Fangge Dupan (Chinese: ????; pinyin: Dùpan Fanggé; 9 March 1927 – 10 March 2016) was a Taiwanese poet.
Born to a prestigious Hakka family in Xinpu, Hsinchu, she began writing as a teenager in high school.
Most of her early work is written in Japanese because she was educated in that language.
Due to political pressure, she stopped writing in Japanese and did not publish until the 1960s, in Mandarin.
In the late 1980s, Fangge Dupan turned to her native Hakka language. Her main works are Ghost Festival (???), PinAn Drama (???), Paper Man (??), and Vegetable Garden (??).
