Liu Yu: From "C position" of Sáng Tạo Doanh to the name that Hung Huynh "stole" from his costume

In the Chinese entertainment industry, there are few faces that have a traditional color and shine with a modern style like Liu Yu. He is not only a dancer, but also a testament to the smooth combination of classical culture and global trends.

Liu Yu's journey to the top is a story of determination, perseverance and an undying love for the art of dance.

Sáng Tạo Doanh – A golden launch pad for a star

In 2021, the program Sáng Tạo Doanh returns under the organization of Dang Tan, gathering up to 90 contestants from many different countries and entertainment companies. This is one of the most fierce playgrounds, where each round witnesses fierce elimination.

Right from the first episodes, Liu Yu stood out. With his elegant face, classical temperament, and graceful dances, he quickly conquered the audience. Not only beautiful in form, Liu Yu's performance also clearly demonstrated a solid technical foundation after many years of training in traditional Chinese dance.

His most explosive moment was the battle with Santa – a famous Japanese dancer. Two contrasting styles, one classical – one modern, but when combined on stage, created an “earthquake”. Each coordinated move, each rhythmic movement as if it had been choreographed in advance, left both the judges and the audience in awe.

This performance immediately became a "legend" of the show. Fans immediately "shipped" the couple with the name Hao Da Vu, and the number of fans of both increased exponentially.

Support from senior Cuc Tinh Y

Not only did he stand out in Sáng Tạo Doanh, Lưu Vũ was previously a famous TikToker with over 18 million followers. His traditional dance videos exude artistic beauty while being close to young people, creating an interesting bridge between traditional culture and modern life.

Liu Yu's appeal was further strengthened when he received support from the "4000-year-old beauty" Ju Jingyi. Right before the first episode aired, the female idol sent a congratulatory video, hoping that her junior would shine and get closer to his dream. This encouragement made the online community pay more attention to Liu Yu, considering him the "precious gem" of that year's season.

A solid foundation from childhood

Born on August 24, 2000 in Jing County, Anhui Province, Liu Yu began studying dance at the age of 4. After 16 years of studying traditional dance, he soon became one of the talented young faces, once ranked 26th in the country to enter the Beijing Dance Academy.

However, the path of art is not always paved with roses. Due to injury, he was forced to temporarily stop studying and intended to study at the Communication University of China. But his passion for art kept him, leading him to the turning points later.

Since 2018, Liu Yu began to make a splash when appearing in many programs such as "Happy Camp", "Tuoi Tre Trung Quoc", "The Neighborhood Poetry"... Also during this period, he released solo music products. Notably, he also ventured into acting with the role of So Ky Tien in the TV series Duyen Phan Thao Duoc (2020).

Champion of Sáng Tạo Doanh and career with INTO1

2021 marked the biggest turning point: Liu Yu participated in Produce Camp 2021 and always maintained a high ranking. In the final night, he won the number 1 position with more than 25 million votes, becoming the center of INTO1 - an international group of 11 members. Not only was he the center, he was also voted as the leader, proving his charisma and leadership ability.

After his debut, Liu Yu continued to achieve success. His music releases showed that he was not only limited to the image of a traditional dancer, but also affirmed himself as a well-rounded artist – able to sing, compose and perform.

Symbol of cultural exchange

What makes Liu Yu so attractive is not only his excellent skills, but also his image of blending tradition and modernity. On stage, he can captivate people with ancient dance, but then explode with pop, rap or EDM music. It is this fusion that makes Liu Yu a symbol of the young generation of Chinese artists - bringing national identity to the world, while integrating with the global flow.

From a young boy passionate about dancing in Anhui, to a million-view TikToker, to the champion of Sáng Tạo Doanh and leader of INTO1, Liu Yu's journey is a testament to the power of passion and determination. He not only conquered the audience with his talent, but also spread pride in Chinese culture in every dance move.

In the future, with a progressive spirit and a solid artistic foundation, Luu Vu promises to go further, becoming one of Asia's representative artists, bringing his name and image to the world.

The scandal of Hung Huynh copying costumes

On the social network Weibo recently, the topic "Liu Yu's appearance was copied by Vietnamese artists" suddenly entered the top search, attracting more than 12 million views and 10,000 discussions. The focus of criticism was on singer Gemini Hung Huynh, who was suspected of copying Liu Yu's appearance.

Many Chinese audiences believe that the outfit Liu Yu wore was designed specifically to promote traditional Chinese culture, and therefore is not suitable for other artists to use casually. At a recent fan meeting, Gemini Hung Huynh wore a Hanfu that was almost identical in style to Liu Yu.

Not stopping there, during the performance, the male singer also took off his shirt to show off his muscles, causing Chinese fans to think that this action was disrespectful and lost the solemnity of traditional costumes. On both Vietnamese and Chinese social networks, Gemini Hung Huynh received many harsh comments, some even said that the incident seriously affected the image of Vietnamese artists in the international arena.
