People's Artist Kim Cuong was hospitalized, and her performance of "Durian Leaves" in Hanoi was interrupted.

(NLDO) - This is the second time she has been rushed to the Ho Chi Minh City Heart Institute, after a spasm that caused difficulty breathing that specialists are monitoring and treating.

NSND Kim Cương cấp cứu, dang dở việc diễn — People's Artist Kim Cuong is being treated at the Ho Chi Minh City Heart Institute.

On the afternoon of October 29, People's Artist Kim Cuong was taken to the Ho Chi Minh City Heart Institute by her family for emergency treatment. She had difficulty breathing and almost fainted due to an unstable heart rate. Ms. Bay - a niece who has been helping People's Artist Kim Cuong in all her daily activities - was worried: "She has passed the critical stage, but the doctors have instructed her to keep calm, not to fall or overexert herself."

On the morning of October 30, a reporter from Nguoi Lao Dong Newspaper visited People's Artist Kim Cuong. She said her health was better than yesterday. "I broke my promise to People's Artist Trinh Thuy Mui - President of the Vietnam Stage Artists Association that I would organize a performance of the play "Durian Leaves" in Hanoi, with the aim of raising funds to help Northern stage artists who are facing difficulties in life and are sick. However, now I have to be treated for heart disease, so I feel very guilty" - People's Artist Kim Cuong shared.

She told the reporter of Nguoi Lao Dong Newspaper, asking to convey to the Vietnam Stage Artists Association and the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front that she could not perform the program "Durian Leaves" at this time. "When I am really well, I will reconnect with People's Artist Trinh Thuy Mui and Ms. To Bich Chau - Vice President of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front to conduct a meaningful performance, to give gifts to artists in difficulty in the North" - People's Artist Kim Cuong expressed.

After 10 years of organizing the program "Artists with Soul" to give Tet gifts to poor artists in Ho Chi Minh City with difficult circumstances and to award scholarships to children of poor artists who love to study with the scholarship fund named after her mother - the late People's Artist Bay Nam.

People's Artist Kim Cuong wanted to give gifts to artists in difficulty in the North. Before the performance of "Durian Leaves" in Hanoi with this good purpose could be performed, she had to be hospitalized.

Not long ago, People's Artist Kim Cuong attended the program "Meet the Press" to introduce the activities to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Mai Vang Award and the 30th Mai Vang Award Ceremony (October 16). She is the first artist to be honored as "Lifetime Artist for the Community" by the Lao Dong Newspaper at the 2021 Mai Vang Award Ceremony.
