Nguyen Van Chung bought a house thanks to his hit song with 6.5 billion views, and rarely talks about his failed marriage.

(Dan Tri Newspaper) - The success of "Continuing the Story of Peace" not only brought Nguyen Van Chung closer to the audience, but also brought him an economic turning point after many life events.

Recently, in a conversation with MC Nguyen Khang, musician Nguyen Van Chung shared some noteworthy details about his personal life after the success of his song "Continuing the Story of Peace" - a hit that has garnered 6.5 billion views (as of September this year).

The resounding success of "Continuing the Story of Peace" not only brought Nguyen Van Chung's name closer to the audience, but also provided him with financial stability, helping him fulfill his unfinished responsibilities to his family.

Over the past year, the musician has bought an apartment for his father, in a place he loves. He also bought another apartment near his son's school, hoping to make it more convenient for his son to commute, live, and study.

According to Nguyen Van Chung, at the present time, the major difficulties in his life have gradually been resolved. A stable career and secure finances have helped him pay off his debts and fulfill his responsibilities to his father, son, and siblings in the family.

However, what troubles the musician most is that his late mother no longer had the chance to witness his achievements, as well as the new house he bought.

Continuing the story of peace, which was written in 2023 but only gained widespread popularity this year, while his mother passed away in 2024. During her lifetime, she wished for a house with a flower garden in front, a wish he never had the chance to fulfill for her.

Looking back on his journey, Nguyen Van Chung acknowledges that his life has been intertwined with many major events, from marital breakdown to the loss of loved ones. Each shock has left a profound mark, not only on his mental life but also imprinted on his music .

The divorce process left the musician completely exhausted, both mentally and financially. He had to work from morning till night, taking on any job he could find to make ends meet, leading to prolonged insomnia for six months. During that time, he faced both emotional pain and immense financial pressure.

Nguyen Van Chung said that music is the lifeline that helped him overcome life's upheavals. From breaking up with his girlfriend and the breakdown of his family to being completely exhausted both mentally and financially, he still sat by his guitar every night. There were times when he only wrote instrumental music, because lyrics were not enough to express the tumultuous emotions in his heart.

The greatest motivation that helped him stay strong during that dark period was his mother and son. He didn't allow himself to give up, because he didn't want his son to suffer further from the adults' brokenness.

In 2024, Nguyen Van Chung faced another great loss when his mother passed away. Although he managed to remain calm and handle all the funeral arrangements, he was left with a lingering feeling of emptiness. In moments of honor or recognition, what he longed for most was to have his mother by his side to witness it.

After many ups and downs in his career and life, the musician said he is entering a rare period of peace.

Despite the immense attention he received after the success of his song with 6.5 billion views, Nguyen Van Chung's daily life remains as simple as ever. He works in the mornings, eats lunch with his children after school, plays football in the afternoons, and dedicates his evenings to songwriting. For him, this is a peaceful yet necessary rhythm of life to maintain balance after many years of upheaval.

After more than 20 years dedicated to songwriting, Nguyen Van Chung wants to take some time to rest, reflect on his next plans, and find a suitable team to hold a live show celebrating his musical journey.
