Artist Dien Trung is the fourth generation in a family with a tradition of Cai Luong theater art, the husband of artist Le Thanh Thao - daughter of Meritorious Artist Truong Son of the Bau Thang - Minh To ancient opera family.

Artist Dien Trung said that his great-grandparents were originally Southern Don Ca amateur artists, and then the male artist's grandmother worked as a housewife. His parents' generation also followed the profession of singing and being a dancer.

However, because of the hardships of an artist's life, artist Dien Trung's parents retired and did not want their son to continue on this arduous path.

However, passion and artistic bloo.d still flow silently in Dien Trung's body. As a chil.d, Dien Trung often dreamed of becoming an artist every time he saw the car of Tran Huu Trang Cai Luong troupe passing by.

After that, Dien Trung enrolled in the Small Business Singing contest at the market where he helped his parents sell. At the final round, artist Dien Trung revealed and invited his family to attend.

Seeing Dien Trung's rekindled intention to pursue art, his mother did not support her son pursuing a singing career and threatened to kick him out of the house if he decided to sing.

However, the male artist's love for art has not been extinguished. He asked his mother for permission to play the piano instead of singing and she agreed.

According to artist Dien Trung, perhaps his mother did not want to completely cut off his connection with art, so she agreed to let him perform. Meanwhile, artist Dien Trung's father silently supported his son by finding him a guitar to perform.

According to artist Dien Trung, Meritorious Artist Minh Minh Tam was the first teacher who guided him to Cai Luong.

After that, artist Dien Trung fell in love with Meritorious Artist To Chau and was invited by him to sing with Meritorious Artist Ut Bach Lan. Since then, Dien Trung had the opportunity to interact with Meritorious Artist Ut Bach Lan through performances with the White Orchid troupe at temple locations or volunteer programs.

At that time, Dien Trung was adopted by Meritorious Artist Ut Bach Lan and helped him develop his Cai Luong singing career.

The male artist confided: "I sang with Ut Bach Lan's mother for a long time until I returned to the Tran Huu Trang theater. Ut Bach Lan's mother was the second person who guided Dien Trung to pursue a singing career again."

Adore and idolize his wife

In 2005, Dien Trung's family decided to settle abroad and wanted him to come with them, but the male artist refused because he was still attached to his Cai Luong career.

In 2006, Dien Trung participated in the television contest Vong Co Star, the predecessor of Vong Co Golden Bell. With the help of Meritorious Artist Ut Bach Lan, Meritorious Artist To Chau, Meritorious Artist Minh Minh Tam, Dien Trung achieved the first successes in his career when entering the final of the program.

At that time, artist Quoc Kiet (currently director of Tran Huu Trang Cai Luong Theater) was a judge judging the program and recognized Dien Trung's artistic qualities so he introduced him to the Light Up Faith troupe.

When introduced to the Light Up Faith group, Dien Trung immediately sold the organ to focus entirely on singing.

Although my family is also the foundation that helps me a lot in the process of learning and rubbing. There are members My wife taught me a lot, but that was just a convenience for me to do my job," he confided.

According to Dien Trung, whether a husband and wife are both Cai Luong artists is an advantage or disadvantage depends on each person's perspective. He shared: "Some people consider that working in a different profession will help them have a background to focus on development. But for me, both pursuing art is a big advantage. The proof is that when practicing opera, We can share and give each other suggestions. Usually my wife will observe and remind me and vice versa."
