It sounds "condescending", but everyone is touched.
Hong Nhung is happy to be a wedding singer
The story is that among the more than 1,000 audience members, mainly young and middle-aged people who came to listen to Hong Nhung and Quang Dung sing at the live concert Tinh nho, there was a couple over 80 years old.

On Women's Day, the elderly couple dressed up and traveled a long distance to hear their two favorite singers sing live.
At my age, this is a rare special occasion.
It's not easy for old people who are very frugal to spend nearly ten million dong on a pair of tickets to a live concert.
Even if their children buy them gifts, they won't easily agree.
But this is their special day.
Singer Hong Nhung walked down to the couple's row and gave them a gift of a CD of her singing songs about Hanoi.
When asked, Hong Nhung and the audience learned that this was the 55th wedding anniversary of the couple who had been together until old age.
After hearing the touching story, Hong Nhung immediately declared that she would be a wedding singer.
This concert is for all the audience present and also to celebrate the 55th wedding anniversary of the beloved couple.
She "asked" the audience to imagine they were attending a special wedding.
It's very special because now couples only need to pass the "5.5 year" milestone to celebrate their anniversary, as Hong Nhung humorously and calmly said, making thousands of viewers laugh in agreement.
So she is very happy to be a wedding singer to celebrate the happiness of "aunt and uncle".
Hong Nhung decided to sing them a song that has been associated with many generations of Hanoians - Remembering Hanoi's Autumn by musician Trinh Cong Son. She sang it with herself in a video from more than 20 years ago.

Therefore, the audience had the opportunity to "verify" the information that this famous humorous female singer just revealed: Ms. Bong then and now still maintains the same weight.
The singer's weight and figure have not changed, but the audience also had the opportunity to compare her voice after decades, it seems to be stronger, longer and more powerful.
Musicians with high ticket prices are not only Trinh Cong Son and Phu Quang.
During the music night, as usual, Ms. Bong continuously showed off her charming, sometimes "absolutely" humorous talent as a Hanoi girl born into an intellectual family.

Quang Dung once said that what impressed him most about Hong Nhung was her intelligence, understanding, and intellectualism.
Meanwhile, he is gentle, soft-spoken and clearly in front of Hong Nhung, he is revealed to be a singer who is not good at speaking and communicating on stage.
But the audience who loves Quang Dung need nothing more than him standing there, handsome, elegant and singing with a warm, emotional voice that does not fade over the years.
He has sung popular songs through his voice for over 20 years: Because it's you (Dieu Huong), Afternoon alone through the street (Trinh Cong Son), Autumn is really autumn (Phu Quang),
The Most Beautiful Summer (Duc Huy), Nocturne (Nguyen Trung Cang), As if It Hasn't Begun (Duc Tri), Summer Snowfall (Tran Le Quynh), Frozen Dream (Le Thanh Trung)...
He also sang duets with Hong Nhung: Love and Memory (Trinh Cong Son), Lonely Night (Ngoc Trong), Because We Need Each Other (Duc Tri), You and I and Dewdrops on the Eyelids (Thanh Tung), Awakening Spring (Duong Thu), You Come Back Pure (Quoc Bao).

Hong Nhung is similar, showing off most of her hits in decades of singing: Ngay khong mua, Do tinh (Quoc Trung), Van hat loi tinh yeu (Duong Thu), Con tuoi nao cho em (Trinh Cong Son) with Quyen Thien Dac, Ve lai pho xua (Phu Quang), Mot minh (Thanh Tung), Neu anh di (Khac Hung), and Ve dep chuyen don - Simple beauty composed by herself.
The song list not only satisfied the audience who have loved and followed the two artists over the past few decades.
It is also meaningful for music in general, when it "accidentally" affirms that the Vietnamese music heritage that audiences love and are willing to spend money on tickets includes not only a few expensive names such as Trinh Cong Son, Phu Quang, Vu Thanh An, Ngo Thuy Mien...
Luckily, we also have other colors that the audience also loves: Duong Thu, Thanh Tung, Quoc Bao, Duc Tri, Duc Huy...
