Bac Dau, also known by the affectionate name - Co Dau, is a very special character in the Tao Quan series. This character has a fierce and erratic personality, requiring the actor to constantly change in acting.
During the more than 20 years of Tao Quan broadcasting, the role of Bac Dau was assigned to People's Artist Cong Ly.
People's Artist Cong Ly successfully created the character image of Bac Dau.
The majority of audiences commented that only People's Artist Cong Ly could play the role of Bac Dau so well.
Notably, in 2023, when People's Artist Cong Ly was seriously ill and unable to meet the strenuous training requirements of Tao Quan , the program still invited him to make a brief appearance to respond to the audience's affection for the character and the program.
In 2024, in the face of much controversy over who will play Bac Dau instead of People's Artist Cong Ly, the producer of the Tao Quan program left this role open in the program without assigning it to anyone. This shows that the character Bac Dau played by People's Artist Cong Ly is still a "monument" that not everyone dares to challenge.
However, in 2022, when People's Artist Cong Ly suffered a stroke and had not yet recovered, Tao Quan was forced to replace the person playing the role of Bac Dau. The actor chosen for this "difficult" role was Trung Ruoi - who was once known as the "ugliest actor in the Northern comedy scene".

Trung Ruoi's real name is Nguyen Ha Trung, born in 1993 in Hanoi. Before becoming an actor, due to difficult family circumstances, he had to do many jobs to make ends meet.
Trung Ruoi himself failed the entrance exam twice before officially becoming a student at the Hanoi Academy of Theatre and Cinema. However, because of his not-so-good looks, he encountered many difficulties when he started his career.
The actor shared on VTC News : "In the beginning of my career, I spent a year auditioning and was haunted by casting sessions. There were times when I came and just introduced my name and they kicked me out because I was too ugly. I had to follow the extras to get into the film."
With his love for art, Trung Ruoi gradually showed his ability. He began to be noticed by the audience when he became a member of the comedy groups Kem Xoi TV, Loa Phuong...
Trung Ruoi also built his own direction with comedy skits revolving around ethnic minorities. At this time, the actor's "strangely ugly" face and his honest, simple features became the highlights that helped him attract audiences.
Dubbed the "ugliest actor in the Northern comedy scene", Trung Ruoi is still loved by the audience.
In recent years, Trung Ruoi has appeared more in television projects and movies. He is especially loved through television series: 11 thang 5 ngay, Gia dinh minh vui bat thuc, Noi giac mo tim ve. Most recently, Trung Ruoi played the role of a lustful building manager in the movie Don't hesitate to marry just need one reason .
It can be said that, although not possessing a very good-looking appearance, Trung Ruoi still affirms his acting ability and receives a lot of sympathy from the audience.
The fact that Trung Ruoi is present in the cast of Tao Quan and is assigned to take on the role of Bac Dau to replace People's Artist Cong Ly in Tao Quan 2022 further shows that he is recognized for his ability by seniors such as Chi Trung, Tu Long, Quang Thang...
Trung Ruoi is the first 9X actor to play the role of Co Dau instead of People's Artist Cong Ly.
Of course, Trung Ruoi's role as Bac Dau in Tao Quan 2022 cannot achieve the same good effect as his predecessor who has nearly 20 years of experience. However, the character Bac Dau played by the young actor is considered to be well-rounded and "suitable".
Trung Ruoi himself also recognized that he would encounter conflicting opinions. The actor said: “Having conflicting comments is something that everyone in the arts has experienced at least once.
No matter what field you work in, you will encounter such conflicting opinions. I just always try to work to the best of my ability and strength in the profession that I love and have chosen."
Trung Ruoi's small family.
From a guy who failed the acting class, had to work as a porter and shipper to earn money to pursue his passion, Trung Ruoi has risen up and has a certain position in the entertainment industry.
Up to now, the actor is not only loved by the audience and recognized by his colleagues, but also has a happy marriage. He married dancer Ngoc Ha and currently has a lovely daughter. Trung Ruoi's daughter also appeared in the movie Thuong ngay nang ve when she was just over 1 year old.
