Ke Ying (Chinese: 柯颖; pinyin: Kē Yǐng; born January 26, 1998) is a Chinese actress. She gained widespread recognition for her leading role as the body-swapping assassin Shi Qi in the breakout historical romance short drama A Familiar Stranger (2022), and has starred in series including Butterflied Lover (2023) and Perfect Match (2025).

Early life and education

Ke was born on January 26, 1998, in Changsha, Hunan province. She developed an interest in the performing arts at an early age and studied Chinese classical dance. She later enrolled in the Performance Department at the Shandong University of Arts, graduating with a degree in dramatic acting.

Career

Ke made her screen acting debut in 2020. She rose to prominence in late 2022 after starring opposite Cheng Lei in the Mango TV micro-drama A Familiar Stranger, directed by Zeng Qingjie. The series became a surprise sleeper hit and garnered critical acclaim for its production value and performances, establishing Ke as a leading figure in China's rapidly growing short-form drama industry.
