Dam Vinh Hung reveals mysterious lover after broken relationships
Dam Vinh Hung admits that he has become much "gentler" and quieter. This stems from changes in his life as well as finding a new love.
I am happily in love!
- Showbiz was paralyzed during the recent Covid-19 pandemic. How was Dam Vinh Hung - a singer with many continuous musical activities - damaged?
Before that, I announced that I would stop all activities to focus on the live show that was scheduled to be held in June. However, Covid appeared and completely changed my plans. The biggest impact on me up to this point is not being able to do the live show. Otherwise, everything was within the plan so I did not suffer much loss.
Some artists have to create online singing rooms to sell tickets and earn money during the pandemic. I don't think I'm in such a crisis that I have to do that. Because that's not my direction. I just livestream to interact with the audience, sing happily to relieve my nostalgia for the profession.

Dam Vinh Hung recreated the scene of Da Lat in the album release "The Unfinished Flower Story". |
- The album "The Unfinished Flower Story" was carefully invested in terms of image and music, as is obvious with Dam Vinh Hung's products. What do you like most about this project?
In this project, I chose Ly Nha Ky as the female lead because I felt she was suitable for the role. Ly Nha Ky has all the acting skills, is suitable for her age, can transform into a 25 year old girl or a 45 year old woman with classic beauty. Moreover, I heard that Ly Nha Ky had just announced her return to the entertainment industry, so inviting her was even more reasonable.
In fact, Da Lat has appeared in many films and music videos of artists. This time I still filmed in this foggy city because it is poetic, beautiful from the treetops, roads, alleys,... suitable for each scene that the crew wanted to aim for.
However, I tried to choose filming locations with beautiful, unique, and little-known landscapes to include in the MV. In fact, many places are not even accessible to strangers. All of this was possible thanks to my personal connections.
- Dam Vinh Hung sings many genres of music but this time he chose to return to Bolero. Is this still the field that helps him easily make money and attract audiences?
That is each person’s thoughts and opinions and I respect them. However, I think the music products in my career over the past 30 years are enough to say it all. I don’t need to beat my chest and say: “Dam Vinh Hung can sing in many different styles”. The whole country knows that, I don’t need to try to prove it.
It is undeniable that people who are suffering often turn to Bolero to soothe their pain. Meanwhile, the songs I chose coincidentally have themes of breakup, separation, and even grief. Therefore, I am even more confident that the project will sow unforgettable emotions in the hearts of listeners.
This album is also a shot to open the door for my next projects from now until the end of 2020. On the other hand, this is also a project that shows Dam Vinh Hung's devotion to bolero music.

- Recently, you have posted many status lines implying about a mysterious lover of yours. This makes the public think in two directions: Is Dam Vinh Hung in love and is Mr. Dam using the love story to attract attention for his album?
First of all, I would like to clarify that I am not the type of person who would be so despicable as to use personal and family matters to promote a product. Please understand that Dam Vinh Hung is not an incompetent person or a new figure in showbiz for 1-2 days to do such things.
It's strange! Any incident involving Dam Vinh Hung, from my fall requiring 6 stitches on my leg, to losing a billion-dollar diamond ring... is always rumored to be self-PR. Honestly, Dam Vinh Hung is famous enough!
- Are you implicitly admitting that you are in some kind of relationship?
I received those lines for the person I love. This person can occupy everything, from time, love to the current me. It is hard to predict anything about love, but I believe this is a relationship strong enough to stick with me for the rest of my life. Actually, we have known each other for more than a year. It is not convenient for me to say much about my secret person, but we are truly enjoying the happiness of love.
- What are you like when you love?
In love, I am like a fire that is always burning. I can sacrifice, even willing to be a slave to give the best things to the person I love. But I am not the jealous type. Because I believe that if the person I love is with someone else, it means that their heart for you is no longer the same as before. Therefore, I will directly ask them clearly about their choice. In me, there is no crying, doing things that hurt myself or causing pain to each other. Maybe because of this personality, I have broken up so many relationships in silence.

