Ying Yin (Chinese: 英茵, 28 March 1916 – 23 January 1942) was a Chinese actress active in the 1930s and 1940s. During the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong in 1942, she worked for the Chinese intelligence.

Ying Yin, who loved him, was unable to endure this situation, and committed a Shinjū suicide by taking a large dose of opium.
