Nguyen Thuy Hien (born in 1979, Hanoi) is one of the most outstanding Wushu athletes in Vietnamese sports.
She has won 7 world gold medals, 2 Asian gold medals and 8 SEA Games gold medals, and is affectionately called the "Queen of Wushu" by fans.
Few people know that before "Dong mau anh hung" started filming in 2006, Thuy Hien was once targeted by producers and Johnny Tri Nguyen for the female lead role. However, because she was pregnant, she refused the invitation.
The role then belonged to Ngo Thanh Van, becoming a turning point to help the actress make her mark with the title "action actress" of Vietnamese cinema.
Looking back at the missed opportunities, Thuy Hien said that at that time she also received many attractive invitations from abroad but all refused to continue pursuing a Wushu athlete career in Vietnam.
At the present time, Thuy Hien still maintains her charming beauty. She attracts attention when reappearing on screen as a female warrior in the movie "Ho Linh Trang Si: Mystery of King Dinh's Tomb" directed by Johnny Tri Nguyen.
Former athlete Thuy Hien became acquainted with Johnny Tri Nguyen in 1990 through a number of times she went to the US to exchange martial arts.
Thuy Hien specializes in Wushu, while Tri Nguyen is proficient in many martial arts.
To this day, he still maintains his passion for martial arts and founded a martial arts school - I admire this" - Thuy Hien said about Johnny Tri Nguyen.

Sharing about the behind-the-scenes of the movie "Ho Linh Trang Si", Thuy Hien said that she spent many days practicing with the crew before filming to get acquainted with the action scenes.
Although still affected by accumulated injuries during competition, often suffering from back, neck and shoulder pain whenever the weather changes, the former Wushu athlete still strives to overcome his limits.
Thanks to serious training, she completed high-intensity and physically demanding scenes in the film.
So after a mismatch, Thuy Hien and Johnny Tri Nguyen had the opportunity to collaborate in the movie "Ho Linh Trang Si: The Mystery of King Dinh's Tomb" - a historical film set after King Dinh Tien Hoang passed away after being assassinated, the film tells the journey of 7 ho linh trang si in the last mission assigned by Emperor Tien.
Thuy Hien currently has a more peaceful and open life after a long time of being a single mother and fighting depression. At the age of 47, she maintains her youthful beauty, balanced figure and participates in more artistic activities.
