Sharing with VietNamNet , Ly Hung said that in the past few years, he has received many invitations, eager to return from directors and producers. However, the actor had to refuse them all because they were not suitable and he felt he was not "lucky" enough.

Although he does not act in films, Ly Hung regularly follows the film market. The actor believes that this is a potential time for domestic films to develop.

In the field of cinema, Ly Hung is confident that he is not a "newbie". More than 30 years ago, the actor was a box office guarantee, recognized by the Guinness Book of Vietnam Records as "The actor with the most leading roles in Vietnam" with more than 60 films.

In the 1990s, Ly Hung's salary was the highest in Vietnam. Especially, after his role in Pham Cong - Cuc Hoa , he became an A-list star and participated in many hit projects.

The actor said that if he compared his salary in the past with the present, for each role he was paid 5-10 billion VND by the filmmaker. This amount of money was enough to buy a luxury car or even a house or a new property.

Even though he earns a lot of money, Ly Hung does not have the habit of spending lavishly. After completing each project, he sends all his salary to his mother to keep.

Ly Hung is good at making money but doesn't know how to spend it. He gives all his salary to his mother to keep.

“Since I was young, I have had a large sum of money in my hands. Luckily, I didn’t care about money, I just worked hard every day on the set, filming from early morning to late at night without getting tired. I have kept the money and am stable like now thanks to my mother,” he revealed.

Thanks to a solid foundation with his father, People's Artist Ly Huynh - a martial artist and "boss" of martial arts films, and his mother, who is good at economics , Ly Hung's family has lived comfortably for the past few decades. His siblings all have their own successful businesses, some of them are real estate entrepreneurs.

Despite his wealth, Ly Hung modestly denies being a tycoon. The actor believes that money should not be measured because each person has different needs. Personally, he likes a simple life, not trying to be too high or demanding.

I will announce the wedding, no time to be sad

Having been off the screen for a long time, Ly Hung is confident that his appeal and reputation in showbiz have not diminished compared to his heyday. Every time he goes out, the audience shows their love and always praises the handsome and stylish actor.

Coming from a martial arts family, he is conscious of maintaining his appearance in the best condition. In addition to a diet and regular activities, the actor spends 4-5 days a week exercising such as jogging, going to the gym, swimming and practicing martial arts... He has maintained this habit regularly for the past several decades.

Actor Ly Hung remembers the advice from his late father - People's Artist Ly Huynh to try to live and work cleanly.

On the other hand, according to Ly Hung, one main reason why people respect him is because of his clean lifestyle and lack of scandals.

The actor always remembers his father's advice when he was alive: " Being famous is 100 times difficult, but maintaining fame is 1000 times more difficult." When People's Artist Ly Huynh passed away, he tried to live according to his father's teachings, not letting himself get involved in scandals or scandals that would affect his family's reputation.

In his youth, he was a playboy and had a famous career. Now, Ly Hung is single because he has not found a suitable partner.

The actor believes that everyone desires a home, a wife and children - he is no exception. Since he was young, he was so engrossed in his career that he sometimes forgot to find time to find his own happiness.

He has loved, had broken relationships and is still single. Having been through a few relationships, the actor believes that everything is fate. Everyone has different circumstances so he has to learn to accept them.

In Ly Hung's eyes, his ideal partner now is not much different from when he was young. He likes a cute, understanding woman who can share his passion for work, the joys and sorrows of life, and build a family.

“I really hope to soon announce Ly Hung’s wedding to the audience. I’m not in a hurry because I’ve been waiting for decades, so what’s the point of waiting a little longer?” he said.
