On the evening of September 18, the program Words of Gratitude - Red Flower River took place at the historical site of Long Dai ferry, Quang Tri province; broadcast live on VTV1 channel. Tung Duong sang 3 songs: Binh Tri Thien Khoi Lua, What is more beautiful and Continue writing the story of peace .
These are all memorable performances, in which the performance "What's More Beautiful" went viral when Tung Duong sang with a heroic style, with a choir and a lantern release to commemorate and pay tribute to soldiers.
Nguyen Hung's 'lifetime' song
"In the night of lanterns after the joyful day of victory. How many names remain here. The war will be over if I haven't returned. Mother, cheer up, you have a heroic son." The familiar lyrics of the song "What's More Beautiful " resounded in the middle of the night of lanterns, when lanterns were released into the water to commemorate those who "remained here", creating an emotional scene.
A fanpage shared this performance and commented: "Nguyen Hung composed a song of a lifetime, it will definitely be performed in many shows. A revolutionary song in the new era."
During the performance, Tung Duong brought the song to its climax many times, especially in the above chorus.
What's more beautiful - Tung Duong
"The war is over if I haven't come home yet. Mom, cheer up, you have a heroic son" - Nguyen Hung sings this line in a whisper like the confession of a son who has remained on the battlefield, creating a feeling of nostalgia and sadness but not grief. Tung Duong sings it high and long, in a heroic and tragic style.
An audience member liked both versions: "Nguyen Hung's singing was not professional but it was whispering and passionate, it felt like the lyrics of a soldier going to war. And Tung Duong is a professional singer who sings at a truly top level, bringing the song to a new level. I like both versions, they're wonderful."
Another audience commented: "Hung's original version is good, really good! But Tung Duong's cover is good in a different way. If Nguyen Hung is the beauty of peace, Duong's version is the majesty of glorious feats of arms. Each version has a different emotion. As long as beautiful voices sing, that is happiness."
This audience member believes that other people singing What's More Beautiful cannot have the unique simplicity of Nguyen Hung, so they will put their own mindset into the song, "patriotic in their own way".
What could be more beautiful : The simplest is the most beautiful?
But there are also many opinions that the song is still most suitable for Nguyen Hung. "No matter who performs this song, I still like the version sung by Nguyen Hung better"; "This song is not suitable for advanced vocal techniques. Just sing it in a simple voice like everyday speech, sing with your heart"... are the comments.

Previously, Nguyen Hung had performed a duet of "What's more beautiful" with another singer, Bui Cong Nam, in the concert "Stars join the army " at the end of August. The performance was praised by many people, but like this time, many audiences thought that Nguyen Hung's voice was still the most "standard" for the song.
Audience member Kim Ngan wrote: "Nguyen Hung's voice sounds like it has scratches when singing What's More Beautiful? Thanks to those scratches, this song is extremely suitable, set in the context of a young soldier going to battle to protect the Fatherland, facing the fierceness of bombs and bullets but still wanting to send lines of feelings, comfort containing love and pride to his mother."
