Biography
Daung's birth name is Thura Aung, but his stage name (ဒေါင်း, meaning 'Peafowl') is what stuck in Myanmar's film world. He transitioned from professional football to acting, landing his breakthrough role in the 2019 film The Only Mom, which made him a household name across the country. What set him apart in Burmese cinema was his commitment to method acting—a grounded, psychologically precise style that contrasted sharply with the melodramatic conventions dominating local film at the time. Actors typically balance character work with public visibility; Daung chose to let his performances speak loudest. As an Aries, he embodies the archetype of the trailblazer—willing to pioneer a new approach to his craft when the industry expected convention. Myanmar-born, he remains a defining figure in contemporary Burmese cinema, proving that understated intensity can outpace theatrical excess in winning audiences.
