Who is this?
Tang Wei (simplified Chinese: 汤唯; traditional Chinese: 湯唯; pinyin: Tāng Wéi; Korean: 탕웨이; born 7 October 1979) is a Chinese actress. She rose to international fame for her role in Golden Lion-winning Lust, Caution (2007) by Ang Lee, for which she was banned by the Chinese government due to the explicit sexual nature of her performance, until her comeback in Crossing Hennessy in 2010. She gained further acclaim for her performances in Late Autumn (2010), Finding Mr. Right (2013), The Golden Era (2014), Long Day's Journey into Night (2018), Decision to Leave (2022), and Wonderland (2024). Tang is the first and only non-Korean to be honored as the Best Actress at the Baeksang Arts Awards (twice), Blue Dragon Film Awards, Chunsa Film Art Awards and Buil Film Awards. She is also the first Asian actor to have won the Trophée Chopard, which she received at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival. Tang ranked 72rd on the Forbes China Celebrity 100 list in 2008, 70th in 2013, 38th in 2014, and 55th in 2015.
