In recent days, Duong Tu has become a topic of discussion on Chinese social networks when she shared that she has no plans to participate in a reality TV show in the near future. Instead, the actress wants to spend all her time on acting and resting when necessary.
Previously, 2025 was Duong Tu's high-intensity working period. The actress only had about 9 days off a year, continuously participating in many major film projects. In which, she spent nearly 188 days filming in the highlands in Qinghai with harsh weather conditions.
The filming process put a lot of pressure on Duong Tu's health. Sources said she had faced oxygen deficiency, insomnia and nervous pain. However, the actress still tried to complete the scenes as planned.
Many viewers believe that Duong Tu's decision to limit her participation in gameshows is not only due to health issues but also related to long-term career orientation.
It is because of the time in 2025, overwork has caused Duong Tu to change direction, no longer being too enthusiastic about gameshows.
In recent years, the actress has continuously shifted from the image of an idol star to more profound roles. The work "Sinh Menh Thu" with the image of a female police officer patrolling the forest is considered a notable step forward in her transformation process.
Duong Tu has also been nominated for important television awards many times, including the Best Leading Actress award at Bach Ngoc Lan. Therefore, choosing to focus on acting instead of appearing frequently on entertainment programs is considered a strategy to build a strong actor image.
Not only Duong Tu, many 8X and 9X generation Chinese stars are also tending to reduce entertainment activities to prioritize quality projects. Names like Duong Mich or Trieu Le Dinh have also shared their desire to spend more time in movies.
This change reflects a new trend in the Chinese entertainment market, where professional value and quality of works are increasingly appreciated higher than mere coverage.
For Duong Tu, what the audience sees is not only the effort to conquer awards but also the proactiveness in protecting health amidst a tight schedule. Many people think that is the necessary sobriety of an artist who wants to pursue a long career.
In her 30s, Yang Zi is showing a different choice between a fiercely competitive environment: not chasing short-term glory but persistently building positions through acting, and knowing when to stop when the body needs rest.
