The influence of historical and cultural artworks

After the footage recreating the tragic and emotional journey of 21 Cu Chi guerrillas, the film "Tunnels: Sun in the Dark" ends with the song "Sun in the Dark" with melodies filled with proud emotions.

Recently, the film crew released the MV for the soundtrack. "The Sun in the Dark" was composed by musician Hua Kim Tuyen and NTB, with the lyrics by director Bui Thac Chuyen, the film's director. The song is performed by two actors of the film, Meritorious Artist Cao Minh and Diem Hang Lamoon. Like the film, the MV is an epic about the people of "The Land of Steel", ready to sacrifice to protect their homeland, so that the country can be at peace. The opening is slow, leisurely melodies followed by a climax, fast and strong rhythm. Meritorious Artist Cao Minh's powerful voice and Diem Hang Lamoon's gentle, emotional voice leave an impression on listeners.

The movie "Tunnel: Sun in the Dark" was a huge success.

Up to now, the film "Tunnel: Sun in the Dark" has become a member of the "hundred billion club" of Vietnamese cinema after less than 10 days of release. This is a huge success for historical and revolutionary war films. In terms of dissemination, it is rare for a historical film to become a trend on social networking platforms, enthusiastically supported by young people. The film's soundtrack is used as music for TikTok videos about national pride. It is impressive to see comments about the film such as "After watching the film, I see how precious peace is!", "Thank you to the previous generation who sacrificed so that our children and grandchildren can have peace today!", "Peace is so beautiful!"...

Previously, the MV "Bac Bling" exploiting the cultural theme of Bac Ninh land created unexpected success, reaching 100 million views in a short time, trending on social networking platforms, and topping YouTube's global trends... With a modern, youthful, and attractive exploitation, the production team showed that indigenous cultural resources are abundant and potential.

Previously, many other works of art, typically the film "Dao, Pho and Piano", which exploited historical and cultural themes, also created a buzz.

These successes show that the entertainment trend of the audience has changed, in a positive direction, which is to honor the culture and history of the nation, and to arouse pride through works of art. The "view-baiting" style of making films and music no longer exists. Next, this success also shows that the approach and exploitation of indigenous cultural resources by artists today has also changed, becoming modern, youthful and suitable for the tastes of the audience. That success also comes from promoting and spreading artistic products effectively through many means, especially social networks.

We believe that there will be many more works of art with strong Vietnamese identity that will be loved by the public and reach the world , so that Vietnam's cultural industry can develop in the direction of integration, "advanced and imbued with national identity".
