The late singer Viet Quang - A talented, unlucky life: Being played with wormwood, wanted to end his life because of debt default

Viet Quang was born in 1977, famous since the early 2000s, at the same time as My Tam, Hong Ngoc, Quang Vinh, and Thanh Thao. Initially, Viet Quang wanted to develop a career as an actor instead of a singer. He studied Theater and Cinema and was in the same course as Thai Hoa. Then, music came to him like a predestined relationship when he was introduced by Thai Hoa as an MC at a music event.

That year, the singer performing at the event was late, so Viet Quang had to sing to buy time. His voice was loved and cheered by the audience at the event. Since then, the male singer decided to drop out of theater school to switch to singing.

He has a tenor voice, handsome appearance and is the owner of many hit songs such as Come Here, Love Adventure, Love, Sad Cafe, Student Time. His songs are associated with the youth of the audience of the 8X and 9X generations.

During his career, he has released many albums, of which I'll always love you released in 2001 is the first product. Next, the male singer has the album "Forgotten Heart - Still Loving You", "White Sky", "Love You" which is loved by the audience.

In the early 2000s, Viet Quang was considered the idol of a large number of young audiences. Most of his songs revolve around love content with youthful melody and expression. Viet Quang also invested in the image with costumes designed by Cong Tri. At that time, the image of Viet Quang was associated with romantic parted hair, dyed in bright colors.

Songs performed by Viet Quang appear continuously on radio and television as well as in public venues. He performed 6-7 venues in Ho Chi Minh City in one day with an income ranging from 20-30 million VND per show. Viet Quang had to refuse many invitations because the number of shows was too much, he could not guarantee his health.

Viet Quang is not only loved in Vietnam, but he also has many invitations to perform abroad. With a great income from singing, Viet Quang buys houses, cars, and invests in real estate.

In addition to being a singer, Viet Quang also composed a number of songs for Pham Quynh Anh and Thu Thuy.

In 2008, Viet Quang lost his voice and his career fell into a stalemate. There are rumors that the male singer lost his voice and could not continue to hold the mic. After a long time, Viet Quang said that he was played badly by his colleagues and used wormwood.

Viet Quang confided: "I'm very modern, every time anyone talks about talismans, I don't believe it. But I suddenly lost my health, it seems that all strength has disappeared. From a healthy young man, I suddenly lost my health. sick o emaciated, from nearly 70 kg to less than 50 kg Everyone says that I am addicted to this disease even though I do not smoke, do not drink alcohol.

I couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, stayed in my room all day and all night without going out. Every time I see the light, I run away like a man with rabies and every time I try to return to the stage, I am destroyed...".

So he decided to go to Canada. On the evening of June 8, 2013, Viet Quang returned to a performance in Ho Chi Minh City, but his song The Changed Daughter made the audience wince because of his "whispering" voice, without the force to disappoint the audience. He was quiet for many more years after that, with no new music products or participation in new events.

It is known that at that time, he switched to real estate. At first, he had a successful business, then gradually lost money and went bankrupt. Mentally broken, he used to think negatively, but thanks to his mother and many relatives' advice, the singer regained his spirit.

Viet Quang admitted that there was a time when he wanted to end his life when he went bankrupt.

"In the past, I saw people doing business to get rich, so I also wanted to try business, even though I didn't know anything about this field at that time, I could only sing. I listened to my friends first. Investing in real estate to make money quickly, at first, I 'hit the trick' really big, but after that, the money also slowly lost, and lost 10 times what I spent." Viet Quang said.

He said, once he considered suicide by taking pills, but the case failed because his mother found out. She then took him to a psychiatrist to treat his depression.

4 years later, when appearing at a music event for students, Viet Quang shared that this is the right time to return to singing.

Viet Quang's determination to work makes many colleagues admire. He accepted to return to the original starting point, redoing from zero because the music market had changed. Singer Quang Thanh - Viet Quang's close senior - said that he had witnessed Viet Quang collapse by rumors of debt default.

But after only a short time, he saw the singer smiling optimistically: "Where I fall, I will get up there". Quang Thanh said: "Viet Quang can overcome guilt, face events that if I met me, I would have retired a long time ago. For Quang, singing is a breath."

The male singer announced that he would invest more in music and work regularly. Admittedly quite shy because the music market at this time has changed too much compared to its heyday, however, Viet Quang wants to seize the opportunity.

At the end of 2019, Viet Quang has the MV Let's get married, let's get married to mark the return after a long time of silence. After that, he continued to release the MV Spring for me, Spring for you, Light in the night. In general, the expression and music Viet Quang chooses when returning is quite old, no longer suitable for the audience's tastes, so the views are modest, the effects on social networks are also lackluster.

When releasing the MV "Light in the Night" in August 2020, Viet Quang shared: "This is a composition by Minh Khang and was performed by me a long time ago, but now it has been released with a MV shot in Phan Thiet. the opening product in a series of upcoming songs to continue the journey of conquering music that I left unfinished."

However, the audience has not seen him have a new product. Instead, he appeared in several television programs. At the beginning of the year, he participated in the program Conquering Idols as a theme judge.

The last time Viet Quang participated in a gameshow was "It's so strange" in May 2021. In the program, guests such as Ung Hoang Phuc, Thuan Nguyen, Giang Hong Ngoc were surprised by the appearance of Viet Quang. Thuan Nguyen said that when he was young, he was a fan of Viet Quang and used to go to many of his seniors' venues to ask for autographs. The players also shared about the golden past, many female fans of the singer born in 1977.

In June 2021, the old disease recurred, causing Viet Quang to be hospitalized with pneumonia, temporarily putting aside his music career with many cherished plans.

On August 12, a representative of Viet Quang's family said that the male singer died at the age of 44 at 00:30 on the same day. According to family representatives, over time, Viet Quang's disease recurred and worsened. The male singer often has headaches, vomiting, difficulty eating.
