The program "Newlyweds" with Hong Van met the couple Le Thi Thu Hang (24 years old) and Luyen Huu Manh (32 years old). Currently, the couple lives and works in Tokyo, Japan. According to the sharing, the day the program was recorded was also the 2nd wedding anniversary of Thu Hang - Huu Manh.
Talking to the two MCs, Thu Hang said that she and her husband met in Japan in 2020. At first, they only texted each other via Facebook because Thu Hang lived in Chiba province, while Huu Manh lived in Tokyo. After that, Thu Hang and her friends had the opportunity to visit Tokyo and meet Huu Manh. The first time they met, Huu Manh really liked his wife. However, the two still did not have much feelings for each other.
The chance for the two to get together was when Huu Manh contracted COVID-19, and Thu Hang was also quarantined and not allowed to go to work. Because they had free time, the two talked to each other more often and gradually developed feelings for each other. After recovering from COVID-19, Huu Manh boldly expressed his feelings to Thu Hang and the two became a couple.
However, the couple did not receive support from the bride's family. Even though they have been married for 2 years and have a 9-month-old son, Thu Hang's family still does not accept the groom.
Therefore, the couple has not been able to hold a wedding in their hometown of Hai Duong. Meanwhile, Huu Manh's family is very supportive of this love story. He said that the two will hold a small wedding in Japan as well as a wedding in Thanh Hoa in early 2023.
Talking about the reason her family objected, Thu Hang sadly confided: "The reason is because he lives in Thanh Hoa, and I live in Hai Duong. Before I went to Japan, my father said he would only allow me to marry within a 10km radius.
When I met Mr. Manh, it would have taken about 4 hours to travel by taxi, which was very far for my father. Many times I talked to my father but could only talk for about 3 minutes. Once when I said I wanted to marry Mr. Manh, my father did not agree and hung up. Since then, I probably only talked to my parents 2-3 times a year. Until now, my father is still angry."
Listening to the young girl's story, MC Hong Van expressed her sorrow. Hong Van said: "Perhaps Hang's parents loved her too much because Hang was the eldest child. I understand that in the North, the eldest sister or brother is almost the leader of the younger siblings, that person must set an example in everything for the younger siblings to follow.
However, I feel that Manh loves and cares for Hang very much. On behalf of the program, I also hope that Hang's parents will accept Manh and this small family."
Continuing, Thu Hang shared that her husband cares and worries about her a lot. She also affirmed that up to now, she is very happy to marry Huu Manh. "I hope my parents and family will accept Manh" - she said.
