The photo series of Son Tung M-TP sitting on a cyclo going "around West Lake" received more than 650 thousand interactions.
Not only inspiring many young people to experience this service, Son Tung's photo series also made the cyclo driver who drove him sought after like never before.
This man doesn't even dare to answer the phone and limits his trips to West Lake for fear of crowds.
In recent days, young people have also shared photos of themselves riding cyclos to "catch the trend" with their idols. Many people find it strange because tourists often ride cyclos to see Hoan Kiem Lake and the Old Quarter, and rarely go to West Lake like Son Tung.
Nearly a month ago, Son Tung M-TP also accidentally created a "trend" after a photo shoot of him drinking iced tea on the sidewalk.
The male singer stopped by a tea shop on Ba Trieu Street (Hanoi) and took a photo shoot. The post attracted more than 720 thousand interactions.
Right after Son Tung’s photo series, the number of searches for the keyword “iced tea” suddenly increased on Google. After a few hours, the Google Trend system recorded that the level of user interest related to this keyword reached 97%.
A day later, the search rate for this keyword was still above 80%. On social networks, audiences were bustling to combine photos of themselves sitting next to Son Tung.
Just a few hours after the male singer posted the photo, the tea shop was packed with customers. The owner even had to add more chairs so that customers could sit on the sidewalk. Young people lined up to take photos and have a "cheap moment" with their idol.
By the afternoon of the same day, the authorities had to close this tea shop, disperse the crowd, and prevent gatherings that could cause disorder.
Previously, Son Tung was also the initiator of many trends such as the two-pants fashion, fur hats or... T-shirts bought at Da Lat market.
After more than 10 years of activity, Son Tung has maintained his popularity and interactions on social networking platforms are always outstanding.
This year, Son Tung M-TP "dominated" the digital music charts with the hit "Dung Lam Trai Tim Anh Dau". After only two hours of release, the MV surpassed 1.13 million views and climbed to the top 1 Trending Music YouTube - a speed rarely seen in Vietnamese showbiz.
"Don't Make My Heart Hurt" is the only Vietnamese music video of the year to surpass 100 million views, holding the #1 Trending position for nearly a month.
In 2024, Spotify Wrapped also announced the list of most listened songs in Vietnam, in which Son Tung M-TP had 2 songs: "Dung lam trai tim anh dau" at the top of the list, and "Chung ta cua tuong lai" at number 7.
