He was lured back to the stage when filming contracts were somewhat leisurely. He accepted and told director Minh Nguyet that he wanted her to re-stage the play after a 25-year hiatus. In 1999, he watched the play and was fascinated by the role of People's Artist Diep Lang. A topic about homosexuality but very profound and meaningful.

Now newly staged, the play has a contemporary feel, giving young actors more room to perform. "I think you have put in a lot of effort and will do better in the upcoming performances of the work with the audience's support," said artist Trung Dan.
