As of the end of September 2024, after more than a year of release, the lyric video A Round of Vietnam (composed by Dong Thien Duc) on Tung Duong's YouTube channel had more than 24 million views.
This song was also released on many platforms and performed by many singers in music shows and stages.
It can be said that singer Tung Duong is one of the most successful singers to perform this song.
Every song has a mission
Musician Dong Thien Duc told Tuoi Tre Online that he wrote the song Mot vong Viet Nam for the culinary and travel program Around Vietnam broadcast on VTV3 channel.
"After finishing writing, I didn't dare think that singer Tung Duong would sing this song. I boldly contacted him, but I didn't expect that the guy who often scares children when he sings would be so cute and approachable, and agreed to sing it" - Dong Thien Duc confided.

Singer Tung Duong said that he performed the song " One Round Vietnam" by fate.
The song is hearty, praising the heroic spirit of the Vietnamese people. The song is suitable for Tung Duong's vocal range.
"Singing " A round of Vietnam" is more enjoyable than singing "Who is loyal to love forever ". Because this song is about love for the homeland, a great love" - Tung Duong jokingly told Dong Thien Duc.
About a month ago, singer Tung Duong made a music video for the song “A Round of Vietnam” that incorporated beautiful Vietnamese landscapes across the country, making viewers feel more emotional. This music video quickly reached nearly 800,000 views.
"I never look at numbers to determine whether my songs are popular or not. For pure artists, numbers are almost meaningless.
I only care about what I have done and what the audience wants from me" - Dong Thien Duc confided.
The male musician confided that when composing, the first thing he thinks about is how to put soul into each word and note in the song; how to make the audience hear and understand.
"I don't expect a song to be a hit or not. To me, each song has its own mission, has soul, has vitality like a life. It doesn't matter about noble or humble character, but lies in humanistic values.
The audience's love for the song is the biggest award I have received" - Dong Thien Duc affirmed.
"I believe that songs about homeland and country have a longer lifespan than songs about love. The proof is that I am often asked by audiences to sing Con Co, Sac Mau... And I also choose to sing these songs in big programs.
"Singing One Round of Vietnam makes me feel more proud than singing a personal song because I am singing for my homeland and country" - Tung Duong added.

Refused to sell exclusive rights to the song One Round of Vietnam
When asked if the song " One Round Vietnam" is his favorite song and a success in his career, Dong Thien Duc said:
"It's true that I'm satisfied because I finally wrote a song for my homeland and country that many people love. But it's not success yet, not yet. Right now I don't allow myself to think that I've succeeded."
Dong Thien Duc shared more with Tuoi Tre Online : "Many singers and artists contacted me to ask for permission to sing Mot vong Viet Nam .
There are also many people who don't need permission but that's okay, they sing for their homeland, sing for their people to hear. I also write for my homeland, write for my people to hear, sing with the same aspiration.
There are also many units, schools, and organizations that contact me to publish non-profit products. Although I know that the word "non-profit" does not mean "worthless", I still happily nodded.
Talking about the exclusive purchase of the song, Dong Thien Duc said that many units and individuals intended to buy the exclusive rights to the song Mot vong Viet Nam but he refused.
He frankly said: "I refuse outright. The singer sang "A Round of Vietnam" with all his pride and love for his homeland. I don't want to damage that feeling."
A tour of Vietnam brings people closer together
"The song One Round Vietnam is a source of pride every time Hung sings it.
During a performance in Japan, Hung listened to the audience's confidences, many people were moved to tears.
Hung felt the joy of the audience, felt the homeland closer in the hearts of overseas Vietnamese when listening to this song.
The song "A Round of Vietnam" touches the emotions of all classes, becoming a way to express the Vietnamese soul in many cultural and artistic activities.
Sincere thanks to musician Dong Thien Duc for a very meaningful composition."
