Dai Xu’s “Love Between Lines” Role Puts Spotlight on His Marriage to Actress Yin Yuhang

For years, Dai Xu was known as a “golden supporting actor” having played the comedic Chi Yanei in A Dream of Splendor to the principled Zuo Qiuming in The Rebel. While his name has rarely been the loudest in the room, the 36-year-old actor has recently found himself receiving more notice as the suited-up second lead Pei Zhen in Love Between Lines. The polished styling, glasses included, has drawn some comparisons to Wei Daxun’s rise to fame. As discussion around the role picked up, Dai Xu’s personal life also began trending on the hot search, as many were unaware that he is married with a child.

Dai Xu’s wife is actress Yin Yuhang, known to Chinese audiences for her debut role in the classic sitcom Home with Kids. The two have appeared in three projects together such as 2019’s The Legends. Their love story is a rare gem in the industry. Early in their careers, Dai Xu has always expressed his love openly through social media posts. He once posted her photo with the caption, “Her profile at sunset is a beauty I will never forget.” They even have a nickname for each other when they would interact online. After 15 years together, the couple entered the next chapter of their lives as they got married and welcomed a son, nicknamed Dai Jin, in 2023, though they made sure to keep him out of the public eye. Yin Yuhang has also largely stepped away from acting in recent years.
