Adapted from the novel of the same name by author Thien Son Tra Khach, "Cam Nguyet Nhu Ca" revolves around the story of Hoa Yen (Chau Da).
To protect her family, she was forced to pretend to be the eldest son, He Ru Fei, and left the academy to join the battlefield. Here, thanks to her intelligence and talent, He Yan rose to the position of General Fei Hong. However, when she returned home, she was harmed when her brother, He Ru Fei, returned.
To reclaim what is hers, Hoa Yen changes her identity, disguises herself as a man and joins the Diep Chau army. She becomes friends with So Chieu (Truong Khang Lac) and reunites with Tieu Giac (Thua Loi) - who suspects her of being a spy. Through many challenges and life and death situations, Hoa Yen and Tieu Giac gradually understand each other and develop feelings for each other.
According to Chinese media, the film "Cam Nguyet Nhu Ca" has officially passed censorship and obtained a broadcasting license with 36 episodes, instead of 40 episodes as initially announced by the producer. With the current progress, it is likely that the film will be released this year.
The project is expected because it is adapted from a famous original. Along with that, Chau Da's transformation into the role of Hoa Yen in the behind-the-scenes images and videos also shows the difference. The image of female general Hoa Yen standing tall in the snow is highly appreciated.
On the other hand, Chau Da's acting in recent works such as "Ho tam" or "Nhieu lak nho anh" also recorded progress. Sohu praised the actress for restraining her expressions and handling the character's emotions delicately. This is also the factor that the media expects Chau Da to perform well in "Cam nguyet nhu ca" when this project will also have many scenes heavy on psychological depth.
One factor that helps "Cam Nguyet Nhu Ca" to be highly appreciated at present is the beautiful setting, invested costumes, and the chemistry and closeness of Chau Da and Thua Loi.
However, there are still concerns when the film follows the "love triangle" motif. The reason is because before, Thua Loi's fans posted to express their dissatisfaction when the actor's acting part in the film was cut, when there were days when he did not have any scenes. Meanwhile, the supporting actor Truong Khang Lac was given more important scenes.
Although the producer did not respond to this noise, the public hopes that this was handled tactfully when the film officially aired.
