Ngo Tuan Dat said that when he came to Korea to make a living, he initially rapped just to be able to speak, to tell stories, to satisfy his emotions. There were days when an idea popped into his head while he was working, so he had to sneak into the bathroom with his boss to quickly write it down on paper, "I was afraid that when I got home at night I would forget."

When he was mature and realized he had a talent for this genre of music and wanted to be known by the entire rap community, he played rap with a different attitude, he made music like a trained professional. From there, the stage name 7dnight was born.

He sent some of it back to his family, and the rest he bought musical instruments and studio equipment to be able to play music freely. From those days, Dat's musical personality was shaped. Although it was rap, the story he told touched anyone who enjoyed and loved this genre of music.

Then by chance he met his musical idol, Rap Viet coach Bigdaddy, in Korea and quickly made a strong impression on Big. This prestigious coach guided and introduced him to join the Rap Viet program and hoped he would make a splash after the competition.

Born and raised in Nghi My commune - Nghi Loc, since childhood Dat saw that his left hand only had 2 fingers, he asked his parents and was told that it was a war legacy. He suffered from Agent Orange from his grandfather when both his maternal and paternal grandfathers participated in the fiery Binh Tri Thien battlefield in 1974. "Although my family was poor, I always received the pampering of my parents, they poured all their love into me because I was a child who was often teased by my friends. In response to that boundless love, I always told myself to be good and live a good life so as not to disappoint my parents."

At the age of 18, Dat left school to go to Korea to study and work. He was determined to earn a lot of money to send back to his parents in the countryside, hoping that his family would pay off all their debts and have a less difficult life. He said that during his days in Korea, his father only said one thing: "Try to work hard, save your money carefully, don't let money go to waste." Those simple words but containing his father's immense love were the motivation for Dat on the next journey. Because his father had no money, he could only see him off at Vinh airport and then sadly turned away.

In Korea, he faced hundreds of thousands of difficulties. He struggled to find work from place to place, but many bosses shook their heads just by looking at his hands when he took off his gloves. However, Dat's patience was rewarded when he was finally hired. To earn money to ensure his life and pay off his family's debt, Dat did all kinds of jobs from aluminum and glass, construction, agriculture, dishwashing... There were times when he had to work hard for 12-14 hours. And during the 7 years of making a living in the land of Kim Chi, he was determined not to return home, even though he missed his family very much. "Whenever I was sad because of loneliness, I called my mother, hearing her advice made me more determined," Dat said.

When Ngo Tuan Dat chose the number 7 as the first in his stage name, he realized that he was truly confident, accepting and loving his body's flaws.

At the Hope 2025 program on VTV3 during the recent Tet holiday, rapper Ngo Tuan Dat told about the birth of this number 7, which surprised and moved the audience. For him, nothing in this life is easy, even for normal people, for those with some disabilities it is even more difficult. However, Dat has done it, has touched success on the path he is passionate about and dedicated to.
