Quỳnh An |

Tran Thanh's coverage in hot TV shows is still dense.

The golden age of comedy game shows such as " Cuoi qua Viet", "Challenge of Comedy", "there's a thank you!"... has passed, many programs have stopped production.

Tran Thanh, Truong Giang, Hoai Linh, Viet Huong... were once the forces when the game show was in full bloom.

Tran Thanh has appeared frequently across the channels in a series of game shows such as: "Who is that person", "Mask Singer", "Challenge of Famous Comedy", "This Is You!" (head of the department), "The Voice of the Who" (reference, guest), "The Mysterious Person", "The Talent of the Challenge"...

However, when Hoai Linh, Viet Huong, and even Truong Giang could no longer maintain their appeal when the comedy game show was out of date, Tran Thanh still maintained his appeal and was still a "power" on television.

Currently, Tran Thanh is still appearing heavily on hot, promotional TV shows such as "Anh trai say hi", "Running Man season 3", which is about to be a program about AI. Previously, he was also the MC of Rap Viet and Em xinh say hi.

At the recent press conference to launch Running Man season 3, Tran Thanh admitted that his health had significantly declined, leading to concerns about age, but when he received an invitation from the producer, he could not refuse. The male MC revealed that he is suffering from a herniated disc but is still trying his best to play Running Man 3.

Tran Thanh's success shows that, even when the game show trend changes, the core value of an artist still lies in his ability and ability to conquer audiences.

According to some experts, there are 3 main reasons why Tran Thanh has maintained his popularity after many years. That is the ability to adapt flexibly, lead intelligently, humorously combined with coverage in many roles from MC to actor, director has created Tran Thanh's personal brand.

Tran Thanh still has a special appeal, a star face, and a character that is hard to replace.

Tran Thanh is not only the MC leading the program, but also a "comedian" with storytelling skills, the ability to turn things around and handle situations skillfully. Tran Thanh can challenge anyone, not just a small-scale familiar crew.

Although the period of comedy game show explosion has ended, entertainment programs on television still need a face with enough charm and courage to connect with the audience. Tran Thanh, thanks to his many years of experience and diverse transformation, is still considered the "trump card".

Nguyen Phong Viet - author of many best-selling books - commented: "In fact, Vietnamese showbiz does not lack talented MCs, especially serious show leaders. However, in the entertainment game show segment, Tran Thanh has almost no competitors.

The difference is that Tran Thanh is not only an MC but also a multi-talented artist, capable of connecting, transforming and inspiring players - who are also artists. Therefore, many colleagues are willing to cooperate and "use their headscarves" when Tran Thanh is in charge.

In addition, Tran Thanh possesses a sharp vision, knowing which show to choose will become a phenomenon. In reality, most of the game shows he participated in have become hot and viral programs, creating the feeling that wherever Tran Thanh was, he was successful.

Tran Thanh's ability to choose scripts and programs also shows his appraisal ability.

Tran Thanh is showing that his success is due to possessing many factors and personalities to create success.

Tran Thanh is talkative, sensitive to the times, easily responding to all situations, and more than that, he is also easy to interact with anyone, any crew he wants.

The timeliness and talent have created a "tran Thanh an khach" over the past decade, although the entertainment market and audience tastes have changed a lot.
