Thu Trang and Tien Luat reveal the hidden aspects of their marriage and their 10-year career journey on Sao Check.

The celebrity couple Thu Trang and Tien Luat recently appeared on episode 2 of the show "Sao Check," offering insightful perspectives on their journey from the challenging early days of their careers to becoming box office stars. The conversation not only revolved around their film careers but also delved into private aspects of their married life, moderated by presenter Thai Trang.

The journey of overcoming insecurities to build self-confidence.

Before getting married, Tien Luat spent five years persistently courting and two years dating Thu Trang. The actor admitted to facing a lot of pressure and insecurities due to the difference in their professional statuses at the time. While Thu Trang was already a leading actress, Tien Luat was still working behind the scenes and handing out flyers.

Tien Luat's perseverance was the silent support that helped Thu Trang overcome the pressures of her profession. For her part, the female director admitted that she initially felt insecure and only wanted to keep the relationship at a friendship level. It took five years of getting to know each other before she truly opened up and accepted his feelings.

After moving in together, the couple maintained their intimate habits such as kissing before bed and chatting every morning. To rekindle their romance, they sometimes chose to leave home for short stays at hotels, creating private space to warm up their relationship amidst their busy work schedules.

Behind the scenes of film projects and scheduling mishaps.

During the program, Thu Trang also shared about her "billion-dollar" film projects such as "Billion-Dollar Kiss" and "Who Loves Whom." Notably, Tien Luat has always been involved in his wife's works. The actor humorously admitted that he often proactively asks for roles, even creating his own characters, because he cherishes the opportunity to work after a 10-year period of unemployment in the past.

However, this combination sometimes leads to awkward situations. A prime example is when the filming schedule for "Billion Dollar Kiss" coincided with Tien Luat's participation in the "Brother Overcoming a Thousand Obstacles" program. The actor's unexpected progress to the later rounds caused difficulties for Thu Trang in arranging her schedule, leading her to even hope her husband would be eliminated early so he could focus on the family's film project.

Emotional touchpoint at Sao Check

Concluding the conversation, both artists expressed satisfaction with the dialogue space on the show. Tien Luat emphasized the sense of safety and sincerity in Sao Check's approach to questions, where artists can freely share without worrying about trick questions or clickbait headlines.

Episode 2 of Sao Check, featuring Thu Trang and Tien Luat, will be broadcast at 10:05 PM on Friday, January 9, 2026, on VTV3. The program offers viewers a glimpse into the genuine emotions behind the glamour of one of the most powerful couples in Vietnamese cinema today.
