During her working trip to Korea on the occasion of the Busan International Film Festival, Do Thi Hai Yen attracted attention when she appeared charming in a Vietnamese ao dai.

Hinh anh nu dien vien voi ve dep diem nhien, man ma va chin chan khong chi goi nho nhung vai dien de doi ma con danh dau hanh trinh tro lai dien anh sau hon 10 nam roi xa man anh.
The image of the actress with her calm, salty and mature beauty not only reminds me of roles for life but also marks her return to cinema after more than 10 years away from the screen.
23 nam sau vai dien trong “Nguoi My tram lang“, doi mat hon hau cua Hai Yen nay them chieu sau va su tinh lang. Co cho rang thoi gian la nguoi thay lon nhat cua nghe dien, boi khong phai vai nao cung co the nhap vai ngay lap tuc.
23 years after her role in "The Quiet American", Hai Yen's soulmates now have more depth and quiet. She believes that time is the greatest teacher of the acting profession, because not every role can take on the role immediately.
 “Moi khoanh khac cho doi, moi khoang lang deu la mot phan cong viec cua dien vien: hoc cach kien nhan, quan sat va cam nhan cuoc song xung quanh”, nu dien vien chia se voi Bao Lao Dong.
Every moment of waiting, every moment of silence is a part of the actors job: learn to be patient, observe and feel life around you, the actress shared with Lao Dong Newspaper.
Theo co, quang nghi dai khong phai su lang phi ma la co hoi tich luy trai nghiem song, nuoi duong noi luc.
According to her, long breaks are not a waste but an opportunity to accumulate life experiences and nurture inner strength.
“Trong suot 10 nam roi xa dien anh, toi van luon suy nghi ve nghe thuat. Thoi gian khong bao mon tinh yeu danh cho dien anh, ma con giup toi truong thanh hon, de khi tro lai, moi vai dien deu co suc nang va chieu sau rieng“, Hai Yen noi them.
During the 10 years I have been away from cinema, I have always thought about art. Time does not erode my love for cinema, but also helps me become more mature, so that when I return, each role has its own weight and depth, Hai Yen added.
Su tro lai lan nay cua co gan lien voi vai dien Hoang hau ho Duong trong “Ho linh trang si – Bi an mo vua Dinh“, tac pham moi cua dao dien Nguyen Phan Quang Binh. Truoc do, co da tham gia hai du an duoc chu y la Quan Ky Nam, vua ra mat tai Lien hoan phim Toronto (TIFF), va 1982, du kien cong chieu vao nam 2026.
Her return this time is associated with the role of the Duong Dynasty Queen in "The Priest of the sickle" - The Mystery of King Dinh's Tomb", a new work by director Nguyen Phan Quang Binh. Previously, she participated in two notable projects, Quan Ky Nam, which just debuted at the Toronto Film Festival (TIFF), and 1982, scheduled to premiere in 2026.

Although her career was only limited to 7 films in the 2000 - 2015 period, every time she appeared, she affirmed her own identity: patience, meticulousness and rich in inner strength.
