The actress once recounted that:

"More than 20 years ago, the film Tay Do Beauty was heavily cast, lasting for 2 months. The casting was full of the most famous models and beauty queens of that time. In general, the actors at that time were many, but great. However, no one invited me to cast because I have a reputation for being starved.

I thought I wouldn't be involved in this movie. But all of a sudden, one morning the film assistant called me and said, "Trinh, you are free to go to the TV station. Le Cung Bac wants to invite you to his new movie, Tay Do Beauty. ".

I didn't think I would be able to play the main role Pham Cuc, but I still sat on the radio. Uncle Pham Khac said: "After a while of selection, Mr. Le Cung Bac saw that I was the most suitable person.

But this is a TV show, not a private one, and you are a star, have a star disease, come late and leave early. Le Cung Bac had to ask for a lot for his son.

It was true that at that time I had a star disease, so I came home late. I was very touched when Mr. Le Cung Bac suggested me. I don't think he trusts me enough to guarantee the broadcaster.

When I heard Uncle Pham Khac say that, I burst into tears and promised my uncle and Le Cung Bac that I would be on time. I also know the importance of this film, it can't be like market films."

On her personal page, Viet Trinh posted a photo taken with the late director and couldn't contain the pain:

"No more tears to cry, Bac!

Over the past year, he has been strong, brave and optimistic in his hospital bed. He wholeheartedly turned to the Buddha, reading sutras every day even though he was very tired and in pain.

Now he has returned to Buddha, Buddha has extended his hand to welcome him. He passed away peacefully."
