Inspiration for making the MV "Tet Come Back to Mom"

The year 2023 marked a memorable milestone in Thu Huyen's artistic career. She was one of the artists sent to join the working group to Truong Sa archipelago.

Although the trip was arduous, with drifting at sea and seasickness…; she was very happy to be able to bring her singing voice to a remote island to visit and encourage the soldiers on duty guarding the sea and sky of the Fatherland and the people on the island.

Singer Bui Thu Huyen released the MV "Tet Ve Voi Me".

“Coming to Truong Sa, I felt the sacredness of Vietnam’s sea and sky. I was very moved by the sacrifices of the young soldiers who were on duty to guard the islands. After the trip, I told myself that I would live a life worthy of the sacrifices of the soldiers here,” Thu Huyen confided.

At the end of the year, she had another tour to serve overseas Vietnamese to welcome the New Year in 3 European countries: Czech Republic, Germany and Hungary. The 2-week trip was a great success. Along with fellow artists Linh Hoa, Le Ngoc, A Pao (Ngo Sy Ngoc); Bui Thu Huyen with her strength of sweet, deep folk songs, left many emotions for overseas Vietnamese audiences far from home.

The applause was unceasing. Some audience members said they had met her again exactly 15 years after her last performance in the Czech Republic and still recalled the memories of their previous meeting.

Inspired by the emotions of that tour, when returning to Hanoi , Bui Thu Huyen recorded and filmed the MV Tet Ve Voi Me . This is a composition by young musician Quang Hung based on Phuong Thao's poem, a song with a folk melody, expressing the feelings of children far from home when Tet comes and spring comes but they have not been able to visit their family and parents.
