MC Dinh Toan led the show with the question: "When do couples often go to a psychologist?". Psychologist Nguyen Ngoc Quynh Dao believes that often happens when marriage falls into a deadlock. Because love is like music - there are ups and downs, and to maintain a harmonious melody, both must be adjusted together.
Hoai Minh and Bang Chau met at the University of Theatre and Cinema, in the same course, in the same class, and gradually developed feelings for each other through time studying and acting together. Recalling his student days, Hoai Minh shared: In those days, we had to borrow your bicycle to go out. Difficult but fun, because at that time there were only two people and the dream of art". After six years of dating, they officially became husband and wife with support from both families.
Life after marriage is not easy, because both are independent and do not rely on family support. Hoai Minh confided: Many people think artists are happy, but we have spent time taking on small roles, studying hard and trying every day. At times, Bang Chau felt like she was an "obstruction" that made her husband suffer more burden. However, it was Hoai Minh's perseverance that helped her change her thinking: "If you had chosen to go together, no matter how difficult it was, you would have to walk together".
From a psychological perspective, Dr. Nguyen Ngoc Quynh Dao commented that a sustainable marriage not only requires love but also understanding and companionship. "Sometimes one person has to back up to let the other move forward. But if one person goes forever and the other stays still, the gap will increase, she shared.
For Hoai Minh, happiness does not lie in the glory of the stage but in being able to accompany his wife and children on the artistic journey. "There are many opportunities in the profession, but to find a companion with the same will, there is no second time. I do not trade family happiness for any job, he said.
Meanwhile, Bang Chau was moved when talking about her greatest joy - the moment her husband received the award at the National Professional Cai Luong Festival and the ancient Golden hope bell. She was proud that her husband was loved by the audience, but also hoped that he would "less be complacent" so that they could both share work and life together. Dr. Quynh Dao commented: A gentle person is a good virtue, but if it is too much, it can make the other person feel pressured. Marriage therefore requires harmony and sharing".
The story of "The balance" by Hoai Minh - Bang Chau not only depicts the love between two young artists but is also a beautiful harmony of love, passion and perseverance. They have proven that when the heart is in the same rhythm, all hardships can turn into a happy sound.
