The exhibition attracted the attention of many young people. Khuong Duy (Binh Tan District, Ho Chi Minh City) said: "I was quite excited to learn about the culture of other ethnic groups. I am especially impressed with the then-song lyrics. Because the rustic sound and resounding melody of the industrialist sound create a feeling of overflowing energy".
