Singer-songwriter Bui Cong Nam: I believe in destiny in music.

Bui Cong Nam always uses a smile to interact with the audience.

Previously, audiences only knew Bui Cong Nam for his profound compositions, where music told life stories as authentically as his own. But recently, a very different Bui Cong Nam has emerged before the public.

Reporter: "King of Spring Music," "content mogul," "king of love songs"... these are some of the flattering titles the audience has given you. Does this solidify your reputation in the music market?

- Singer-songwriter BUI CONG NAM: Those "awards" make me feel both happy and embarrassed. I still consider myself a student, always striving every day. The success I have achieved comes from the affection of the audience, and I don't dare claim that I am "worthy" of those beautiful titles.

But I must admit, being loved so much by the audience makes me happier and more confident in the path I've chosen. My passion for art is inherent, and I tell myself I must strive every day. Now, with the audience's love, I have the motivation to pursue my passion, turn my dreams into reality, and work hard to be worthy of that affection – which is also my way of showing gratitude to the audience.

What new songs will the "King of Spring Music" bring this year to delight the audience?

- Witnessing the success of the "children" I've nurtured and given birth to, the joy is indescribable. I continue to compose regularly every day, and if everything goes smoothly, I will certainly share melodies that suit the Tet atmosphere with the audience.

Nam is very talented in music, and incredibly funny on reality TV shows. These two qualities are what make him so popular with audiences. So, what do you consider your biggest strength?

- Actually, I'm not entirely sure, I just know I try my best and cherish every opportunity that comes my way. The most important thing is not to force emotions, but to let things happen naturally. With music, I always maintain and explore genuine emotions, and when performing in front of an audience, I am myself every day. Perhaps it is this naturalness that has helped me gain people's affection.

Bui Cong Nam's music is always distinguished by its multi-layered, profound lyrics that touch the hearts of listeners. It's hard to believe that someone as young as Nam could be so mature in thought and emotion.

- I don't think I'm exactly "old" or overly profound. Personally, I feel I still have a lot to learn about how to explore and use words in music. If people listen to many of the songs I've composed, they'll see that I write with quite a few different vibes in my musical storytelling. Sometimes it seems a bit "old" to suit the idea of ​​the song, but there are also songs that are very innocent and pure.

With his usual style, one might think Nam is better suited to working behind the scenes rather than on stage. However, when he appears on reality TV shows, viewers see a very different Nam. So, what is his true self?

- I usually concentrate and choose "a private corner" when making music, but I'm more open when I'm in front of people - of course, I'm more comfortable once I get to know them, but I'm still a bit shy when I first meet them.

Does Nam feel pressured by being in showbiz, and is he satisfied with what he has achieved?

- I still experience pressure like anyone in this profession, but that pressure helps me train my emotions. It's like talking to myself, and I often remind myself: Enjoy everything, because the universe has already arranged everything.

"I hope I still have enough feeling to continue writing my own story and touch the emotions of the audience."

I feel very happy and grateful. The level of satisfaction varies at different times, so I always try to balance and control my emotions. At the same time, I always remind myself to work diligently and enjoy everything that happens!

What is Nam's dream when pursuing art?

- I just hope my music can stay with the audience for a long time. Lately, I've also been thinking about a big stage of my own, like a solo concert, although this idea has only just appeared in my mind.

Audiences still prefer Nam releasing more artistic products rather than participating in reality shows. So, what are Nam's plans for upcoming personal projects?

- I still write and record when inspiration strikes. Everything is progressing step by step, and I'm sure that when the product is released, I will be truly satisfied with what I have created.

People often say Nam is "super busy." So what is he busy with?

- I'm mostly busy because music takes up most of my time. Besides that, there are other collaborative projects and schedules. Even so, I'm happy with this pace of life and enjoy it because I'm loved by everyone.

What is truly important in Bui Cong Nam's career development journey?

- For me, perseverance is key. Music needs time to mature, and I also need time to grow with it. Everyone entering showbiz has to find their right footing to make an impression on the public. I consider my singing voice not bad, but if I keep my popular songs to myself, they might not be well-received by the audience.

I believe in destiny in music and I continue to search for the answer to the question: "Who is singer Bui Cong Nam?" To solve this problem, I think hard work and perseverance are necessary. I have ambitions to become famous, but not in a reckless way.

Does Bui Cong Nam no longer have to worry about food, clothing, and shelter?

My life is more comfortable now than before. But I'm still constantly striving for my future goals.

Some people believe that entering showbiz is about earning money and fame. But for Nam, is that true?

- I think, first and foremost, to pursue my passion, I need to have a sufficient income to live on. If there are other accompanying benefits, for me, that's a stroke of luck for someone in this profession. When I decided to pursue music, I had a great deal of respect for the profession.

I am acutely aware that I must create beautiful values ​​in life, both inspiring the public and nurturing myself. I have received songwriting contracts worth over 100 million VND, but I have also turned down many unsuitable projects. I always try not to be blinded by materialism or fame.

In reality TV shows, Bui Cong Nam is always open and approachable. Meanwhile, in his writing, Bui Cong Nam embodies the image of a "young old man" - quietly observing, gathering everything around him, and recounting it in a subtle and delicate way.
