Ying Wei-min (Chinese: 應蔚民; pinyin: Yīng Wèimín; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Eng Ùi-bîn; born 24 October 1970) is a Taiwanese actor and singer.
He is the lead singer of an indie nakasi rock band, The Clippers,[1][2] which he founded in 1995.[3] The band began with an emphasis on noise music, and shifted in style throughout the years.[3] On stage, Ying is known by a diminutive of his surname, to which he usually affixes the name of his band.[4][5] In 1998, Ying hosted a radio program, Psychological Collapse of Xiao Ying on Big Tree Radio FM 90.5. The show featured an eclectic array of sound mixed within a talk show format. Tsai Hai-en of the LTK Commune helped develop the show, which was taken off the air due to its inappropriate content.[6] Ying has appeared as a stage actor,[7] although he is best known as an actor for his role in Cape No. 7,[1] and numerous cameos, including on David Loman.[5]
