On March 6, the ceremony to award the titles of People's Artist (NSND) and Meritorious Artist (NSUT) after many postponements will take place at the Hanoi Opera House. Among the Southern artists who were awarded the title of NSUT this time, actor Quy Binh (real name Le Ngoc Binh) is the face that receives the attention of the audience. More than 10 years ago, Quy Binh was considered a "male god" of the Vietnamese screen, possessing a handsome and masculine face. Although he came from a family with no one in the arts, Quy Binh showed his acting talent from a young age.

After graduating from high school, Quy Binh asked his family to take the entrance exam to the University of Theater and Cinema but was prevented. Therefore, the actor registered to join the army, became a Border Guard soldier in Can Gio, then was transferred to the Command Headquarters on Cong Quynh Street (HCMC). Here, Quy Binh convinced his unit to let him study acting. During his years studying at the University of Theater and Cinema in HCMC, the artist born in 1983 had all the necessary skills, dubbed his own voice for each role and was highly appreciated by his seniors for his ability. The actor once shared: "If I had rushed into acting early when I was not good at the profession, I would have 'died' following mediocre supporting roles with immature acting." After graduating, Quy Binh was invited to participate in the movie "Female Doctor" and easily received the main role after the casting round. Thanks to his good acting, film crews came to him one after another. Since then, Quy Binh has left his mark through roles in "Hoai biet", "Ca ro! I love you", "Bim bip calls in the afternoon", "Advertising company love story", "Even though the wind blows"...
