What do the actors have to say about 'Tet Comedy Show 2024'?

The 2024 Tet Comedy Show aired with many changes in both script and cast. These changes were not well-received by most viewers, with many expressing disappointment. Not only was the show criticized for being bland, but it was also accused of blatant advertising, embedding product promotions from brands into the characters' dialogue and actions.

Following the audience's reaction, Thanh Huong, the actress making her debut,Kitchen GodShe shared that she and the other artists had put in a lot of effort:"I just try my best in my role, and the changes to the program or the replacement of the cast are the responsibility of the producers and directors; we don't have control over that. However, I think that any changes are carefully planned by the team.""

Thanh Huong also shared that being present at this year's program was incredibly fortunate for her, because participating in "Tao Quan" is a dream for many artists, and many people want to appear in the program, regardless of the role.

Thanh Huong shared:"I understand that we young artists still have many shortcomings. However, the newer and less experienced we are, the harder we strive to do our best in the program."

Throughout our participation in 'Tao Quan 2024', we received dedicated guidance from senior artists such as Quoc Khanh, Tu Oanh, and Do Thanh Hai. New artists like us put in a lot of effort and were not lazy at all.

Regarding not meeting audience expectations, we can only say we will try harder to improve ourselves. To be honest, we never thought about replacing or comparing ourselves to the previous cast of 'Tao Quan'. Their roles in the show have been their trademark for the past 20 years.”

Actor Li Zhihui shared:“This year I play the role of a resident in a mini-apartment building where the Jade Emperor visits to observe the people's living conditions. I feel fortunate to still be able to perform in 'Tao Quan' alongside Quoc Khanh – an older brother figure who has guided us a great deal.”

Actually, the personnel changes in 'Tet Comedy Show 2024' have had a significant impact on our cast. The biggest impact on the remaining artists in this year's Tet Comedy Show is nostalgia. If the audience is familiar with the image of the 'Tet Comedy Show' characters over the past 20 years, then we are also very familiar with the acting styles and images of those senior artists."

According to Li Zhihui, the remaining artists in the program also faced a lot of pressure from the changes and re-casting.: "This change has left us feeling uncertain, anxious, and pressured. All we can do is try our best to deliver the highest quality program to our audience.

I think the changes to 'Tao Quan' this year are a surprise. Like many viewers, I hope that in future years the show will feature appearances from the previous 'Tao' characters."

Regarding audience feedback on the show, Li Zhihui said:"We take all audience feedback into account. Every artist in the 'Tao Quan' show is constantly striving to improve and meet audience expectations. We hope the audience will enjoy the program."
