The memoir launch was attended by a series of talented people from the show "Brother overcoming thousands of obstacles" such as Tien Luat, Phan Dinh Tung, Jun Pham, Cuong Seven, ST Son Thach...
Hong Son sent his thanks to the talented people who came to celebrate with him. He was touched by the days he spent with the artists participating in the program "Anh trai vu ngan cong gai". He also learned many meaningful lessons from the talented people.
In a conversation with reporters, when asked if he regretted being eliminated from the program, Hong Son said he did not regret it because stopping on the program was mostly due to his own wishes. According to famous player Hong Son, his firepower was quite good, if considered fairly, he would not have had to leave so early.
However, he is still happy and hopes that the remaining artists will continue to reap more success in the future.
In addition, when talking about his passion for singing and accepting shows, he said he only participated in a few programs and was not too dedicated. He also jokingly said that if he performed, he would want to go with the talented Tien Luat.
Hong Son's memoir is fully titled "Hong Son "Princess": A soccer freak in a soldier's uniform".
He said he had been working on this memoir for over 7 years. He originally planned to release it in 2020, on his 50th birthday, but had to postpone it due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In order not to miss any interesting details in his career, he had to sit down with journalists to reminisce, possibly up to 200 sessions to complete this memoir.
In his memoir, former football star Hong Son shares about the ups and downs of his career, from when he was a boy until adulthood and retirement.
Notably, the story of going to Germany for knee ligament surgery in 1996 was emotionally told by him and Mr. Vu Cong Lap, a veteran sports journalist.
