Guitarist Thanh Dien.

Artist Thanh Dien's real name is Le Thanh Dien, born in 1967 in Can Tho. Although he was born blind, Thanh Dien compensated with his excellent musical ability.

Practicing his ability to play the guitar is a way for him to overcome his inferiority complex and bring joy to those around him.

After many years of groping in the dark to get familiar with musical notes, each chord, feeling the music, tuning the strings, and imagining how to play a piece of music, he became proficient at playing many different musical instruments.

The male artist first became known to the public 2 years ago, when a video appeared on Youtube of him playing the song "Vet thu tren luu ngua hoang" (The scar on the wild horse's back) for Chu Hoang Tuan to sing. After that, many of his other videos also attracted millions of views.

In 2021, he was featured on the Life Show - a show for anonymous artists with musical talent.

In an interview with VTC News in 2022, the male artist once confided: "It is true that the sound of the guitar can bring Thanh Dien out of the darkness, but only when Thanh Dien plays and someone sings can he escape. At that time, I concentrate, and when someone sings, I feel that my guitar supports someone else's song, that I am useful. Only then can Thanh Dien be a little happy, but playing alone is the same."
