As a famous actor, the fate of actress Chiem Binh Binh is the same as her character in "Journey to the West".

Journey to the West is a classic film on the small screen, associated with the memories of many people. In the film, not only Tang Tang, Ton Ngo Khong, Tru Bat Gioi, and Sa Sang were loved, but the gods, bodhisattvas, even elves, and supporting characters also left an indelible impression.

Appearing in episode 20 of Ton Hau's medical skills, the character Kim Thanh Niang made many viewers sympathize because of a rather tragic story. She was originally the king's wife, but unfortunately, she was kidnapped by a demon for many years. The king, because he loved his wife too much, also fell seriously ill. Fortunately, the Empress was later saved by Tang Tang's teachers and students and reunited with the King.

Taking on the role of Kim Thanh Niang that year was actress Chiem Binh Binh. She is praised for being very suitable for the role thanks to her kind appearance, full round face, exuding gentleness.

In real life, Chiem Binh Binh used to be a famous actress. However, like her character in the film, she has a tragic fate, even more suffering.

Excellent beauties of the Chinese screen in the 80s

Chiem Binh Binh was born in 1948 in a poor family. Her mother is a tea farmer and her father works at a tea shop. But when Chiem Binh Binh was 2 years old, her mother died early. In order to make a living, his father had to send Chiem Binh Binh to a neighbor to raise him, while he went to Shanghai alone to find a job.

Despite having a poor and unhappy childhood, Chiem Binh Binh still grew up strong. Since she was young, she had a beautiful figure and good voice, so at the age of 11 she was favorably selected to the Shanghai Peking Opera School.

After graduating, Chiem Binh Binh returned to work at the Shanghai Peking Opera Theater. In 1979, the opportunity to become famous came to the actress when she was accepted as an apprentice by the famous Peking opera star Tong Chi Linh. Since then, Chiem Binh Binh has made great progress in art.

In the 1980s, Chiem Binh Binh's career reached its peak. She is a beauty loved and admired by many. Although not as famous as Cung Loi, Tran Chong... but Chiem Binh Binh's name always appears on television, books and magazines.

Tragedy at the end of life: Being seriously ill, dying in a foreign land

In 1990, on the occasion of a trip to the US to tour, Chiem Binh Binh decided to stay in the country of flags and not return home. This was a decision that completely changed her life. In the following days, the actress had to go through many events and pain.

After going abroad, Chiem Binh Binh discovered that she was not suitable for life in a foreign land.

Because she is not good at English and cultural differences, the actress does not have many job opportunities. Although she is a famous star in China, in the US she has to work as a stuntman, a supermarket assistant, and an announcer on a local radio station.

At that time, Americans also discriminated against the Chinese. Therefore, despite working hard, Chiem Binh Binh only received the minimum salary.

Chiem Binh Binh once dreamed of being a housekeeper or nanny for a rich American family because the amount of m.oney earned would be more. But worried that her foreign language wasn't good enough, she didn't even have the courage to apply for a job.

Difficulties make Chiem Binh Binh unable to continue pursuing his passion for art. In the end, she chose to work in a salon, taking care of the skin and beautifying the clients. Thanks to her hard work and efforts, she has accumulated a lot of experience and achieved success in this field.

After life was more stable, Chiem Binh Binh always wanted to return to China and open a beauty salon of his own. But unfortunately, she could not wait for this day.

Because Chiem Binh Binh has been quietly withdrawing from the entertainment industry for a long time when the actress passed away, few people know. It took many years for the audience to know that Kim Thanh Nien of Journey to the West was no longer alive and mourned the fate of a once famous beauty.
