Director Nguyen Quang Dung apologizes.

Regarding the controversy surrounding the hiring of an unpaid assistant that caused a stir on social media, Nguyen Quang Dung has just posted a new message on his personal page.

Nguyen Quang Dung announced that he had closed the controversial job posting for an assistant, adding: "I didn't expect so many people to send in CVs, and people are still sending them in every day. Currently, I have two projects, so I can only arrange two people for each project."

Nguyen Quang Dung admitted he was surprised that "the story went further than I thought."

According to Nguyen Quang Dung, he himself was hesitant and confused about whether or not to post this article. He shared his perspective: "Because I knew for sure that many people would say this and that. Because lately I've been a little surprised that the story has gone further than I thought, and I didn't expect so many people on Facebook to be interested, suddenly exceeding my control."

Previously, when Nguyen Quang Dung was recruiting a personal assistant, fewer than 20 applications were received. This time, with many people sharing the post and discussing it, the number of applications has reached hundreds. "Every day people still send in applications, but my personal assistant and I are too busy at the end of the year to handle them all. So we had to post an announcement instead of keeping it private for friends or anything," he wrote.

Regarding the incident, Nguyen Quang Dung stated: “Those who understand me and share positive opinions about me, please be cautious and consider carefully, because I see many people going to your pages to argue, even insult. I apologize for bothering everyone. I'm used to it, but I'm very reluctant to bother others, which is why I don't share positive articles on my Facebook.”

Previously, many viewers felt that the director hiring an unpaid assistant was inappropriate, but others argued that it was a great opportunity for young people.

Nguyen Quang Dung said that for those who have submitted applications, he will reply soon and arrange a meeting after the holiday to discuss whether they can work together. "Especially for those of you who are in your second or third year of university and haven't graduated yet, I think you should finish your studies first. Or wait until summer to look for career opportunities," he expressed.

Developments in the controversy surrounding Nguyen Quang Dung

Previously, Nguyen Quang Dung caused a stir when he posted an advertisement seeking a professional assistant. He wanted to find a collaborator whose task would be to find, compile, and organize materials for working sessions with the creative team and producers. However, the post sparked controversy, with some arguing that seeking an unpaid assistant was inappropriate and unfair to the employee.

Regarding the controversy, Nguyen Quang Dung has spoken out. The director of "Southern Forest Land" expressed his gratitude to those who understood and even spoke up to explain things for him. As for those who didn't understand and complained, he found it normal because of his belief that "in life, many things that are meaningful and useful to one person may be meaningless and illogical to another."
