Wang moved to Taiwan shortly after birth and did not return to the States until he was seven. He grew up in the States with his grandma, mother and younger sister Yvonne, whom is six years younger. Wang had loved to perform since young, but his family wanted him to complete his studies and also to work in the family business. After several years of working for his uncle, travelling around Asia, he finally had the courage to pursue his dream to enter the entertainment scene and taken up a role in drama, with the help of ex-girlfriend Elva Hsiao. Prior to his debut, he was widely known as the ex-boyfriend of the singer. Wang met Elva in 2003 during his university winter holiday return to Taiwan. Their relationship ended in March, 2005. They got together again 8 months later but broke up again. The two currently are under the same agency and manager.
