In his 60-year-long artistic career, Xiang Kun has created many classic artistic images, among which the one that impressed the audience the most was the negative image he created.
But Xiang Kun in life is not a bad person, he not only has profound artistic accomplishment and superb acting skills, but also has the style of a revolutionary and a gentleman.
When Xiang Kun was filming his first film "Young China", he met an actress who played a supporting role in the film, and she was Ruan Fei.

Xiang Kun and his wife have lived together for more than 50 years, a lifetime of grace and love, Xiang Kun and his wife lived frugally before they were born, and have been living in a three-bedroom apartment of only more than 80 square meters for decades.
On February 15, 2009, Xiang Kun died of illness at the age of 94. Time is like an arrow, and the years are like shuttles. The older generation of artists we loved gradually left us, but we were impressed by their noble sentiments and admirable work ethic.
