Bunjaku Han
(Chinese: Fàn Wénquè) was a Japanese-speaking Taiwanese actress who lived and worked in Japan.

Career
She was mostly known as a character actress. She became famous playing an unfortunate half-Japanese, half African-American volleyball player called Jun Sanders in a 1969 volleyball drama called Sain wa V.  She went on to appear in films such as Alleycat Rock: Female Boss and the Playgirl TV detective series. In her later career, she provided the Japanese voice-over for the lead character in Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman and appeared as the mother of Itsuki Fujii in Love Letter. She was also active in stage acting in the later part of her career, and was due to appear in a new production at the time of her unexpected death.

She had a brief career as a singer, releasing three singles in the 1970s.

Personal life
She was a Taiwanese citizen, but did not speak Chinese.

She married Akira Terao in 1973 and retired, but they divorced in 1974.
