Ryan Lian Yong Yi (born 4 September 1985) is a Singaporean actor, singer and host.
Lian is managed by J Team productions under mm2 Entertainment.[1]
Lian had been taking on minor roles in Mediacorp dramas for more than 15 years before he made his film debut in director Jack Neo's movie Long Long Time Ago and Long Long Time Ago 2 as Ah Long and this was the first time he was one of the main leads.[2]
In a Singaporean crime show titled In Cold Blood, Lian portrayed "Koh", who was based on Lee Chez Kee, a Malaysian who killed an NUS associate professor during a robbery in 1993 before spending 13 years as a fugitive; Lee committed the crime with two other men, who were both arrested in 1998. Lee, who was arrested and convicted of the murder in 2006, was executed by the time the episode aired in 2012.[3]
In 2017, Lian was featured in Take 2 and Ah Boys to Men 4, where he was the first main lead in the former film and reprises his role as Ah Long in the latter film.
