1. National Meritorious Artist Hồ Kiểng (1926 - 2013)
An exceptional artist dedicating a lifetime to the performing arts, featuring in over 200 films, participating in more than 300 radio dramas, almost 50 stage plays, and performing in 12 reformed opera productions. Yet, his entire life was spent in the same old house that once housed a power generator. Living in poverty and loneliness, his smile perpetually graced his lips. Despite the title of a distinguished artist and a lifetime contribution to the arts, Hồ Kiểng lived in a dilapidated house until the end of his days, along with a pension of 1 million VND/month.
