Having performed for the troops many times, this was the first trip to perform for the troops in Truong Sa for Ms. Do Huong Giang - Deputy Head of the Piano and Vocal Department (Central University of Art Education). She shared that at first she was afraid of seasickness, but the warm and close-knit atmosphere of everyone helped her not feel tired and became even more excited.
