In the classic version of Journey to the West (1986), the audience was not only impressed with the three adult actors playing the role of Tang Monk, but also especially loved the image of the gentle boy holding a carp to release with a bright smile - Tang Monk in his childhood.
That short but impressive role was given to Thai Vien Hang - an 8-year-old boy at that time who became a memorable part of the classic film.

Thai Vien Hang plays the young Tang Monk in the movie "Journey to the West".
Thai Vien Hang was born in 1975 and participated in filming Journey to the West in 1983 when he was only 8 years old. At that time, the boy had a round face, rosy skin, and big ears - physical features that were considered very suitable for the image of Tang Monk.
Not only does he have a suitable appearance, Thai Vien Hang also shows his natural acting ability, clear eyes and kind smile, making the late director Duong Khiet trust him with the role of young Tang Monk.
Although he only appeared in a short segment, the image of Vien Hang releasing fish to accumulate virtue left a deep impression on the audience. Thanks to this role, the boy named Thai became the most beloved child face on Chinese television at that time.
After Journey to the West, Thai Vien Hang continued to appear in many other famous films, especially taking on the role of the young male lead. These include the role of young Pu Yi in The Last Emperor, young Zhou Ba Jian in Wan Jun, Thai Tong in Love Net, and appearing in The Little Happy Family.
With stable acting, bright face and obedient demeanor, Vien Hang is always the top choice for teenage roles in TV dramas and movies.

Not pursuing an acting career, Thai Vien Hang is now a wealthy businessman.
After graduating, Thai Vien Hang suddenly gave up his artistic career to switch to business - a turning point that surprised many people. Under the guidance of his family, he chose to try his hand at economics and quickly achieved success.
Currently, Thai Vien Hang is the head of a large corporation and is considered a successful young businessman. His rich life and stable career make many people admire him. He once shared: "The stage lights are beautiful, but I find joy and true value in business."
Not only does Thai Vien Hang have a dream career, he also has a happy married life with his famous wife - actress Ton Tay. She is a familiar face on the screen, having made an impression when playing the role of Thuy Can Tich - the close palace maid of Chan Hoan in Zhen Huan Truyen.

In 2013, Thai Vien Hang made the public admire him with his romantic proposal to Ton Tay. The couple's fairytale wedding was held not long after, becoming a notable event. In 2017, the small family happily welcomed a cute baby boy, completing the family of the "little Tang Tang" of the past.
On social media, the couple often shares sweet moments, from trips , weekend outings to anniversaries. Despite retiring from the entertainment industry, audiences can still see Thai Vien Hang appearing in a number of TV shows, where he shares about his married life, memories of his acting days and his transition to business.
