The historical drama "Tieu Dao" starring Dam Tung Van and Hau Minh Hao is expected to be released in October. However, since the end of September, Chinese social networks have been rumored to have significantly cut off the female lead Tan Songyun's performance, while the villain Huyen Co, played by Zhao Liying as a guest, has unexpectedly received many more scenes.
According to many audiences, Trieu Le Dinh is said to be the investor behind the "Tieu Dao" project. This means that she has the right to participate in post-production editing and can affect the appearance time of the characters. Therefore, many sources believe that this change is to help Zhao Liying consolidate her image and regain her reputation after recent speeches.
The quick information caused the online community to divide into many opinions. A part of the audience expressed concern for Tan Songyun when her female lead role was at risk of being overshadowed. The actress is famous for her natural and pure acting style, and is expected to make a new mark through "Tieu Dao". Meanwhile, many people think that adding scenes to Zhao Liying is not surprising, because she possesses great appeal and is able to guarantee the "hotness" of the work every time she appears.
Currently, the film crew of Xiao Dao has not given an official response to the rumor. Dam Tung Van and Trieu Le Dinh both kept silent. However, with the work preparing to air, public opinion is more interested in the final editing method as well as the balance of the scenery between the characters.
"Tieu Dao" is considered a key project in the second half of 2025, not only because of its talented cast but also because the script promises many dramatic details. The speculation surrounding the film has accidentally made the audience even more curious, waiting to see how the roles of Tan Songyun and Zhao Liying will be portrayed when the work is officially released.
