The news of Meritorious Artist Ngoc Trinh's passing at noon on September 1 shocked the artists and audiences. In the memories of many colleagues, Ngoc Trinh is a person who lives by affection.
Sharing with Lao Dong reporter, actor and MC Le Nguyen Bao - one of the close colleagues of the late artist said that in the days before her death, artist Ngoc Trinh felt tired from a stomachache so she went to the doctor.
Before that, the actress also made an appointment with a model to follow her breasts because Ngoc Trinh had recently studied more about this profession.
The actress was hospitalized immediately afterwards and fell into a deep coma for 10 days, having to use a ventilator, until her mother and younger sister returned from the US and breathed their last.
Actor, MC Le Nguyen Bao said that on the day he received the news of the female artist's passing, he was preparing to host a program broadcast live on television. He was shocked and heartbroken when he heard the announcement.
Ngoc Trinh is the sister in the profession who gave him his first chance when he had just graduated from Ho Chi Minh City University of Theatre and Cinema in 2014.
At that time, I had just graduated, so I had not had any role or collaborated with any stage. But it was her who gave me the opportunity to have my first role. For more than ten years, she has always called me "little Bao". Standing next to me, she rubbed her head: "Your Bao".
At that time, she told me to go back to the stage with her, and she let me play the main role. At first, I couldn't act or practice with me, but she didn't say a word to scold me. She just patted me up to encourage me to try harder, the actor recalled.
What makes MC Nguyen Bao appreciate is the heart of artist Ngoc Trinh with her colleagues.
"People remember her not only for her stage talent but also for her sincerity, always supporting her brothers and sisters and friends by buying things if someone sells online.
She is always active in life, always smiling brightly and absolutely keeping her name secret about her illness. Only those who know her knew that she had a stomach disease since she starred in "Scent of the Corn".
During her lifetime, Ms. Trinh expressed her desire for a peaceful and peaceful life. She told me that if I wanted to become a teacher, I would have to study for a master's degree. Many times I had to take flights from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi, but my dream was still unfinished, I quickly left, the male MC recalled.
In Nguyen Bao's memory, Meritorious Artist Ngoc Trinh is a famous person who is dedicated, never complains about work, nor does he focus on salary. Although she is an Meritorious Artist, the actress is still willing to wait for many hours just to complete the filming. Once, for some reason, Ngoc Trinh had to wait until 5pm, then film until 1am the next morning but did not complain.
For Nguyen Bao, artist Ngoc Trinh is not only a colleague but also a silent teacher - the one who guided him into the profession with rare love and tolerance.
The visitation ceremony of the late artist Ngoc Trinh is taking place at her private home in Ho Chi Minh City. The coffin will be cremated on September 4. In recent days, many Vietnamese stars have come to burn incense to bid farewell and express condolences to the late artist's family.
Meritorious Artist Ngoc Trinh was born in 1974 in Ho Chi Minh City, working in both the fields of drama and film, and participating in films "Scent of the Corn", "Lang Hoa Tinh Yeu", "Tien Dong Yeu Yeu"...
