Notably, the song Little Bird with lyrics translated from Japanese to English by Japanese Empress Michiko was performed by artist Toshiki Usui and Ambassador Hoang Thi Minh Ha. Here, the performance of Ao Dai Ngan An combined with Kimono made an impression in the miniature scene of the Vietnam-Japan wedding. The umbrella dance, Yosakoi dance and the chorus Vietnam in me performed by Ambassador Hoang Thi Minh Ha and students were like a breath of youth, opening up a bright future for cooperation between the two countries. Ms. Yasuyo Satou - representative of an international exchange organization from Tokyo, was moved to say: 'This is the first time I have attended such a wonderful cultural exchange event. Beautiful, unique and meaningful".
