Life and career
Jiang was born in Changsha, Hunan. After graduating from Yali High School, he attended Shanghai Theatre Academy in 2009 and graduated in 2013.[1] Initially a model, Jiang became the cover model for the inaugural issue of the youth magazine Firefly and served as a book model for Rao Xueman's novel The Left Ear in 2009.[2] In 2011, Jiang signed a contract with Tangren Media, and gained attention after starring as the leading actor in the 2012 drama Xuan-Yuan Sword: Scar of Sky.[3]
In 2015, Jiang entered into a dispute with his agency, Tangren Media, and established his own studio. On December 29, 2016, the second-instance verdict in Jiang's contract termination case with Tangren was announced. Jiang lost the case for the second time, with the court rejecting his request to terminate the management contract and upholding the original first-instance judgment. His management contract with Tangren remained in effect and was set to expire in March 2018.[4] In April 2018, Jiang announced that he would study abroad in Japan and suspended his acting career.[5]
Controversy
On November 20, 2018, Jiang was revealed to have engaged in domestic abuse toward his ex-girlfriend through a self-admittance post on Weibo.[6][7] On November 28, police in Japan issued an arrest warrant for Jiang, who was suspected of crime of intentional injury and domestic violence.[8] On November 30, Jiang turned himself in to the police.[9] On January 9, 2019, Jiang was released from police custody in Japan, and the domestic violence charges against him were dropped.[10]
