On the evening of August 19, Ngoc Lan suddenly posted on her personal page announcing that she would temporarily stop working after a 21-year journey.
In the article, Ngoc Lan expressed her feelings about the difficult decision when she last stood on stage 12 years ago and now on the small screen.
Ngoc Lan said it will probably be a long time, or never see the audience again after the last movie.
She revealed the reason for her decision to temporarily retire: "Please sympathize with me because I can only choose 2 out of 3 jobs, father - mother - acting. The work of being a father and mother is too difficult so I need to focus more. Only then can I do those two jobs well. As for acting, I've been doing it for 21 years, so let me stop for a bit."
Sharing about her final role in "Stolen Happiness", Ngoc Lan said that she poured out all her heart and soul to bring to the audience - those who love her, the most watchable character.
"Stolen Happiness" is adapted from the famous Korean film "Pure Heart", directed by Meritorious Artist Nham Minh Huyen and screenwriter Thanh Huong. The film is about the struggle between two brides to become heirs to the Do family, leading to a change in the fate of two young girls with a passion for the art of hand embroidery.
The work brings together famous stars in both North and South: People's Artist Lan Huong, Hong Anh, Ngoc Lan, Meritorious Artist Truong Minh Quoc Thai, Meritorious Artist Hanh Thuy, Bich Ngoc, Quynh Luong , Thuan Nguyen, Steven Nguyen, Trung Dung, Meritorious Artist Cat Tuong, Meritorious Artist Dai Nghia....
In the film, Ngoc Lan plays Anh Duong - the second daughter-in-law in a wealthy family with a poor background. Entering a rich family, she is loved by her husband (played by Truong Minh Quoc Thai ), but is very ambitious. Anh Duong buried herself in work, neglecting her family with the desire to become an heir.
In the announcement, Ngoc Lan apologized to the audience for not being able to voice the role even though she had done it until episode 35. The reason was because the actress had health problems and was constantly muted. Afraid of affecting the film's broadcast plan, Ngoc Lan proactively asked the crew to invite a voice actor to replace her voice.
With her final role pouring a lot of enthusiasm, Ngoc Lan hopes to be well received by the audience.
