Recently, "older brother" Hung Huynh officially debuted with his first product, the MV "Chang the mung mat".
This song has a pretty catchy phase with an easy-to-listen melody that is suitable for Hung Huynh to show off his long-standing dancing ability. However, besides his not-so-outstanding singing voice, many viewers also commented that Hung Huynh's MV "Chang the gong mat" has many similarities with BTS member Jungkook's MV "Standing Next to You".
The MV "Standing Next to You" also focuses on the male character, focuses on choreography and only has a few scenes interacting with the female lead character. Even some scenes in the MV "Chang the gong mat" are staged quite similarly to "Standing Next to You".
Across social media, many viewers expressed disappointment with Hung Huynh's "brother"'s debut MV and said they expected more from this official debut.
"Why does it sound and look similar to BTS's Jungkook's "Standing Next to You"? Huynh Hung's "Chang the gan mat" is like the Vietnamese version of "Standing Next to You" but the filming isn't as nice", "I know this person wants to follow the Korean style but why is it 80% similar to the MV and it's by a very famous singer"... are comments about Hung Huynh's MV "Chang the gan mat".
There are also some audiences who speak up to defend Hung Huynh because his strength is choreography, a MV that focuses on choreography would hardly have a different way of expressing. On the other hand, because it is a debut product, it is inevitable that there will be shortcomings.
Currently, Hung Huynh's MV is still a hot topic of discussion among audiences on social networks. Previously, at the press conference to launch the MV, singer Hoa Minzy - a "senior" who has a close relationship with Hung Huynh also spoke up, hoping that the audience can accept it so that the male singer can try harder in the future.
Although he did not make it to the finals, Hung Huynh is one of the most popular names after "Anh trai say hi". The male artist used to be a trainee at a Korean entertainment company.
In 2023, he participated in the show "Asia Super Young" produced by Youku and TVB, ranking 17th out of 60 contestants. The male artist also revealed that he once refused the opportunity to debut in a Chinese boy band because he wanted to return to Vietnam to start a career. Participating in "Anh trai say hi", Hung Huynh was also quite surprised because he was loved and welcomed by everyone.
