Oc Thanh Van returned to Vietnam in early December 2024 after a long time living in Australia to take care of her family.
Recently, she reappeared on the big screen with the horror movie "Heo 5 móng". Meritorious Artist Oc Thanh Van surprised the audience with her sharp appearance, brown skin and more seductive, modern style than before.
In the horror movie Heo 5 móng, Oc Thanh Van plays Jennifer - a Vietnamese-American woman with a liberal, modern lifestyle and a seductive European-American style.
The character is not only prominent in appearance but also has psychological depth when facing marital conflicts due to cultural differences with her husband (played by Tran Ngoc Vang), and is also drawn into dark spiritual secrets when returning to Vietnam.
In the movie, Oc Thanh Van flexibly uses both Vietnamese and English to accurately represent the character's background. To fully transform, the actress has dyed her skin brown and exercised at the gym to have a firmer and sharper figure.
In particular, she revealed that she was haunted and lost sleep after filming a tense argument that lasted for many minutes, showing serious investment in this role.
Recently, Oc Thanh Van returned to artistic activities. She appeared on drama stages, gameshows... and all left an impression.
While her husband - Tri Rua - focuses on business and she often shares humorous everyday stories about raising children.
Oc Thanh Van shared that when she returned to Vietnam, she felt like "fish in water", full of energy after a tiring time in Australia.
The female artist said that in her last days abroad she was quite exhausted, so when she got home she felt like she was "reborn".
Both families are very happy, and her husband - Tri Rua - is also more comfortable when he doesn't have to update his schedule every day. For her, current life is always bustling and warm like the Tet atmosphere.
At the end of 2023, Oc Thanh Van temporarily suspended her activities to take her children to Australia to study abroad and directly take care of the children.
She often travels between Vietnam and Australia, taking advantage of bringing her children back to the country when there is an opportunity to reunite. During that time, her husband - Tri Rua - stays in Vietnam to do business and take care of the family, and periodically goes to Australia to visit his wife and children.
