Sharing with reporters, Hong Phuong frankly talked about the difficult period recently when she became the focus of controversy and suffered attacks from a part of the audience. The female singer said that she could not avoid feeling sad and pressured, but did not give up because of that. "I always try to live and work according to the good things that Vu Linh once taught and left behind," Hong Phuong said.
Hong Phuong admitted that there were times when she felt regretful when she could not fully sublimate with art. The fluctuations in her personal life and public opinion made her career path slower and heavier. However, the female singer said that the current difficulties are gradually subsided, giving her time to look back, adjust her emotions and strengthen her spirit.
For Hong Phuong, the music night "On doi on nguoi" on January 10th is not only a performance, but also an opportunity for her to express her gratitude to the audience, colleagues and those who have silently supported her. “Sometimes I feel I am not strong enough, but then I understand that if I give up, I will disappoint those who always trust and wait,” the female singer shared.
Besides the online music night, Hong Phuong also revealed that she is preparing for her return with live shows in October. The female singer said that this return is of special significance, because she wants to move forward with a calmer, more mature mindset, not chasing after noise but focusing on professional quality and perseverance in the profession.
In her adulthood and after many upheavals, Hong Phuong sees her artistic journey not only as a story of stage lights, but also as a process of practicing bravery and maintaining faith. For her, continuing to stand on stage, singing with sincerity and responsibility to the audience is the most practical way to express gratitude for "gratitude to life, gratitude to others" as the spirit of the upcoming music night.
According to the team's sharing, "Gratitude to Life and People" is a family and traditional night, gathering artists from three stage generations including artist Hong Nhung, artist Tieu Linh, artist Kim Thoa, artist Linh Vu and baby Ruby.
