Phan Manh Quynh: 'Returning to the countryside when lacking inspiration is secondary, lacking money is primary'
Musician-singer Phan Manh Quynh for the first time shared his thoughts and feelings as an artist attached to his hometown and passionate about music at the Weekend Appointment program.
Right from the first minutes of conversation, the Weekend Appointment program used "doi nac che" (a bowl of tea) to bring guests back to stories of the countryside, of unforgettable childhood memories.
Phan Manh Quynh shared for the first time about his family's peanut candy workshop - "Manh Quynh Sesame Peanut Candy" named after his eldest son by his parents. These candy packages have accompanied the male singer since he was 6 years old, raising Phan Manh Quynh's 5 siblings and helping him pursue his artistic dream.

The Nghe An countryside where Phan Manh Quynh was born and raised is the inspiration for the program's producers to exploit interesting stories about the guests: the choir at the church, the cassette player stored in the warehouse, the old scene in the old place, the feeling of happiness every time they set foot in the village...
The male musician started composing early when he was in 9th grade, wanting to pursue his dream with music. It was also his hometown that opened its arms to welcome the young artist back when he was in difficulty, where he composed a few important songs that completely changed his life.
