Ngoc Trinh announced a temporary suspension of activities, determined to leave everything behind to pursue "new joy"

Once again, Ngoc Trinh decided to leave her unfinished work behind to pursue her passion for acting. This time, the beauty from Tra Vinh chose a movie with horror and spiritual elements.

Nearly a year after the success of "Sister-in-law", Ngoc Trinh officially confirmed her return to cinema, trying her hand at the spiritual horror genre for the first time with the female lead role in a new project called "The Underworld Beauty Salon". This is a notable turning point in the acting journey of the "underwear queen", when she decided to turn to a difficult film genre, requiring psychological depth and strong acting ability.

Recently, the producer of "The Underworld Beauty Salon" revealed the first images from the opening ceremony. Appearing at the event, Ngoc Trinh chose a simple style with a white shirt and black skirt, light makeup and neatly tied hair, completely opposite to her familiar sexy image. The 8X actress made a good impression when thoughtfully preparing gifts for each member of the film crew, showing professionalism and respect for the crew right from the first days of the project.

In "The Underworld Beauty Salon", Ngoc Trinh plays the role of Thanh, a talented young woman who has had many ups and downs in her life. Due to circumstances, Thanh finds herself in a remote beauty salon, which seems to offer a new beginning, but is actually a door that opens to terrifying mysteries. She is drawn into a series of strange rituals, facing wandering souls and terrifying truths about the place she is staying.

Ngoc Trinh shared that after the success of "Sister-in-law" - the film that helped her prove her acting progress, she received many invitations from producers. However, the beauty admitted that she is still in the learning phase, carefully selecting each script to develop a sustainable film career. When she received the casting invitation for "The Underworld Beauty Salon", she spent a lot of time reading and researching the film's content, before deciding to accept the role.

"The film's theme made Trinh curious and she wanted to try it. In addition, the crew was very dedicated and meticulous in every stage of production, so Trinh felt this was both an opportunity and a challenge, both interesting and did not want to miss it," Ngoc Trinh shared.

According to the crew, the character Thanh is a deep and vulnerable role, requiring the actor to express complex inner feelings and constant emotional changes. This is also what attracted Ngoc Trinh, because she wanted to escape from her familiar sexy image, moving towards a more mature and emotional acting style.

Although Ngoc Trinh is not afraid of ghosts in real life, she still maintains a cautious attitude when participating in a film with spiritual elements. She said: "I am not sure how the atmosphere on set or the way the setting is set will bring me real emotions, so I do not dare to be subjective. I try to keep my mind relaxed, prepare myself mentally and work with my co-stars and the director to get into character as naturally as possible."

Notably, in order to fully devote herself to this film project, Ngoc Trinh decided to temporarily put aside all her business, livestreaming, fashion photography and advertising work. The beauty said she did not want to be distracted or "act for the sake of acting", but wanted to devote all her time and energy to the role, seeing this as a serious turning point in her acting journey.
