Accordingly, Trung Dung plays the role of Khanh - a member of a group of 6 friends. Khanh is hot-tempered, straightforward and pragmatic, often deciding who to keep and who to remove from the list of people who will be divided the group's 136.8 billion VND lottery jackpot. Not only that, when heavily drunk, Khanh cannot control his actions.
In the climax scene of "Flip Side 6: The Fateful Ticket", Khanh bit and chewed a glass as a way to blame himself. This was a difficult scene to film, not only psychologically but also unprecedented on the Vietnamese big screen.

The team tried many ways to create the cup.
Finally, sugar was chosen as the material for making cups.
To get the most satisfactory cup
Director Ly Hai revealed: "To film this scene, the preparation process took a long time. The crew had to contact all the places that make fake glasses. Because, many people abroad have done it, but not in Vietnam. At first, I made the glasses from nail polish. When I chewed, I could hear the crackling sound, but I was afraid that the chemicals would not be good for my mouth. Then the crew switched to using pine resin, but the color of the glasses was too opaque. Finally, everyone decided to choose sugar, but they had to do it over and over again 20 times to finish. Because if the glasses were too thick, the actors would break their teeth when biting, and if they were too thin, it would not look real. Everything was only completed close to the filming date."
Ly Hai added that the preservation process was very difficult. The crew filmed in Dinh Yen - Dong Thap but the cup was made in Ho Chi Minh City. The crew had to calculate how cold it was so that the sugar would not melt or stick to their hands when it reached the filming location. The cup had to be just the right amount of crunchy so that the actors could hear the crunching sound when biting. Otherwise, the sugar would stick to their teeth and they would not be able to film. The preservation combined with the acting and the actors were very important. Luckily, the crew finally had a satisfactory scene.
Actor Trung Dung confided: "This is the first time in my life that I've had the chance to bite a glass and act out these scenes on film. When I talked to Mr. Hai, he saw that Dung was worried so he reassured me. Mr. Hai told me to focus on acting well, and he would take care of the rest."
The makeup department assisted Trung Dung in the scene.

Before entering the official filming scene, Trung Dung and Quoc Cuong had to rehearse many times to get mentally prepared and maintain their emotions for a long time. Actor Trung Dung added that this was a very attractive scene in the film and also a great experience for the actors.
"Face Off 6: The Fateful Ticket" is still showing in theaters. Despite facing strong competition from the blockbuster "Guardians of the Galaxy 3", "Face Off 6: The Fateful Ticket" still holds the No. 1 spot on the daily box office chart in the Vietnamese market. The film has earned more than VND225 billion - according to statistics from Box Office Vietnam (an independent box office statistics site, with minor errors).
