She continued showcasing her acting chops in various supporting roles before finally gaining recognition in shows like &#x27;Chinese Paladin 3&#x27; in 2009 and &#x27;Palace&#x27; in 2011. Since then, the actress has been unstoppable.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/8c9e2d21-4a46-4579-b434-890eaa35d295_16585368_1261638117259194_5790462800954392576_n.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Yang Mi<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> @yangmimimi912  </em></span></span></span></span></div><p>But apart from a successful acting career, Yang Mi is also a singer and an in-demand endorser, with an album and several brand collaborations under her belt.
