Dong Zhen (born 27 August 1986) is a Chinese singer-songwriter and lyricist best known for performing the theme songs of many Chinese MMORPGs, including The Legend of Sword and Fairy series, Jade Dynasty and Zu Online.
Dong graduated from the Communication University of China. After her graduation, she went to pursue her career as a singer with the Beijing Musical Organisation (Chinese: 北京音樂圈). In 2006, Dong was a judge at the auditions of the Woxing Woxiu (Chinese: 我型我秀) reality television show, jointly organised by UMG and SMG.
