Viet Quang was born in 1977, an artist associated with the 7X and 8X generations with many hits:Love, Moon Watching, Sad Coffee, Romantic Love... He has a high tenor voice, dynamic and youthful style.
At the end of 2008, Viet Quang completely disappeared from the music scene. "At that time, I was confident about my health, so when I went on tour abroad, I never protected my larynx. My family asked me to go to the doctor, but I was shy and afraid that people would know that I sang poorly, so I didn't go," Viet Quang once said. Not getting timely treatment led to losing his voice, so he switched to real estate business and achieved success. However, the stock market crash that followed greatly affected his business activities.
His voice was gone and his business failed, causing Viet Quang to think about committing suicide. When his family found out, his mother stopped him and stayed by his side to take care of him. After the incident, Viet Quang decided to settle down in the US. In recent years, his voice was restored, and Viet Quang returned to Vietnam to pursue his musical career. When he was still healthy, the male singer often sang at events and filmed talk shows to meet audiences again and get acquainted with new tastes.
