The supporting actress's beauty is drawing attention as she stars alongside Thanh Sơn

Hanoi [Vietnam], February 9: In the currently airing drama 'Countdown Clock', supporting actress Yen My is attracting attention for her role as Minh Anh, the girlfriend of the male lead played by Thanh Son.
In some prime-time dramas, many supporting actresses appear to enrich the plot and then fade away within a few episodes. But with Yen My in "Countdown Clock ," the story takes a different turn: she enters the film with a sweet appearance and natural acting. And after only a few episodes, the character Minh Anh has already "made waves" by becoming the focus of debate for choosing to abandon the love of the male lead ( Thanh Son ) to pursue material wealth.
In The Countdown Clock , Minh Anh isn't the boisterous or villainous character built around dramatic plot twists. The appeal of this role lies in its initial gentleness: its innocent charm and soft demeanor easily win the audience's trust. Therefore, when the script pushes Minh Anh to the point of betraying her lover, the viewers' reaction immediately erupts.
Many opinions on social media criticized the character as "pragmatic," "exchanging love for money," and even argued that Minh Anh's betrayal was too heartless. However, alongside these criticisms were more understanding viewpoints, suggesting that Minh Anh's choice reflects a very real and pragmatic mindset among young women today: choosing safety, choosing a less risky path even knowing it will hurt the person they love and sometimes betray their own feelings.
Although she is only a supporting female character, placed in a context with specific reasons, temptations, and a struggle between feelings and self-interest, Minh Anh becomes a character that contributes to raising the pace of the film and creating emotional climaxes for the main storyline played by Thanh Sơn.
For Yen My, the role of Minh Anh brought considerable pressure. She shared that although she had mentally prepared for the strong reactions from the audience when the character entered controversial developments , she still felt quite pressured and anxious. Also from "Countdown Clock ," Yen My's beauty received more attention with her sweet, innocent look, fitting the image of Thanh Son's "on-screen lover" in the early episodes of the series.
