The most enjoyable part of the performance was that the audience had the opportunity to witness her love affair with Nguyen Du - her first love but deeply in the heart of the character Ho Xuan Huong.

Meritorious Artist Ca Le Hong - member of the Arts Council of the Department of Culture and Information of Ho Chi Minh City commented that, overcoming the fate that society has given to women, poetess Ho Xuan Huong has become a symbol of female intellectuals, using her pen to fight against tyranny. The profound criticisms of a society "neither mandarin nor lord" in her poems still live on over time.
