On December 4, the showcase for the project “Láºt Mặt 8: Vòng Tay Nắng” took place in Ho Chi Minh City. This project has garnered significant attention from the media as it is part of a film series that has consistently created a buzz over the years. Notably, this marks a significant moment as it represents the culmination of a decade-long journey since the launch of the series “Äá»™c Nhất Vô Nhị” on the big screen.
In addition to the participation of director Lý Hải and producer Minh Hà , the event featured a star-studded lineup including artists such as NSƯT Kim Phượng, NSƯT Hữu Châu, Ngân Quỳnh, NSƯT Tuyết Thu, Quách Ngá»c Tuyá»n, along with talented actors like TÃn Nguyá»…n, Minh Khuê, Tạ Lâm, Äoà n Thế Vinh, Yuno Bigboi, and more.
The excitement surrounding the event was even more heightened by the involvement of TikToker Lê Tuấn Khang, who is expected to make an appearance in this film project. Previously, a clip of the male TikToker auditioning for “Láºt Mặt 8” had gone viral, with many viewers eager to see him on the big screen. Since then, there has been ongoing discussion about Lê Tuấn Khang’s role in the film, making him a hot topic among fans.
At the “Láºt Mặt 8” showcase, Tuấn Khang’s participation was confirmed by the producer, putting an end to speculation. However, during the important event, the male actor was yet to make an appearance in front of the media. When asked about the role of the current social media sensation, Lý Hải expressed apologies to Tuấn Khang because he did not recognize him during the casting. “Before this, I hadn’t known who Lê Tuấn Khang was. I thought Khang was suitable for the role, but I had no idea what kind of actor he was or how he would perform until viewers come to see the movie,” he stated.
Speaking of TikToker Lê Tuấn Khang, before receiving the award at the TikTok Awards Vietnam 2024, his TikTok channel had over 3.9 million followers. However, by December 4, his follower count had skyrocketed to 11.5 million—a rapid increase unprecedented in Vietnam. He had previously become a popular content creator with a dedicated fanbase. However, following a minor incident during the TikTok award ceremony and the release of a clip showcasing Lê Tuấn Khang, his fame continued to rise dramatically.
His latest video garnered nearly 200 million views within just 24 hours, and as of now, it has surpassed 363 million views without any signs of slowing down. Lê Tuấn Khang’s explosive growth has created a unique footprint that is hard to replicate in the future. Therefore, many viewers commented that Lý Hải’s collaboration with Lê Tuấn Khang is like “adding wings to a fish,” indicating a smart business move, especially with the upcoming release on April 30, 2025, expected to be a complete success.
