Biography
Han Geng is a Chinese singer and actor who became one of K-pop's first major mainland crossovers before returning home to build a second career in film. Born February 9, 1984, he joined S.M. Entertainment as a trainee in 2001 and debuted with the boy band Super Junior in 2005. By 2008, he led Super Junior-M, the group's Chinese-language subunit, expanding the franchise's reach. In 2009, Han filed a landmark lawsuit to terminate his S.M. contract—a rare move for a K-pop idol—and relocated to China; the dispute resolved in 2011. His popularity in China peaked in the early 2010s, providing the platform for his transition to acting. From 2015 onward, he appeared in major Chinese films: So Young (2013), Ex-Files (2014), and Ex-Files 3 (2017). As an actor, he performs in cinema across drama and comedy. His birth on February 9 marks him as an Aquarius—a sign associated with independence and reinvention—traits evident in his career pivot from idol to actor.
