Tri Trong Thuy
At that time, Tri Trong Thuy was at the peak of his career. With a bookish appearance and calm demeanor, he was considered the most classic Tang Sanzang model on screen. Despite having many opportunities to develop in the film industry, he gradually withdrew from the entertainment industry.
A major turning point in the actor's life was his marriage to wealthy businesswoman Tran Le Hoa in 1990. After getting married, he almost retired, switching to supporting his wife in business activities. From a famous artist, he became a companion behind him, contributing to the management and development of family projects.
For many years, Tri Trong Thuy has been associated with Phu Hoa Quoc Te - a group founded by his wife. He has also participated in the operation of the Chinese Zi Dan Museum - a large cultural project associated with the passion of the couple.
Although far from the limelight, Tri Trong Thuy's life still receives much attention. He is commented to have a lasting marriage, lasting more than 30 years with Tran Le Hoa. The two often appear together at events with a calm, discreet and respectful image.
Uong Viet
Uong Viet is the first actor chosen by director Duong Khiet to play Tang Sanzang. With a bookish appearance, he quickly created a good impression with the audience even though he only appeared in the first few episodes.
However, when the film was in the process of filming, he decided to leave the crew to pursue a professional film career.
Although he later had more opportunities to act in movies, his name did not make a big impression. In 2004, he withdrew from acting, switched to teaching at the Chinese Academy of Drama and writing scripts. His current life is quite secretive, far from showbiz.
Tu Thieu Hoa
After Uong Viet left, Tu Thieu Hoa was assigned to play the role of Tang Sanzang. He quickly made his mark thanks to his outstanding appearance, and many viewers commented that he was "the most handsome Tang Sanzang on screen".
Despite being loved, he also soon left the film crew to complete his studies. After graduating, Tu Thieu Hoa participated in a number of projects such as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but did not create a big buzz. Later, he worked in the field of theater in Shandong.
In recent years, the male actor has often appeared at events in a kha sa shirt, performing the soundtrack of the movie "Journey to the West". This helps him maintain his attention, but also faces mixed opinions when he is said to be "living on old glory".
