Singer Bang Kieu works hard on shows in Vietnam because in the US he only does... gardening and home repairs!

In recent years, many overseas artists have flocked back to the country to work in the arts (singing, organizing Liveshows, being judges, opening stages or entertainment companies) such as: Thu Phuong, Quang Le, Toc Tien, Duong Trieu Vu, Van Son, Bang Kieu, Chi Tai, Bao Chung, Che Linh, Khanh Ly, Huong Lan, the couple Quang Minh - Hong Dao... Among them areBang KieuEspecially during the epidemicCOVID-19, Bang Kieu is more active in performing in Vietnam.

Bang Kieu and Thu Phuong are overseas singers who frequently return to Vietnam to perform.

Previously, when he was in the US, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, many shows were canceled. Bang Kieu had no shows and had to stay at home for a long time. Therefore, he had to do all kinds of farming and farming work.

Accordingly, Bang Kieu shared that he is doing gardening and making wooden furniture to renovate his house. In contrast to his elegant image on stage, the male singer dresses simply and does manual work like a real worker. Bang Kieu appears to be extremely proficient and resourceful. Due to the severe impact of the epidemic, the lives of many artists are facing difficulties. Including Bang Kieu, he finally decided to return to Vietnam to perform.

Talking about the feeling of being able to perform on stage, Bang Kieu confided:"I'm really under a lot of pressure. Because in 30 years of singing, this is the first time I've stopped singing for so long. For the first time, I don't know what it feels like to be on stage for 6 months, and if I do have any activities, they're only online and in the studio. For me, it makes me fall into a state of depression. Even though my house has a garden and I also work to not "lock myself up" at home, people are used to performing and traveling, but suddenly 6-7 months without being able to go anywhere. That's a difficult thing. Now that the general situation is like this, I also know how to balance.".

Bang Kieu's time in the US was limited due to the Covid-19 pandemic. He used the time to garden and fix the house.

Following his personal page, the audience saw that when he returned to Vietnam, Bang Kieu received the love of music listeners. He shared: "God loves him for working, not for not making money, so I have to accept it. I was also affected by Covid but luckily I managed things well. When I returned to Vietnam, my work was relatively favorable, producers and audiences were very supportive." Bang Kieu's shows were dense and met his life as well as his savings to raise his children.

It is known that after breaking up with his ex-wife, Bang Kieu still contributed to raising his 3 sons. In addition to regularly visiting and attending important events of his children. Not only that, he also provided about 100,000 USD (more than 2 billion VND) for his ex-wife and 3 sons.

Living in America and raising children in the American style is also a big pressure for Bang Kieu. During the pandemic, he could not sing, so Bang Kieu was extremely tired. He said:"I was under pressure because I didn't know how long the epidemic would last. If I had known that it would last for 3 months, 6 months or 9 months, I wouldn't have been under such pressure because I knew that at that time I would be able to go to work. But the problem is that I don't know when this epidemic will last. Luckily, I have taken precautions and made plans so that I can at least cover my expenses.".

He also admitted that in America, he is not as rich as people speculate. "I'm not as rich as people think. I only bought a house because I need to live in it. Moreover, I only work in art, not in business, so I'm not as rich as other people.", Bang Kieu shared.

Not only buying a house for himself, Bang Kieu tries harder to take on shows because he wants to provide his children with the necessary provisions for life. He wants to buy a house for his three sons so that they will not be surprised when they enter life.
