Bao Chung is known as a famous comedian who was once in demand all over the country. During the peak of his career, Bao Chung had a very high salary and was known as one of the top "super car" artists in showbiz.

The male artist is affectionately called "the king of Southern clowns" by the audience.

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Bao Chung was a familiar face in the Southern comedy scene. When mentioning him, people immediately remember his unique and unmistakable laughter. Many audiences also affectionately called the male artist one of the "Southern clown kings".

Born into a landlord family in Binh Chanh District - Ho Chi Minh City, when he was young, Bao Chung was sent by his parents to a pagoda to become a novice monk to study Buddhist scriptures. At the age of 13, due to family circumstances, he asked to join a cai luong theater troupe to perform in many places.

In 1985, Bao Chung became closer to the audience through the cai luong play Chap Canh Chim Bang by author Thanh Kim Hue, director Thanh Dien. The success of this role helped the male artist affirm his comedy talent.

Later, Bao Chung's name was associated with satirical works, condemning bad habits in society such as Fear of Wife, Billionaire's Dream... He also appeared in TV series and movies such as Hai Lua Len Doi, Ngay Nay Ngay Nay, Khi Dan Men Co Bau... In addition, Bao Chung also participated in the musical film Tron Doi Ben Em by male singer Ly Hai.

In 1992, Bao Chung was listed as "One of the 10 most favorite comedians". He won the Gold Medal twice in the "Ho Chi Minh City Comedian" contest in 1996 and 2000.

The Bao Chung comedy group founded by the male artist also achieved success in many works, and was ranked as one of the 10 most favorite comedy groups in the "Golden Smile" award in 2004.

During his heyday, Bao Chung performed dozens of shows a night. Therefore, the male artist's income was also extremely high at that time.

However, in 2009, when he was at the peak of his career, Bao Chung decided to move to the US to live and work. Far from his homeland, he still could not give up his love for art. The male artist signed a contract with Van Son Center and performed on weekends.

In recent years, Bao Chung has returned to Vietnam. At the age of nearly 70, he is still "vigorous" in his career, doing many roles such as writing scripts, directing, directing, participating in his colleagues' programs, and making music videos with his juniors. Bao Chung confided that he is happy because he is still welcomed by the audience and receives many shows.

2 failed marriages, now happy with wife 29 years younger

Although successful in his career, Bao Chung had a difficult personal life. He had been through two marriages with five children. Later, Bao Chung married his third wife, singer Dieu Tham, who was 29 years younger than him.

Dieu Tham used to be a singer who specialized in singing folk songs. After getting married and having children, she retired to take care of her family, mainly livestreaming to sell products and making music videos.

Bao Chung shared that despite the 29-year age gap, he and his wife have no differences in views or lifestyle. Because they work in the same profession, Dieu Tham understands her husband's work. "Sometimes I go filming for a whole week or half a month before coming home, but my wife has never complained, she takes care of everything by herself," Bao Chung confided to VnExpress.

In particular, when his wife gave birth to baby Jac (now 4 years old), Bao Chung felt more optimistic and motivated in his work. "Thanks to my gentle and hard-working wife, I feel like I have more energy," he said.

Before that, when her husband celebrated her birthday, she said:

"After having three children together, I finally received such a beautiful bouquet of flowers. After living for forty years, I finally received a bouquet of flowers from my husband.

I was so surprised. Today I was planning to go back to Rach Gia to film with my husband. I don't want to reveal my birthday but my husband still wanted to surprise me.

I just planned to cook some food for my family to gather and eat together. I never expected to get such a beautiful bouquet of flowers. I am so happy. Thank you so much, husband.

I thank my parents for giving birth to me and raising me to adulthood. The merit of my parents cannot be fully expressed, nor can it be compared. In my heart, I am always grateful to my parents for giving birth to me and raising me.

Thank you husband for always being by my side. Don't have anyone else for the rest of your life!".

This half-joking, half-serious reminder from his wife made Bao Chung laugh.

According to Bao Chung, the stable income from performing helps him take care of his wife and young children, without the pressure of life. In addition, the artist and his wife also do online coffee business and open a broken rice restaurant in Long An. Thanks to his reputation and the love of the audience, his restaurant is doing well.

Open a 10 billion restaurant in An Giang

Recently, director Khuong Dua visited the newly opened restaurant of comedian Bao Chung in An Giang. The director revealed that Bao Chung spent up to 10 billion to open this restaurant.

Bao Chung's newly opened restaurant specializes in broken rice but also combines a coffee shop so customers have many options, where they can eat and sip on refreshments.

The restaurant is quite popular, with a simple, plain design and rustic tables and chairs, but is located on a fairly large area, right on a main road, so it has high real estate value, up to 10 billion as Khuong Dua revealed.

Because of its large area, the restaurant is quite spacious and can accommodate up to hundreds of people.

Seeing Khuong Dua arrive, Bao Chung quickly went out to welcome him, enthusiastically showed him around the restaurant, and even invited him to eat broken rice and coffee. He said: "This restaurant is owned by my sworn brother, who is also my brother-in-law, and I, who invested together. This restaurant can also host wedding parties.

I display coffee for sale and sell it here in the West as well."

Khuong Dua exclaimed: "Oh my god, at this age, Bao Chung still hasn't rested, and even opened a restaurant. He's afraid his wife and children will have nothing to do, so he has to do it."

Bao Chung's 29-year-old wife also came to help him look after and manage the restaurant.

It is known that some time ago, Bao Chung also opened a very large garden cafe. He also has a clean coffee brand named after him, which is doing well. In addition, he also owns a large villa worth hundreds of billions in Ho Chi Minh City.
