In the colorful Southern painting of the movie "Who loves who loves", the character Cho played by Vo Dien Gia Huy is one of the roles that left many emotional echoes. Not noisy, not tragic about fate with dramatic climaxes, Cho appears like a slice of everyday life, rustic but haunting - true to the spirit that the film is aiming for.
Waiting is a Western boy who drives a boat, attached to the river and the slow pace of life in the countryside. In this character, the director did not build an image of a flashy or idealistic man, but put a look at the very life choices: love, waiting, endurance and even the hurt that cannot be spoken. It is that simplicity that makes Cho become the emotional "backbone" for the love story with Thuong (played by Tram Anh).
Cho's love for Thuong is not just a couple relationship, but is also dominated by family, prejudice and social bonds. The appearance of characters like Tham (Kha Nhu) or Hai Mau (La Thanh) pushes Cho into a state of inner conflict: between preserving old feelings and facing the harsh reality of life. Therefore, the character does not have dramatic "turns", but concentrates emotions in the eyes, gestures and long periods of silence.
Compared to previous roles, Cho marked an important turning point in Gia Huy's career journey. The character does not rely on appearance or emotional climax, but requires the actor to understand the life, rhythm of life and psychology of people in the river area. The complete transformation into Cho shows Gia Huy proactively leaving his comfort zone to try his hand at a real life role, an inner-city role - which is a "measure" for the maturity of young actors.
It is known that to accept this role, Vo Dien Gia Huy had to refuse to act in Tran Thanh's Tet 2026 film. The actor shared with reporters that because he had agreed to film the film "Who loves who loves" released on the occasion of the 2026 New Year, it was impossible to arrange Tran Thanh's filming time.
He regrets this, because the opportunity to collaborate with a famous senior like Tran Thanh also helps him learn a lot.
The role of Cho in the film "Who loves who loves" was highly anticipated by Gia Huy. The actor has almost rejected all schedules such as game shows, movies, and other shows to focus on this role. This shows that the actor is very passionate and hopes to break through with a new role.
