Sharing about the "professional fire" passed down from his father, a colonel, People's Artist Ung Duy Thinh (former Director of the Military Music and Dance Theater ), Kien Ung said: "What I am today is 100% my own merit." of my father. Since childhood, when I followed my father to rehearsals, performances or plays, I often played behind the stage, in the wings.
I was able to observe and follow all the activities of the dancers, singers... see what they were doing, what their production plans were like. I've lived in that kind of environment since I was a kid, so all the energy and motivation I have comes from that."
Since childhood, Kien Ung wanted to grow up and do what his father did. However, later, he became interested in photography and after listening to his father's advice, he decided to study videography.
“Growing up I loved taking photos, I ignored the fact that I knew the piano and my father's direction for me. When taking the entrance exam to the theater and film school, I asked my dad, "Now I'm planning to enroll in the photography department," and my dad said, "I think you should study cinematography, because in the cinematography profession they teach taking photos, I will definitely be unemployed in the future, if no one hires me as a photographer, then I know how to film," Kien Ung recounted.
Having to temporarily stop at the program left Kien Ung with many regrets. He feels like he misses the time he spent living with talented people.
At the program, Kien Ung highly appreciated Bui Cong Nam. Although he has not had the opportunity to work directly with the male singer, Kien Ung has heard of Bui Cong Nam's products before and hopes to have the opportunity to cooperate with Bui Cong Nam on the show.
“Regarding Bui Cong Nam, I have not had the opportunity to work directly, for example joining an alliance or working on something together as a performing artist. I have listened to some of Nam's works online and I see that he is a very talented boy. When participating in the program, I also thought that if I had the opportunity to collaborate with Nam, the two brothers would definitely be able to do something" - Kien Ung confided.
The male director also gave many compliments to Kay Tran. “Kay is enthusiastic, willing to talk, willing to care. Every time Kay appears, Kay has a little change and that change makes me and some of my friends feel comfortable when talking to Kay as well as looking forward to working with Kay in the future. Next time we meet," Kien Ung said.
Kien Ung also shared that he is a straightforward person. If something is not right during work, he will always say it. “On the show, I spoke frankly a lot but I don't know if people ever felt sad about it. Because usually when I feel the need for something I will say it. I hope you won't feel offended by what I said" - Kien Ung confided.
