Actrita Joey Wang, pe numele sau real Joey Wong Cho-Yee, s-a nascut pe 31 iulie 1967 in Taipei. Wang s-a inscris sa urmeze cursurile de teatru ale “Guoguang Arts School” (astazi “National Taiwan College of Performing Arts”)
Incurajata de tatal sau care era baschetbalist, Joey s-a pregatit pentru a devenit jucator profesionist de baschet pe cand avea doar 14 ani.
Dupa ce a jucat intr-o reclama la bascheti, Wang a atras atentia unui producator de film care a inclus-o in distributia filmului “It'll Be Very Cold by the Lakeside This Year”. Vazandu-i prestatia din respectiva pelicula, producatorul Mona Fong  de la Shaw Brothers a invitat-o pe Wong la Hong Kong pentru a juca in “Let's Make Laugh II”. In 1987, ea a intruchipat o stafie in “A Chinese Ghost Story”, rol care a transformat-o intr-un idol in Japan si Coreea de Sud.
In 1989, Wang a plecat in Japonia pentru a filma pentru “A Woman From Hong Kong”. Trei ani mai tarziu ea a debutat in muzica cu albumul "Hold You In My Arms Forever". Anul urmator, Joey a jucat si in In 1993 pelicula “Green Snake”.
Din 1994 pana in 1997 a luat o pauza, revenind in filmul japonez “Peking Genjin” si lansand single-ul "Who Are You?".

In 2004, ea a aparut in “Beautiful Shanghai”, semnand in timp mai multe contracte destul de avantajoase pentru cariera sa. Cu toatea acestea, sinuciderea prietenului sau Leslie Cheung a determinat-o sa renunte din nou sa mai apara in lumina reflectoarelor.
In prezent, aceasta locuieste in Vancouver, Canada si studiaza limba engleza. Joey a avut o relatie de 16 ani (1985-2002) cu Chyi Chin, un cantaret din Taiwan, insa momentan intre ei a ramas doar o relatie de prietenie.
