studio City. Prior to Word of Honor, he was best known for his roles in Demon Girl and Demon Girl II (2016), set during China's Republican era, as well as the historical dramas Legend of Yunxi (2018), based on the novel Poison Genius Consort (Chinese: 天才小毒妃) by Jie Mo, and costarring Jiu Jing Yi and Merxat, and its sequel The Blooms at Ruyi Pavillion (2020), adapted from the novel "Chong Hou Zhi Lu" (宠后之路) by Xiao Jia Ren, and co-starring Jiu Jing Yi and Liu Yi Chang. He had more recently appeared in the modern drama Everyone Wants to Meet You (2020) and had filmed several others which remain unreleased. He was a successful actor but gained significant fame with his appearance in Word of Honor (2021), a Chinese wuxia drama series based on the danmei novel "Faraway Wanderers" (天涯客) by Priest, playing the role of Zhou Zishu, an assassin turned wanderer.

In addition to his career as an actor, Zhang Zhehan is a successful singer-songwriter. He has sung on the original soundtracks for several of the dramas in which he appeared. He had also released two mini albums: "Light" and "Another Me," for which he wrote several of the songs. His last released independent single, 'Surround’ (环绕), spent a number of weeks atop the Neatease Music Popularity chart and was their fourth most popular song during the first half of 2021. He also sang
