The series "The Pearl Curtain" has aired 29 episodes. Initially, the work of Trieu Lo Tu and Luu Vu Ninh was expected, but the broadcasting results were not as expected.
Along with that, the content, costumes, and acting of the cast also received many mixed opinions. Most recently, the tight-waisted prison shirt worn by Doan Ngo/To Mac Gia (Trieu Lo Tu) in the scene where he was locked in prison was criticized.
The majority think that the female lead's appearance in prison is too beautiful. In addition to the waist-hugging shirt, To Mac Gia's face is also carefully groomed with curled hair, a fluffy bun, and a fair face...
Immediately after the controversy from the audience, Han Quang Nhan - the film's stylist spoke up, saying that To Mac Gia had not been convicted, but was only detained as a suspect. This was a round-neck Chinese tunic (undershirt), not a prisoner's uniform.
The film crew later reposted the post. Along with that, many fans of Trieu Lo Tu also shared photos of To Mac Gia and Trinh Tu's outfits when they were arrested. They both wore round-necked Chinese tunics in dark gray tones.
However, some viewers still believe that this is not the first time "Rem ngoc chau sa" has been embroiled in controversy. Previously, in the diving scene, she was praised for her dedication, however, her beautiful and innocent image like a muse, or in the fight scene with a man with neat hair and clothes, was also criticized for being unreasonable.
Many people compare Trieu Lo Tu's image in the movie with Cuc Tinh Y, calling her "Cuc Tinh Y 2.0" because she always has to maintain a beautiful image, no matter the situation.
