After many projects have not made much of an impression, this new historical drama is considered a "test" for Ly Tham to prove her ability to play the main role and maintain her position among the talented female actors in China.
Up to now, "Nhat Tieu Van Ca" has aired about a third of its journey, with an average of more than 4 million views per episode. However, this is not a dreamable number, as the team is trying to protect the average of 10 million views/group mark - the threshold showing the basic success of a large-scale historical project. What is more worrying is that after only four days of broadcasting, the film no longer has commercial advertisements, a sign that investors are somewhat cautious about the actual impact of the work.
Regarding performance, Ly Tham continued to score in the stable charisma and acting technique. The action scenes, expressing the character's inner emotions, were handled by her smoothly, showing her extensive experience after many years of acting in historical films. The audience commented that Ly Tham still maintained her form "in every role", especially when transforming into a strong female general but with deep emotional depth.
However, her weakness lies in her lack of breakthrough and outstanding personality in this character line. Although the script for "Nhat Tieu Van Ca" has a fast pace, the main character is sometimes considered "excessively safe", not creating a special mark to spread beyond the reach of core fans.
In the context of fiercely competitive historical films at the end of 2025, "Nhat thoi tuy ca" is an important but also full of risks for Ly Tham. If she cannot achieve the expected streaming index, promotional effectiveness and media heat, her ability to continue to be assigned female leads in mid-range and large-range projects will be threatened. "Nhat Tieu Van Ca" is therefore not only a film, but also a turning point in shaping Ly Tham's acting position in the new stage of her career.
