Love the wrong best friend is a Vietnamese version of the famous Thai movie - Friend Zone . The movie revolves around the ironic love story between two best friends of the opposite sex.

In the film, Kaity Nguyen will take on the female lead role that was successfully played by Thai actress Baifern Pimchanok in the original version.

Talking about taking on the role of creative director at the same time, Kaity Nguyen shared: “I think it has been a long time since Vietnamese cinema has had a true rom-com (romantic comedy) project. The original script was already interesting, after 5 years we will update it to suit the times and the Vietnamese market. The film will be filmed in many places across Vietnam so the audience will enjoy many beautiful scenes of the country with us.”

Paired with Kaity is actor Tran Ngoc Vang. This is the first time he has worked with Kaity Nguyen. Tran Ngoc Vang said he sees 80% of himself in the male lead character. “Since watching the original, I thought that if there was a remake, I would want to take on the male lead role. I am so happy that the two directors chose me for this project,” Tran Ngoc Vang shared.
