Exactly 110 years ago, responding to the call of patriot Phan Boi Chau, more than 200 patriotic and outstanding young people went to Japan with the aim of liberating the nation, inspiring the nation, and reforming the country.

Although the Dong Du Movement only existed for a short time, it contributed to arousing the patriotism and determination to gain independence of the Vietnamese people, especially the young generation at that time. The movement also contributed to changing the history of Vietnam in many aspects such as culture, education, and diplomacy. Currently, the Vietnam - Japan relationship is developing well in many fields. Japan is a strategic partner of Vietnam.

The performances are imbued with the cultural identities of Vietnam and Japan.

Speaking at the ceremony, Comrade Dinh Thi Le Thanh - Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee affirmed that this is a meaningful activity to educate the younger generation about the patriotic tradition of their ancestors, looking towards the future with the spirit of taking the past as a fulcrum; consolidating and strengthening the Vietnam - Japan relationship to become more sustainable, developing, reaching new heights.
