Sharing with Dan Tri reporter , Dam Vinh Hung said that after going through many events, he saw everything change. Each event gave him lessons and contemplation depending on the severity.

"But above all, I often think positively to forget the negative things. I still have a singing voice and a healthy body, but I can't avoid bad years and bad months... Every storm will pass and the sky will be calm. Now I don't live for myself anymore, I also live for my son," the male singer said.

After the recent scandals, Dam Vinh Hung has never said "if only", because every decision in the past had a reason and no matter what the consequences were, he has no regrets because those things made him who he is today.

The male singer admitted that the 9 months of not being able to stand on stage were the saddest time of his life.

“There are people who can no longer stand on stage, maybe they will be sad to death. But I still think, maybe it is the arrangement of the ancestors, of fate to give me a quiet time, to make me think about everything more thoroughly...", Dam Vinh Hung shared.

When asked: "There are artists who have had conflicts to the point of buying all of each other's hit songs. If you were in such a situation, how would you react?"

Dam Vinh Hung said: "Musicians have the right to sell, and anyone who can afford it has the right to buy that song. I am a person who is willing to play and play very fair. I could buy the song for double the price, but I don't do that. Buyers don't have to own the work to be able to sing well."

Previously, there was information that the song " Xin loi tinh yeu" (Sorry Love) in the series of songs by musician Minh Nhien had been "purchased the exclusive lifetime use rights" by billionaire Gerard Williams.

Therefore, Dam Vinh Hung will not be able to sing Xin loi tinh yeu , the hit (famous song known by many people) that has been associated with his name for the past 20 years. The male singer did not mention anyone's name but confirmed that he was not allowed to sing Xin loi tinh yeu.

He said: "I will never sing that song on any stage again for a long time. I thank Mr. Minh Nhien for being so kind to me over the past ten years.

Now I have 14 more Sorry Love songs . I have never been one to erode old glory but always wait for new ones. In these 14 songs, there will definitely be 4 or 5 hits."

Dam Vinh Hung's real name is Huynh Minh Hung, born in 1971 in Quang Nam . He became known after winning the 4th prize of Ho Chi Minh City Television Singing Contest in 1998.

Since the early 2000s, the singer has attracted attention with many songs such as: Binh Minh Se Mang Em Di, Goc Pho Moss Xanh, Tinh Oi Xin Ngu Yen... In addition to singing, he is also a judge in music competitions.
