At the beginning of the conversation, the couple quickly attracted attention when sharing about their 15-month-old child. According to Mr. Tuan - Ms. My Anh, the baby recognized letters early, even was invited to the stage and confidently taught letters as requested by the MC. Mr. Tuan admitted that he was surprised because the family "does not teach much", and the child especially likes letters: whenever he sees letters, he reads and learns on his own, making parents only have the task of observing and encouraging.
Regarding the predestined encounter, Mr. Tuan said that the two families were acquainted and had cooperation from his parents, so they met in 2018. Ms. My Anh said that before meeting directly, she "looked at Facebook and found it to be in her taste", but still kept a distance because she was shy. It was not until Mr. Tuan texted to wish her a happy new year and relatives advised "he is gallant and kind", that she agreed to go out.
The first date was not a luxury restaurant, but a walk around Hanoi Lake and then a ice cream stop. The detail that Mr. Tuan remembers most is not the confession, but Ms. My Anh's habit: after eating, she picks up the trash herself and throws it in the right place. "You are even more gallant than me," Mr. Tuan commented, considering it a plus point of a life partner who thinks about the environment and order.
Having been in love for about 3 years, Mr. Tuan - Ms. My Anh got married in 2022. The biggest challenge for them came from the COVID-19 period. When Mr. Tuan went on a business trip to Thai Nguyen, Ms. My Anh packed her suitcase to visit and was suddenly stuck for 3 months due to spacing. According to Mr. Tuan, that was a time when "bad habits and vices were revealed", but thanks to that, the two understood each other more deeply. They chose to sit down and say directly: if there is anything wrong, accept it and correct it, to see if they can go together for a long time or not.
Notably, Mr. Tuan revealed that he once had an "Excel chart to choose a wife" - a list of criteria he came up with himself. From face, figure to personality, everything was scored, and age was "compulsory". That is, if he was born in 1993, his wife must be 1996. Coincidentally, Ms. My Anh was born in 1996, he chose it.
He also recounted that from middle school he drew ideal models, and when he met Ms. My Anh, he was "like stepping out of a painting", making him believe that it was "the right person".
When talking about bad habits, Ms. My Anh "revealed" directly: Mr. Tuan refuses to wash dishes, even "hates the dish", can cook but avoids washing. In return, Mr. Tuan takes on the task of dumping garbage because Ms. My Anh is afraid of cockroaches. To avoid arguing, the couple decided to solve the problem in a practical way: buying a dishwasher. Another point that makes Ms. My Anh want her husband to change is the habit of staying up late due to the specific nature of the architecting profession, which makes him tired during the day and has little time to play with his children.
In the opposite direction, Mr. Tuan made the studio burst out laughing when he said: "If you see your wife's bad habits, you will love those bad habits". He also shared that when Ms. My Anh gave birth, he actively stayed at home to support because he had learned about postpartum psychological changes, considering companionship as important for the family to overcome a sensitive period.
