Duc Phuc's life and career changed completely after cosmetic surgery. |
Since having plastic surgery and becoming more handsome, how has Duc Phuc's life changed?
The first change is that I feel that I am more accepted by the audience than before. In the past, my voice was the same, I often sang ballads and lyrical songs, but because I was not beautiful, no one paid attention to me. Currently, in addition to my voice, my appearance has also improved, the audience is curious about the name Duc Phuc, looking for my previous songs and gradually understanding my personality and looking to listen to my previous songs again.
During this time, I was also quite lucky to be invited to events and perform at large and small shows. The tight performance schedule helped me have a more stable life, enough money to cover all living expenses, help my family and send my younger brother to school. For me, this transformation was a profitable investment that I had never thought of. With what I have in front of me, I do not regret my decision.
So how many times has Duc Phuc's salary increased compared to the time before plastic surgery?
Of course, the salary I receive is higher than before. But I'm not so arrogant as to ask for too high a price. If it's too expensive, no one will dare to invite me to sing (laughs).
So what about love?
My life is still happy, normal and nothing has changed. Every day I am busy singing, after singing I go home to rest or meet friends and colleagues. In the past 21 years, I have never been in love and have never known what it feels like to date.
Phuc has never loved anyone because no one is pursuing him, or are there other reasons?
Before, I used to think that because I was ugly, no one would love me, but after the surgery, everything was still the same. So, whether I was ugly or beautiful, it didn't affect my single life. Instead of feeling sad and sorry for myself, I thought of myself as a special person.
Moreover, love is something that is very difficult to predict, maybe my fate has not come yet so I have never been moved by anyone. Well, let everything go naturally, I will open my heart to receive if my true love appears. But at the present time, the love that the audience has for me is the most important.

In the past, the male singer thought he was not handsome so no one liked him. |
If you have never been in love, how can you understand the emotions of the love songs that you have performed?
Honestly, there are many songs that I can’t even imagine the exact content and story of, because I have never been in love and had such love experiences. Entering the studio, I just picked up the paper and sang instinctively, I didn’t think of anyone, nor did I sing for my own story. Perhaps I am luckier than others to have an emotional voice and stand in the position of a storyteller to guide the audience’s emotions.
Since changing his appearance and becoming famous, audiences no longer see Duc Phuc as close to My Tam as before. Is it possible that their teacher-student relationship is no longer the same as before?
During the time of The Voice, Ms. Tam and I had many opportunities to bond and interact with each other. But at the present time, each of us has our own job, I live at my house, she lives at her house, how can we meet as often as before. Moreover, I also want to be independent, gradually mature over time instead of relying too much on her help.
Occasionally, Ms. Tam and I still contact and exchange with each other via phone, email, and text messages. Ms. Tam also gives me a lot of feedback on each product I launch. Everyone knows she is always busy, but she still makes time for me, and I really appreciate and am grateful for that.

Also the champion of The Voice, but compared to Huong Tram's direction after 2 years of coronation, many people think that Duc Phuc's progress is too slow. Do you feel sad about that?
The time when Huong Tram joined the competition was the first season of The Voice, so there was a huge explosion, the audience's interest in the program was also much greater. Meanwhile, the year I joined was season 3, so the popularity had cooled down a lot.
Not to mention, Ms. Tram has a very good voice and knows how to choose hit songs, so all of her songs are successful and well received by the audience. Up to this point, Huong Tram has had 5 years to assert herself in showbiz, while Duc Phuc has only had 2 years and had a turning point only after changing his appearance.
