Y2K treasure , reminiscent of school youth.
Kho Bau reaching 4.1 million views is not too high when compared to Bac Bling by Hoa Minzy or a recent hit, Mep Mieu by Nguyen Hung.
However, in a market dominated by Although Em xinh say hi and Phuong My Chi have "dominated" the past time, this is still a pretty good and remarkable number for the Champion of Vietnam Idol 2015.
(S) TRONG Trong Hieu's Treasure is a hit this summer
Treasure paves the way for the EP of the same name to be released this September, followed by a solo live show in October, celebrating the 10th anniversary of (S) TRONG Trong Hieu's brother's career.

Trong Hieu's products are all carefully invested from music to images.
However, some products are considered "too Western" and not really suitable for Vietnamese audiences' tastes, leading to low coverage.
Trong Hieu feels lost between the music he loves and the aesthetics of Vietnamese popular music.
It wasn't until Anh trai vu ngan cong gai that Trong Hieu's name became more viral. Online, audiences shared his moments and his "godly" dance moves.
He also decided to change his stage name to (S) TRONG as a new step in his career journey.
Possessing a good voice, top-notch choreography, diverse, open-minded and energetic performance ability on stage, and "clean" scandals, Trong Hieu deserves to be known and loved more in V-pop.
Compared to previous products , Treasure received good response because the music color is suitable for the market, however there are also opinions that the artist has reduced his own style to "please" the crowd.
In fact, this pop ballad still has the typical US-UK style that Hieu pursues; however, the harmony and arrangement bring back the nostalgic color of Vietnamese music in the 2000s. When listening, the audience feels both familiar and strange, showing the 9x artist's efforts to reach the mass audience.

"I've been waiting for this day to come to you for a long time", "You are the singer I wish more people knew about", "I love Hieu, talented, polite, warm, friendly, serious about his job but only now has he reached what Vietnamese music listeners need"... are the comments from the audience under the MV on YouTube.
There are also some audiences who think that each person chooses a path to follow their own artistic ideals.
"Hieu's path is bumpy but also full of proud marks. For him, it is an extremely happy journey because he can live fully with his own passion. Late success is sustainable success," said @tuyenvucat6937.
