People's Artist Cong Ly returns after a year of serious illness

A member of the film crew said that People's Artist Cong Ly plays Giang's father (played by La Thanh Huyen) in the film directed by Vu Truong Khoa. This character is constantly drunk, has a stroke and has some emotional scenes with his daughter. Every time he goes to the set, People's Artist Cong Ly is accompanied by his wife Ngoc Ha.

Cong Ly has no intention of returning to the film set at this time, but was encouraged by director Vu Truong Khoa to take on a guest role to ease his longing for the profession. During the days of filming, the artist was very happy because his colleagues and juniors took good care of him and visited him regularly. Everyone was happy because his health was improving and he could handle the job.

On the evening of June 5, beauty Ngoc Ha - Cong Ly's wife - shared on her personal page her husband's joy after attending the group's off-site meeting.Ex-husband, ex-wife, ex-lover.She thanked the crew for always taking care of her husband and said that everyone's love as well as this role is a spiritual medicine that no amount of money can buy for him.

Looking back at the time she spent with her husband on his journey to treatment, Ngoc Ha wrote: "A year is not too long, not too short, but it is also a harsh truth for an artist like Mr. Ly. Illness spares no one. Sometimes it is fate. But even when the doctor told me to prepare myself mentally, I still did not believe it and remained optimistic. Optimism helps me to this day still hold Mr. Ly's hand to go to the hospital regardless of heavy rain or hot sun."

Ngoc Ha said that although he has overcome the danger, People's Artist Cong Ly still has to undergo daily rehabilitation treatment at the hospital or at home. Since he got sick, he has changed a lot. Sometimes he gets angry because he is tired during physical therapy, but then he apologizes if he makes his wife sad. He is more obedient and informs her about everything.

Cong Ly had a health incident in mid-July 2021, at times 'on the verge of death' and had to be hospitalized for many months. During the time her husband was sick, Ngoc Ha became the family's breadwinner and his greatest support. Ngoc Ha felt lucky because her husband was cared for by good and dedicated doctors and technicians. The artist's health has improved positively thanks to hard work. She believes he will soon fully recover to return to his passionate work.

Cong Ly was born in 1973 in a family with no artistic tradition in Hanoi. In addition to the role of Bac Dau inTao Quanand dozens of plays, he made his mark on television with filmsWhen the widower burst into tears, Wind in Kinh village, Storm over the village, Afternoon across the old street, Girls in the city,Sunflower against the sun,Taste of love...

He was awarded the title of People's Artist by the State in September 2020 and was promoted to Deputy Director of Hanoi Drama Theater in May 2020.
