Tung Duong: 'I give in to my wife not because I'm afraid but because I respect her'

The singer of "Con co" shares his feelings for his wife and family life after having children.

- What fate brought you and your wife together?

-We met through a mutual friend, Ms. Thanh Lam, and it has been 10 years now. After a few years of dating, we decided to move in together. Giang is a woman with personality, independent in life and finances, exactly the type of woman I like. Sometimes I wonder why I didn't meet this person but met her? But thinking about it, I see that everything in life that comes together is fate.

- What do you and your wife agree on?

- Before we fell in love, we were close friends, with similar tastes in art, work style and philosophy. First of all, our tastes in music and art are very similar. Because Giang started out as a painter, she gave me new inspiration for stage design, costume ideas, singing style and emotions when singing. Over the years, the audience will see my diverse music and fashion styles. She plays a huge role in my success today.

- When you disagree, how do you and your husband resolve it?

- Although we are in agreement, sometimes in life, we still have different views. I never argue with my wife because as a man, I should not compete with women, especially family members. Whenever we have disagreements or even if Giang is wrong, I always give in. After the anger subsides, we both sit down and talk frankly with each other, not "close our eyes and ignore" so that the next time we have conflicts. Therefore, family conflicts are quickly resolved thanks to the honesty of both of us. I give in to my wife not because I am afraid but because I respect her more.

- Why do you respect your wife so much?

- Giang is a strong-willed person, a man of his word, and has sacrificed a lot for me. She supports, manages, and organizes my work in a reasonable order. After each performance, Giang sits below, receives the audience's opinions, and gives her suggestions for my concert.

Two days after giving birth, she came to the rehearsal, sat under the sound control to observe and gain experience for my performance. When Giang came, I was extremely confused, not abstaining from anything but giving birth by cesarean section. At that time, I did not care about anything other than the great sacrifice my wife had made for me. She did not like to accompany me in the press but stayed behind to take care of and promote my career. My wife is a woman of character and it is natural to respect her.

- Ten years together, what is the most memorable memory of the two of you?

- We are like other couples, we have gone through joys and sorrows, difficulties together. I will keep the sad part a secret, but the memory I remember most about my wife is in 2015, one day before the live show Decade of Joy, she gave birth. At that time, I no longer had the mind to rehearse, I stayed by her side all night in the hospital.

- How do you share childcare with your wife?

- Despite my busy schedule, I still take the time to help my wife take care of the children. I never thought of myself as a man who only goes out to earn money, leaving housework to women. After the Heaven and Earth live show on September 23, my child was sick with a viral fever for 10 days. I stayed up all night to change diapers, make milk, and give him medicine. That was also a way to help my wife sleep better after a hard day's work.

- What is your concept of love now?

- When we have been together for a long time, our feelings are normal like other couples, not too passionate but not bland. Especially when we have children, it is like a thread that binds the two of us. Sometimes the feelings between us are not simply love but also family and soulmate love. My concept of love when I was young was passionate and devoted, but now it is much more leisurely and calm. As time passes, people's feelings will also change like that.
