Hoàng Thùy Linh expresses regret and apologies for perceived condescending behavior

After being criticized for her alleged "condescending" behavior at the concert launch press conference, singer Hoang Thuy Linh has sincerely apologized to the audience and reflected on her actions. In a heartfelt letter addressed to both the audience and media on September 18, Linh expressed her understanding of the responsibility to apologize for her behavior towards everyone who has shown her kindness and support throughout her career. She also emphasized that this experience would serve as a valuable lesson for her to learn how to behave and communicate appropriately in similar situations in the future.

During the launch of her first-ever concert, "Vietnamese," on September 6, Linh faced criticism following interactions with a reporter. Recognizing her strengths and weaknesses along her artistic journey, she acknowledged the need for continuous improvement to perfect her chosen music genre.

Linh's letter concluded with a promise to her loving audience and the general public that she would make efforts to strive for betterment in the coming years. Through this incident, she expressed her genuine gratitude for the support she has received, which serves as her motivation to grow and develop in her artistic career.

Hoang Thuy Linh answered questions about Ho Hoai Anh's live singing ability and role at a press conference on September 6 in Ho Chi Minh City.

When questioned about her ability to perform live, instead of addressing the question directly, the singer chose to use an analogy. She compared singing live to walking, stating that she knows how to walk, but sometimes accidents happen, like slipping and falling in the rain, causing the crowd to claim she "doesn't know how to walk." "So, in your opinion, do you know how to walk?" she asked the person who posed the question.

When asked about musician Ho Hoai Anh's role in the live show, the singer didn't provide a direct answer but brought up the concept of "human love." She explained that she didn't want to focus on right or wrong but emphasized the importance of human love in everything. She acknowledged that her talent and the support of those who stood by her during difficult times made her realize the need to slow down and allow others to accompany her on her journey.

Despite the reporter's insistence on specific details about Ho Hoai Anh's role as a music director or sound engineer, Hoang Thuy Linh redirected the conversation by asking, "So, how do you plan to claim the title?" Subsequently, she unexpectedly descended to the auditorium, pulling the reporter onto the stage and standing in front of the crowd. She then proceeded to ask the reporter probing questions about their own way of life.
