Mang me di boi, a Vietnamese-Korean co-production, depicts a son’s journey of taking care of his mother with Alzheimer’s disease. The film has not officially been released in theaters but will be shown early from 6pm on July 30 and 31.
After the first day of early screenings, Box Office Vietnam's revenue on the morning of July 31 was recorded at 14 billion VND. This figure includes pre-booked tickets for later screenings.

On July 30, when Mang Me Di Bo had not yet shown its early screening time, the film still attracted the attention of the film industry when it reached about 4 billion VND in revenue from pre-booked tickets, surpassing Detective Conan: Afterimage of the One-Eyed in terms of revenue for the day.
By the first night of early screenings, when audiences began to go to the theaters to buy tickets directly, the film's revenue increased dramatically.
Trailer of the movie Take mother away
Abandoning Mother takes Alzheimer's - a disease that is gradually becoming a serious social issue - as the central material. The film is the heart and soul of director and screenwriter Mo Hong Jin, nurtured and developed over the course of 3 years.
Through the story of maternal love, Mang Me Di Bo conveys the value of family, while expanding on aspects of friendship, love and sharing between people in difficult circumstances.

After the film was released, the general audience wrote many reviews of the film on social media. Most of them praised the acting of the two main actors, Hong Dao and Tuan Tran. They "not only acted but also truly transformed" into the characters, bringing the image of a mother with Alzheimer's disease and the son who accompanied her.
One viewer said that the film's pacing had a small drawback when the transition between parts was not very smooth. The second half of the film with the events in Korea felt a bit disjointed and strange.
'Thank you Tuan Tran, I see our brothers in there'
The question many people asked before watching the film was whether Mang Me Di Bo accurately portrayed the image of people with Alzheimer's disease. We need to wait for more viewers to see the film, especially families with relatives with Alzheimer's disease, to fully answer this question.
On the evening of July 30, a viewer wrote an emotional post about his mother who had been suffering from Alzheimer's disease for more than 10 years. She passed away nearly 100 days ago.

During those 10 years, the whole family worked together, with the youngest uncle staying home to take care of his grandmother and watch over his grandfather. "Thank you Tuan Tran for playing your role so well - so that I can see a little bit of us in it!" - he wrote.
"Vietnamese family affection is great" is the message that Korean director Mo Hong Jin wants to convey through the film.
