Artist Quyen Linh remembers the poor times, cries while remembering Le Cong Tuan Anh
Artist Quyen Linh unexpectedly answered that he now has “no more dreams” when he became a guest on “Weekend Appointment” episode 4. He also recalled many difficult and memorable times, including the story with Le Cong Tuan Anh.
Quyen Linh has always appeared simply, so the image of the outstanding outfit on the stage of Cuoc Hen Cuoi Tuan episode 4 - broadcast at 8pm on July 23 on VTV3 - surprised the audience. Quyen Linh honestly said that he is still most comfortable when... wearing honeycomb slippers. To fulfill this wish, the producers prepared many pairs of honeycomb slippers in different colors for the guests, MC and band to wear the same "uniform".
The male artist had the opportunity to recall the thatched hut that contained happiness and obsession. It was a boy who longed to have his father by his side like his friends; it was the endless years of poverty... Quyen Linh once dreamed of having a job related to agriculture, did not dare to dream of becoming an artist, did not dare to dream of setting foot in Ho Chi Minh City.

The difficult childhood was not the most difficult time for him, but the time when artist Quyen Linh started his career was even poorer than when he was in the countryside. His close friends became famous and stars one after another, but Quyen Linh was still unknown, to the point of self-consciousness.
Quyen Linh had to work hard to make a living: working as a porter in the market, begging for crushed food to eat, to sell, working for hire. Even when he graduated from the Academy of Theater and Cinema, when he got his diploma, he was... unemployed. In desperation, Quyen Linh once returned to his hometown, but he returned to the city.
“A rough, thorny person, with nothing left to suffer” is what Quyen Linh said about himself. He always had artist friends who loved him and shared the good and the bad. One of them was actor Le Cong Tuan Anh. In a conversation with BTV Long Vu, Quyen Linh shed tears when remembering his talented friend, the last time he met him with the last gift, the person whose grave he and his friends would go to burn incense and tell stories to on every death anniversary like the old days together.
