In director Trinh Le Phong's series, the actress portrays Trang, Duong’s (Tien Loc) partner, who appears amidst the cracks in his marriage to Dieu (Quynh Chau). In recent developments, Duong’s infidelity is discovered by his wife, leading to divorce.

Thanh Tam shared that upon reading the script, she recognized Trang as a character with many hidden psychological facets. During filming, she received guidance from the director in analyzing the role. Her co-star, Tien Loc, also discussed how to approach each scene. According to Thanh Tam, he was open and actively supportive, which helped her feel at ease during their scenes together.

The kissing scene between Trang and Duong in episode 10 was one of the most nerve-wracking for the actress. She and Tien Loc spent time discussing it before filming to ensure quick execution.

The actress shared that her family and friends were surprised by her different image in the film. Portraying Trang, she anticipated that audiences would discuss, and even react strongly to, the character. She stated her commitment to separating her role from her real-life self, while also listening to constructive public feedback.

Le Tran Thanh Tam grew up in a family with no artistic background. From a young age, watching television dramas, she nurtured a dream of becoming an actress. Encouraged by friends, she decided to apply to Hanoi University of Theater and Cinema, where she was the top entrance scorer.

Her family fully supported the actress’s decision. According to Thanh Tam, her parents always wanted her to do what she loved, offering support and daily reminders.

Before the series 'Under the Brightly Lit Window', Thanh Tam was cast in a lead role as Princess Tien Dung in the historical film 'Huyen tinh Da Trach', directed by Ton Van. She acknowledged this opportunity as fortunate but also felt the pressure it brought for a young actress. She views each project as a challenge, helping her mature.

“I am still in a learning phase, with much to refine. I hope audiences will recognize me through my roles and my professional progress”, Thanh Tam said.

Thanh Tam stated her admiration for People's Artist Minh Hoa, her teacher, from whom she has learned much about acting experience and professional attitude. In the future, she aims to be a dynamic actress, not confined to any single image.

Alongside acting, Thanh Tam also works as a photo model for additional income.

In her free time, the actress enjoys strolling, listening to music, or trying delicious food. She also focuses on gym workouts to maintain her figure.
