SingingTake his handHe wrote: "Many people probably wonder why, when he's singing so well and making money so easily, he's temporarily stopped, and occasionally sings for free as a contribution?"
Everyone wants money and a job, but the nature of singing means you're often gone for 3-4 days at a time, and sometimes for a whole week if you have many shows.
So my wife and I agreed that we would dedicate as much time as possible to our children during their early years, because money can't buy their childhood memories of their parents. My greatest happiness now is taking care of my children and spending as much time as possible with my family. Family, the best thing ever."

Accordingly, in order to spend more time with his children and family, and to be a devoted father and husband, the singer has temporarily stopped singing. Furthermore, his free performances are also a way of contributing to and serving the needs of his audience, and expressing his love and passion for music.
Tuan Hung's post quickly attracted nearly 30,000 likes, thousands of comments, and hundreds of shares. Most friends and fans supported the singer's viewpoint.
"What a wonderful father you are! Not everyone at the peak of their career dares to sacrifice so much to take care of their family like you do, but family is the core of life," "A wonderful man," "A true man, I admire you," "You're absolutely right, how much money is enough? Family memories and happiness can't be bought"... these are some of the comments netizens left under the post.
Previously, in July 2020, Tuan Hung announced his retirement after many years of singing to take care of his family, which saddened many fans.
He once confided: "Who knows, maybe in a few years, when Hung's child is doing better, if I'm lucky enough to return to the stage, that would be a good thing. But everyone, one day, has to accept the harsh truth that either they have to say goodbye to their profession, or the audience turns their backs on them. Hung chooses to never want people to turn their backs on him. It's better to make a firm decision than to stop here, to preserve the image and the love that everyone has for Hung. That's the truth."
Although he no longer performs regularly, Tuan Hung still receives the attention and affection of his fans.
