However, images and videos recording the entire diễn biến at the event show that the reality is not entirely as rumored.
The source of the controversy stems from some close-up photos, recording the time when Sun Li held a rather serious face. From these individual frames, many social media accounts speculated that the actress was disappointed with losing the award, and at the same time built a story that she had a cold attitude towards Yang Zi.
However, when watching the entire video at the awards ceremony, it can be seen that Ton Le still performed all the congratulatory rituals for the winner. The actress smiled and applauded when Duong Tu was named and did not have any actions showing negative reactions. After the program, she was also recorded the moment of encouraging her co-star Tieu Chien, showing a comfortable and professional spirit after the results were announced.
Not only Ton Le, Ngo Viet also became a character dragged into the debate. Some photoshopped images made many people misunderstand that the actress had reluctant expressions. However, videos from different angles show that Ngo Viet still smiled, clapped and congratulated Duong Tu like other guests at the event.
Cutting a static moment out of the actual context and attributing it to subjective interpretations is not new on social networks. With just a serious expression lasting a few seconds, many accounts have created stories about conflicts, rivalry or "disapproval" attitudes between actresses. This way of spreading information makes it easy for many viewers to draw conclusions when they have not fully seen the developments.
Of course, this year's Best Actress Bach Ngoc Lan's results still created many mixed opinions. A part of the audience assessed Duong Tu's performance as convincing and worthy of victory. Meanwhile, many people expressed regret for Ton Le after her highly appreciated role in "Life is Beautiful". However, professional debate is normal and does not mean that artists have an attitude of disrespect to each other.
Looking at the full images at the awards ceremony, the atmosphere between the actors is still civilized, polite and true to the spirit of an art event. Therefore, information that Sun Li had a bad attitude when Yang Zi received the award mainly stems from photos cut from the context, not enough basis to confirm that the actress reacted negatively as rumors spread on social networks.
