The young dancer who is creating a sensation on social media as people try to find out his identity is Pham Thach Tung (9 years old), nicknamed Soc at home, a student in class 3B at Cua Nam 1 Primary School (Vinh City).

Sóc has only been involved in hip-hop for a little over two years, but he has already shown a natural talent for this art form. His father, Phạm Hữu Phương, said: “My wife and I always encourage our children to engage in sports and arts, helping them confidently express their abilities and equipping them with good life skills for the future.”

Sóc is very passionate about hip-hop, and although we know this isn't a long-term career path for her, the family still supports and accompanies her in all hip-hop competitions and tournaments."

Little Squirrel is very confident and passionate about hip-hop.

Tran Quoc Hung, Soc's hip-hop teacher, commented: "Soc is a talented boy with a knack for hip-hop; he learns very quickly. Just a few days after starting class, he had mastered the basic hip-hop techniques. He and his family want him to move up to the senior class with middle and high school students. Even though he's learning ahead of his level, Soc absorbs the techniques just as well as the older students."

In 2015, just one year after starting his hip-hop career, young Pham Thach Tung made a strong impression when he confidently participated in the 4th season of "So You Think You Can Dance" and won over the three judges.

Tran Quoc Hung, who accompanied Soc in that memorable competition, shared: “The judges were very impressed with Soc's performance and gave valuable feedback: 'Today, at this competition, we are witnessing the birth of a child star!'"

Despite being highly praised, the competition rules only allow contestants aged 16 and above, so Sóc did not meet the age requirement to advance to the next rounds. Nevertheless, for the first time in the competition's history, the judges awarded Sóc a special ticket – an invitation to participate in the "Dancing with the Stars" competition in 2024 – when Sóc reaches the age requirement.

Little Squirrel performed on stage at the So You Think You Can Dance competition, season 4, in 2015.

Success followed success, most recently, the young dancer won first prize in two categories: freestyle and showcase at the "National Professional Junior Dancer Competition".

The two dance performances were scheduled far apart by the organizers, and despite performing tirelessly from morning until dusk, young Pham Thach Tung still showcased his innate talent, completely winning over the competition's judges.

Confident on stage at various hip-hop competitions, both large and small, these young dancers showcase their innate talent for this art form.

For many years, Soc and his older sister were all-around excellent students at Cua Nam 1 Primary School.

Talented and accustomed to the spotlight of competitions since childhood, in real life, Soc is a lively, mischievous, and friendly boy like any other his age. His academic achievements at school are also impressive, having earned the title of all-around excellent student for three consecutive years.