The singer of "Say tinh" revealed that she is in love but cannot reveal much about her "lover" at the moment. |
- Many audiences will surely want to know about Dam Vinh Hung's lover, do you plan to make it public?
I will not share about this relationship for now. I just want my family members to know. This life is strange, the more you know, the more complicated the story becomes. Rumors and gossip will definitely affect the feelings of both of us. However, when I feel everything is really stable and suitable, I will not hesitate to make it public to the audience.
- Dam Vinh Hung changes a lot when in love. He is much gentler, perhaps he wants to choose a "peaceful sky" for himself?
No one has teased me lately (laugh). I'm telling you so you can understand my personality. The times I've been upset or impulsive were because of conflicts that made me feel disrespected. I'm not crazy enough to make up stories or run over with a torch to burn down someone else's house. In short, no one has touched me, so why bother causing trouble with them?...
Gone are the days of getting angry and ruffling feathers when hearing judgmental words.

- Compared to a year ago, Dam Vinh Hung's image is clearly less scandalous and noisy...
I think I have passed the stage of gossip, the challenges that the profession has given me are no longer there. I don’t know what will happen in the future, but for now I feel quite at peace. Moreover, I want to give the best image of myself to my lover. I have passed the time of getting angry and ruffled feathers when hearing judgments about me like this or that. I have ignored those things, no longer care much.
If you pay close attention, the black and white photo I posted on Facebook 15 years ago, my nose was a hook nose. Looking back now, I am very surprised at myself. For me, the nose has an important feng shui on the face so I did not fix or touch it. I had two accidents so I only did some anti-wrinkle technology, mole removal but absolutely no surgery. I believe in the saying "the mind creates the appearance", so the nose changed shape by itself, I think it was because I gradually became less controversial and noisy. When I keep my mind calm, my appearance will naturally improve.
- What is the difference between the fierce and fierce Dam Vinh Hung in the past and the Dam Vinh Hung now?
I see myself as a different person, from personality to career thinking. I have experienced all the successes, glory or failure, gossip in life and work. Over time, my perspective on everything around me has also become more multi-dimensional and profound.
I accept all changes - change here means the change of position in showbiz. In the past, I appeared and made waves for a long time. Nowadays, the younger, more talented generation is the same. They can do things that I and the previous generation could not do. However, I am also proud because before that, I also did things that they could not do.
I always observe my juniors with a learning mindset, without competition or jealousy. Because I know that does not help my life. I admire talented and stylish young people, always following and supporting Son Tung M-TP, Hoai Lam, Bich Phuong, Hien Ho, Bao Anh... I can even listen to Son Tung sing passionately for hours.
I am not jealous or envious, but I try to understand and explain why they attract such a large crowd. Living and working with that mindset helps me stay calm and not let jealousy and gossip affect me.
- But the title “king of Vietnamese music” that the audience has given to Dam Vinh Hung is only one. Honestly, do you worry and put pressure on yourself to maintain your position?
The above title is how people affectionately call Dam Vinh Hung. Up to now, I have never boasted or polished my name with this beautiful title. Of course, I have to have my own way to maintain my value. I am not always a hero, winning on all fronts. I also have to know how to hide my fears to keep moving forward.
One thing I am extremely proud of is that when Dam Vinh Hung's products are released, they are always considered by everyone to be well-made. This word has great meaning to an artist because they have worked tirelessly behind the scenes.
I can reduce shopping, the money in the bank can be a little negative to invest in the product. I want everything to be really high quality and worthy of Dam Vinh Hung's reputation. And of course, the audience will also take note of those things. They give me enough answers to make me feel secure and proud. Up to this moment, I am still lucky to be sitting here, not pushed down, that is the clearest answer.
- Besides singing, Dam Vinh Hung is famous in showbiz for his successful business. How does this side job support your life?
I am from the Central region, so I tend to worry a lot. Over the years, I have always observed how my colleagues live when they are old and retired. I do not want to have to rely on or depend on anyone when I am no longer active.
Life is unpredictable, we never know what will happen to us. If one day I encounter an accident and cannot work, this job will help me a bit. Therefore, while I still have fame and appeal, I take the opportunity to build a stable foundation for myself. I want to take care of my family and maintain the aura that I have built over the years.
