Early life
Phương Oanh was born in Phủ Lý, Hà Nam province. She has three siblings: older sisters Do Phuong Dung and Do Hong Nhung, and younger brother Do Binh Minh. Although she was born into a well-off family, when she was in 9th grade, her parents' business went downhill, so Phuong Oanh did not have the conditions to go to extra classes like many of her peers. To help her parents, she decided not to go to extra classes and studied at home for three years of high school to avoid spending more on tuition.[2]

2008-2011: Modeling
From 2008 until 2011, Oanh was a freelance model. She tried her hand at the "Vietnam Jewelry Queen" contest in 2008 when she was a second-year student, but did not progress very far due to lack of experience. As a model, Oanh modeled for advertisements and participated in fashion shows. She ultimately decided not to move forward with beauty pageants, and instead tried for forge a career in acting.[3]
2012-present: Acting and singing
Since 2012, Phương Oanh has appeared in multiple television series and films. Her first role was Vuong Thi Hoa in the film Hoa bay on HTV9 channel, which was received positively by audiences. At the start of her career, she endured psychological pressure from the online community and skepticism about her acting, which caused her to drink excessively.[4]
Oanh received positive media coverage after the release of the 2018 film Quỳnh búp bê, in which she played the titular Quỳnh, a girl forced into prostitution. Oanh said about the film's production, "the most difficult thing...was having to lower my ego, because in real life I am very sensitive, very emotional and even agitated, sometimes even slightly sensitive words make me bristle. When playing the role of a prostitute, the words for Quynh were crude, even vulgar. Therefore, I had to put aside my ego to live with the character's circumstances and life, to feel in harmony and get used to the character".[5]
In early 2023, she released the music video "Tay trái chỉ trăng (Upwards to the Moon)" (Vietnamese lyrics from the song of the same name performed by Chinese singer Sa Dingding in the movie Ashes of Love). The MV was released on January 15, 2023.[6]

Personal life
Oanh is married to businessman Nguyen Hoa Binh (Shark Binh). The two were dating by August 2022; at the time Binh was married to Dao Lan Huong, although the two had agreed to divorce,[7] which was official by May 2023.[8][9]
The couple married on June 15, 2023, at the People's Committee of Liem Chinh Ward.[10] At the end of July, they held their engagement and wedding ceremonies. However, the wedding scheduled for November 11 was postponed because the actress was pregnant with twins and suffered from severe morning sickness during the wedding preparations, so all plans had to be changed. After much consideration, Phuong Oanh and Shark Binh felt that they could not prepare for a complete and proper wedding, so they decided to postpone it until their two children were born.[11] On May 14, 2024, Oanh gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, at a hospital in Hanoi.[12]
