According to QQ, the incident involving actress Ho Lien Hinh being leaked in a 20-minute clip during a private chat with her boyfriend has made her the focal point of public attention. Although the provocative images were controlled, the reputation of the star from the Love of the Fallen series has still been affected, even leading to disruptions in her career.
From a Rising Star to Controversy
Born in 2000, Ho Lien Hinh is currently a rising star, contributing to major television projects such as The Detective and the Magician, The Human World, Love of the Fallen, and Youth in Spring. Despite not having a vast reputation yet, Ho Lien Hinh has been highlighted as the main character in Youth in Spring. She also played the role of Son Dung Dung in Love of the Fallen, with the lead character portrayed by Duong Mich. The project drew attention right from its inception and is expected to be a blockbuster in the future, elevating Ho Lien Hinh’s name to new heights.
With her striking beauty and outstanding talent, Ho Lien Hinh is indeed a personality that management companies are keenly interested in. At the beginning of May, she graced the cover of Glass magazine, capturing the spotlight among the 10X generation’s most promising stars. Prior to this, the website Sohu also praised Ho Lien Hinh as the leading 10X talent with a bright future ahead.
However, the scandal involving the hot clip with her boyfriend has completely ruined Ho Lien Hinh’s innocent image. Unlike the past incident where Canh Diem was an innocent victim caught in a scandal, Ho Lien Hinh is revealed to have engaged in intimate chats, which were later recorded. As a result, she has been criticized as a ‘bad girl’ with a separate lifestyle that deviates from the public image.
Moreover, Ho Lien Hinh has faced a backlash, being labeled as a star lacking professionalism. According to QQ, the entertainment industry has been quite harsh in judging her behavior. Although she is young, the requirements of maintaining a professional image are crucial, and with such scandals, many believe her career may be severely impacted.
Leaked Intimate Videos: A Heavy Burden
According to QQ, Ho Lien Hinh’s intimate images were not widely circulated, and this is largely due to the public’s sensitivity to her current situation. Nevertheless, the act of leaking intimate videos, especially at her age, is a heavy burden that could significantly affect her future in the entertainment industry.
In April 2023, another actress, Canh Diem, faced scandal with her boyfriend, the famous table tennis player Truong Ke Khoa. He used video and intimate images of Canh Diem to blackmail her. The media has reported on this scandal, prompting authorities to intervene.
Canh Diem became a victim in this situation, but when the scandal broke, it significantly affected her career. Many fans began actively searching for intimate videos of Canh Diem, leading to a concerning trend of using AI technology to superimpose actresses’ faces onto adult content.
However, the repercussions of this leak extend beyond immediate reactions; it causes long-term damage to the reputations of involved stars, impacting their careers and personal lives.
In 2008, the Asian entertainment industry was rocked when 1,300 intimate images of Tran Quan Hy were leaked, affecting many actresses, including Chung Han Dong and Truong Ba Chi, who faced serious consequences for their careers.
These scandals have led to severe repercussions, such as Chung Han Dong, who transitioned from a popular Hong Kong actress to a hidden figure, even affecting her marriage. Now over 40, she still struggles to find stability in her personal and professional life.
According to QQ, Ho Lien Hinh is still not widely known, but if she continues to attract attention, the scandal involving intimate chats will likely become a permanent association with her name. Thus, management companies and production houses may hesitate to work with a star with such a tarnished reputation. QQ estimates that this scandal has severely damaged the budding career of this 10X star.
