On the afternoon of September 23, singer Khanh Phuong apologized for the MV of the Ngu Ho Tuong music group including him and Ung Hoang Phuc, Lam Chan Huy, Duong Ngoc Thai, Luu Hung.
The MV "Anh em truoc sau nhu" is said to contain images with the domain name and logo of a betting website.
In the 58th second, Khanh Phuong held a cup and printed the logo of the betting website. In addition, images of this website also appear on the bar's staff shirt and phone screen.
Khanh Phuong explained: "Khanh Phuong and the group received an invitation to cooperate with a media and entertainment company. They want to appear the logo in a few small scenes in the MV "Anh em truoc kia sau don".
After agreeing, Khanh Phuong assigned the technical crew to collect a few scenes with logos. My group and I did not know anything about any involvement in gambling websites because we believed in the legality of the company's business registration license."
Khanh Phuong affirmed that he never thought about promoting websites related to gambling and said that he was actively coordinating with authorities to explain.
However, Khanh Phuong's apology and explanation did not receive support. Many audiences reacted strongly, asking the authorities to intervene.
On September 22, Khanh Phuong, Ung Hoang Phuc, Duong Ngoc Thai, Lam Chan Huy and Luu Hung received a summons to the police for posting the MV "Brother before, sister after sister" on social media platforms.
