Wan Qian was born in Heshan District, Yiyang, Hunan.

During her childhood, her father always took her to practice vocally, cultivating her love of singing.

A haphazard chance made her enroll into the acting undergraduate program at the Shanghai Theatre Academy (STA).

During her student life at the Shanghai Theatre Academy, she represented STA as the leading actress to join the international theatre festivals that were held in Romania, Hong Kong and the United States.

She also posted a short video on Weibo and officially announced it on 10 November 2017.
