On August 8, the film The Guardian held its premiere, which captivated audiences with its collaboration between two prominent stars. At the event, aside from the images of Ko Tien Lac and Banh Vu Yen, there were many unexpected moments, especially the noticeable change in appearance of Ko Tien Lac.
HK01 reported on the film The Guardian, drawing significant attention from viewers. However, the rapid transformation of Ko Tien Lac’s appearance quickly became a topic of controversy. In the frame of the crew, Ko Tien Lac’s face no longer appeared as natural as before, instead, it seemed to have undergone enhancements and looked more vibrant.
Notably, when standing next to Banh Vu Yen, Ko Tien Lac appeared even more distinct in appearance. Recently, Chinese media also frequently shared many images of Banh Vu Yen in The Guardian, showcasing the style of “Hoang Phi Hong,” which has transformed into a more mature version.
This is not the first time Ko Tien Lac has sparked controversy over his appearance. Previously, during promotional events for the film Bao Trang 3, Ko Tien Lac also caught media attention for his transformed looks, which were described as “quite dreadful.” He received numerous comments regarding his “plastic surgery,” while others noted that it was simply due to the actor aging and not resembling the young Duong Qua from Thần Điêu Đại Hiệp.
The Guardian focuses on topics of crime prevention, highlighting the various nuances in pursuit of justice while not shying away from the darker aspects of human nature. Alongside Ko Tien Lac and Banh Vu Yen, the film also features several renowned stars such as Lam Bao Di, Khương Hạo Văn, and La Hạo Minh. Before the premiere, the film was rumored to have the participation of Truong Hoc Huu, but after the premiere, the name “Thien Vuong” did not appear in the official cast list.
