Artist Quyen Linh is one of the key faces appearing in the movie Chot Don. In the film, he plays Mr. An - a technology driver and the oldest employee of the company run by the female lead Hoang Linh.
Previously, when the film was about to be released, many viewers wondered whether artist Quyen Linh had caused controversy and had to apologize for advertising functional foods that caused confusion about the uses, whether it affected the film or not?
Speaking about this issue, artist Quyen Linh admitted that it happened a few years ago and is now receiving attention from the audience again.
He admitted his mistake: "I was wrong! Each of us has mistakes in this life. The important thing is that we dare to face the truth and dare to continue on the other path, learn from experience and do better in the next step".
Previously, in the first 6 months of the year's work report, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism reminded MC Quyen Linh about implementing food advertising that was not in accordance with one of the prescribed documents and causing confusion about the uses of the published products.
Actor Doan Quoc Dam was also reminded to advertise breast milk alternatives for children under 24 months old. This is a product that is prohibited from advertising.
According to the Department of Radio, Television and Electronic Information, these two cases are outdated.
The artists' advertising videos for violations were made around 20232024. Meanwhile, the penalty for administrative violations in the advertising field only has a term of one year for advertising content.
Faced with the recent discovery of fake milk, food and medicine, many artists have been named for advertising these products. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has coordinated with the Ministry of Health to handle the issue.
