Chen Kun, sometimes credited as Aloys Chen, is a Chinese actor, singer and producer. He gained recognition from television series Love Story in Shanghai (2001) and The Story of a Noble Family (2003) and rose to international prominence with the films The Knot (2006) and Painted Skin (2008). His other notable works include films Flying Swords of Dragon Gate (2011), Mojin: The Lost Legend (2015) and Chongqing Hot Pot (2016), as well as television series The Rise of Phoenixes (2018) and The Wind Blows From Longxi (2022).

Painted Skin is a 2008 supernatural-fantasy film directed by Gordon Chan, starring Donnie Yen, Zhou Xun, Chen Kun, Zhao Wei, Sun Li and Qi Yuwu. Although the film is based partly on a supernatural premise, it is more of an action-romance than a horror film. Painted Skin is based, very loosely, on "The Painted Skin", a short story from the collection Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio. The theme song of the film, Huà Xīn, was performed by Jane Zhang.
