Hey Ha Giang!

The song “Ha Giang oi” was composed by Quach Beem in 2018, the first song in the non-profit music project of composing 63 songs about 63 provinces and cities by Quach Beem. The MV “Ha Giang oi” was made in Ha Giang with famous tourist destinations such as Ma Pi Leng Pass, Nho Que River, Lung Cu Flagpole, Dong Van Stone Plateau... This is one of the songs he composed about 63 provinces and cities. As soon as it was released, the song unexpectedly created a big boost for Ha Giang tourism.

Vietnam.vn would like to introduce to you the Video “Oh Ha Giang” by Doan Dong Duc (Quach Beem). This video was recorded by the author and his crew in Ha Giang and they had to work continuously for 15 days to complete the MV on schedule. This video was submitted by the author to the Photo and Video Contest “Happy Vietnam”, organized by the Ministry of Information and Communications.

After 3 years of writing “Oh Ha Giang”, Quach Beem has just returned to this place. He realized that Ha Giang is changing and developing day by day. The number of domestic and foreign tourists coming to Ha Giang is increasing. The places of Ha Giang that Quach Beem included in the song such as: Ma Pi Leng Pass, Nho Que River, Lung Cu Flagpole, Dong Van Stone Plateau... have become very famous destinations. This made Quach Beem decide to spend all his money to make a music video to introduce more widely the land and people of Ha Giang.

He shared: I was not born and raised in Ha Giang, but I love this northernmost land of the Fatherland through its majestic landscapes, honest and simple people, and unique culture. The song Ha Giang Oi is the first work in a series of 63 songs of the music project "I Love Vietnam" that I have been, am and will be implementing. The song was composed by me to promote and spread the image of my homeland, country, and Vietnamese people to the domestic and international markets. Responding to the action to improve the quality and effectiveness of foreign information work in the new situation.

“This time, the filming of the MV “Ha Giang oi” was renewed, investing in both music and images. The first time, I wanted to experience more reality, so I filmed simple, rustic footage to post on social networks and spread it to everyone. Unexpectedly, the song was widely received by the audience. That is why I decided to return to Ha Giang again to make a well-prepared, quality music film… to give to the audience and promote the image of Ha Giang” – Quach Beem said.
