Tsai was born on 14 March 1975 in Taichung, Taiwan. Her mother is from Wuqi, Taichung. Growing up, she spoke Taiwanese with her mother.[3] She attended Yudah High School of Commerce in Taipei with a focus in Japanese.[4]
Tsai began her modeling career after a friend invited her to a photo shoot. Initially, she planned to retire at 28, but the growing popularity of model/actress Lin Chi-ling gave her the opportunity to try acting.[5] She has since acted in a variety of television shows, films, miniseries, and music videos.
In 2017, Tsai was diagnosed with myofascial pain syndrome and paused acting for a year.[6]
She dated actor Patrick Lee from 2012 to 2020.[7]
