The action series 'White Fire', directed by Bui Quoc Viet, has been airing since mid-June and has quickly gained popularity for its gripping portrayal of crime and drug trafficking. After two months on air, the show has maintained its appeal by showcasing the intricate operations of criminals and featuring characters that blur the lines between good and evil. Recent behind-the-scenes videos shared by the cast and crew on social media have attracted significant attention, offering fans insight into the making of some of the action sequences.

In episode 12, the character Cung, played by Truong Hoang, faces an ambush while returning to his territory in Son Hai province. He is drugged but cleverly pretends to be unconscious to turn the tables on his attackers. The filming of such intense scenes involves extensive preparation, especially in confined spaces like cars, where actors rehearse multiple times to ensure authenticity and safety.

Truong Hoang, known for his roles in 'Quynh Bup Be' and 'Huong Vi Tinh Than', expressed that the most challenging aspect of his role was finding a fresh way to portray his character, from his expressions to his reactions in various situations. In episode 14, Mai, played by Viet Hoa, takes on the role of a representative for a company run by the drug lord Lao Cong, which serves as a cover for illegal activities. As a former police officer, she is tasked with pretending to be the drug lord's estranged daughter, putting her in the crosshairs of dangerous factions.

During the filming of a scene where Mai is attacked in a hospital, stunt doubles were used for safety due to the complexity of the stunts. Despite not performing the stunts directly, Viet Hoa dedicated time to martial arts training to prepare for her role, which she views as an opportunity to step outside her comfort zone. The production team also included real police officers in various action scenes, such as a thrilling chase involving drug dealers, supported by armored vehicles and nearly 50 riot police officers.

In addition to the action, the behind-the-scenes footage reveals a lighter side of the filming process. For instance, in episode 4, a scene where Truc, played by Thanh Hue, confronts Mai over a misunderstanding garnered 2.4 million views on social media. The dynamic between the characters adds depth to the storyline, while humorous moments during filming showcase the camaraderie among the cast.

As the series progresses, the plot thickens, with episode 18 featuring Lao Cong instructing Cung to set a trap for Cuong, whom he suspects of betrayal. Mai's quick thinking leads her to signal Cuong to escape, adding to the tension and drama. 'White Fire' stands out from other crime dramas due to its contemporary themes and incorporation of current events, such as the use of drones for drug delivery, a concept inspired by real-life reports.
