Hoai Linh, Huynh Anh Tuan's manager, said the actor was found unconscious in the bathroom over a week ago. Fortunately, he was quickly discovered and taken to the nearest hospital, then transferred to the University Medical Center in Ho Chi Minh City that same night.

According to his representative, the actor's condition was critical, and family members kept the details private. "Thanks to the dedicated doctors, coupled with his own will, after intensive treatment, he overcame the danger and made a miraculous recovery," the manager said.

The actor has now been discharged and is at home in Ho Chi Minh City. He is undergoing daily physiotherapy to regain some bodily functions, and all work has been postponed. "He can move now, but only for short distances. Full recovery will take time, but his condition is stable," his manager said.
