Jang Young-ran (born September 19, 1979) is a South Korean actress and trot singer. Debuted in 2003, she is one of the VJs in Mnet Korea. She also participates in a variety of Korean talk shows. In May 2009, she released her debut single "The Mask" under the name "Rani". The change of her career direction was to give the audiences a new concept of her real self and hopes to relieve herself from her unpopular image she had built up from TV show appearances.{{Cite web | url=http://joynews.inews24.com/php/news_view.php?g_menu=700100&g_serial=423085 |title = '라니' 장영란, 가수로 변신한 진짜 이유(인터뷰)| date=19 June 2009 }} In May 2024, Jang signed with new agency SM C&C.{{Cite web|script-title=ko:장영란, SM C&C와 전속계약|trans-title=Jang Young-ran, exclusive contract with SM C&C|url=https://news.jtbc.co.kr/article/article.aspx?news_id=NB12196994|via=Naver|publisher=JTBC|language=ko|last=Park|first=Jeong-sun|date=May 20, 2024|access-date=May 20, 2024}}
