In the program “New Life Storyteller”, Meritorious Artist Kim Tu Long’s first daughter, Maika, had the opportunity to confide her thoughts. She attended theater arts school, danced, acted in films, and participated in voice acting. Even though she is the daughter of a famous artist, she has to do everything herself, but her famous father has never supported or helped pave the way for her. The most surprising thing was that when she attended theater school in her early years, the actress had to support herself by dancing at weddings, performing comedy, and gradually had small roles on television to make money.
After getting married and having children, Maika retired to take care of her family and help with Kim Tu Long’s business. It’s funny that wherever he goes, “King of Cai Luong Ho Quang” always spreads the news that his daughter quit acting: “Dad wants me to stay at home and manage the restaurant for him, then take care of the children. Wherever he goes, he always says: “Maika These days I’m very rich, I own a restaurant, so I don’t act anymore.” Everyone who heard that thought it was true, so when I expressed my desire to return to my profession, everyone thought I was joking, so no one asked me to act anymore.”
Maika does not hide the pressure when her father’s shadow is too big, causing her to be compared and afraid of being scolded. When listening to her sing, the famous male artist advised his child to “give up the idea of a career” and not only teach her when she pursues art. Instead, she was “sister” Trinh Trinh (second wife). Kim Tu Long’s father) teaches singing.

Talking about calling her father’s wife “sister”, Maika explained that she has known Trinh Trinh since childhood and often calls her “sister”. At that time, Trinh Trinh called Kim Tu Long by his uncle. When the two of them got married, Maika couldn’t change the way she addressed herself: “In my heart, I consider Trinh as a mother, who can be by my side, share and confide everything with me. As for Ba Long, I also said is: ‘My family is strong, don’t force me to change because I can’t change’. At that time, my father’s previous wife, Cam Tu’s mother (sister of famous player Hong Son), was younger than Trinh. Call me Mom. Because before that, Cam Tu’s mother and I had no relationship. As soon as I met her, I called her Ms. Tu. After the wedding, I changed my address to Cam Tu’s mother. That means I was already familiar with it , but to me the name is not as important as how we treat each other.” She also added that the relationship between her and her father’s two second wives is quite good and she can always talk intimately.
