Ethan Juan (traditional Chinese: 阮經天; simplified Chinese: 阮经天; pinyin: Ruǎn Jīngtiān; Wade–Giles: Juan Ching-t'ien, born 8 November 1982) is a Taiwanese actor and model. He gained popularity in idol dramas Green Forest, My Home (2005), Wayward Kenting (2007), Fated to Love You (2008), and My Queen (2009) and had a frequent collaboration with Doze Niu, who directed Monga (2010), earning Juan the 47th Golden Horse Award for Best Actor. In the 2010s, Juan shifted his career to mainland China, where he achieved modest success until the Taiwanese film The Pig, The Snake and The Pigeon (2023) became a surprise hit in China.
