Admitting to losing control due to alcohol consumption.
In his latest post, the songwriter of "The Child" admitted that on the night of the incident, he had consumed a lot of alcohol, leading to a loss of control over his behavior and speech. Minh Khang emphasized that under any circumstances, speaking disrespectfully to others is something that should never be done.
"I think I should speak up once so everyone understands the story. First of all, I apologize for my mistake. That night I drank a lot of alcohol and lost control of my words, leading to rude and inappropriate remarks towards the driver," musician Minh Khang publicly shared.
Controversy over privacy and drivers being blocked from apps.
Besides admitting his mistake, musician Minh Khang also expressed his views on privacy rights when the dashcam video, which contained clear images and sound, was widely disseminated. According to him, personal conflicts arising from the use of a service should be resolved according to the management company's procedures instead of being publicly posted, which affects the family.
The situation escalated further when the driver involved had his account permanently blocked by the app's management following complaints from the musician. Amidst the mixed reactions, Minh Khang hopes the story will end here and requests that the online community stop attacking the parties involved.
A costly lesson in manners.
Musician Minh Khang affirmed that this was a major lesson for him and pledged to limit alcohol consumption to avoid repeating similar behavior. Currently, he has set up comment limits on his personal page to reduce public attacks.
Musician Minh Khang (born in 1978) is the author of many famous hit songs such as "Cầu vồng khuyết" (The Incomplete Rainbow), "Đứa bé" (The Child), and "Lời nguyền" (The Curse). Prior to this incident, he always maintained the image of a calm and composed artist, and was especially loved after participating in a reality TV show with his daughter.
