Phu Quy - The 'pet chicken' of the late singer Phi Nhung: From national taekwondo player to bolero prince

Singer Phu Quy grew up from the Solo competition with Bolero and was loved by many audiences.

In 2014, a young man suddenly appeared on the music stage in the form of a model, an actor, singing sweetly in immortal bolero songs. After a few years, Nguyen Phu Qui was able to create a position loved by the audience in the lyrical music genre, which he secretly dreamed of when he was a child but did not think he could do it.

Singer Phu Qui has been known to the audience more since winning the runner-up prize of the Solo contest with bolero and being supported by the late singer Phi Nhung. Phu Quy is loved by the audience and nicknamed "the bolero prince" not only because of being a good duet with senior Phi Nhung but also because of his handsome appearance like a supermodel.

However, not many people know, this guy has a very special life with many ups and downs like movies. From the national taekwondo player, Phu Qui had to retire after a torn ligament. Unexpectedly, this event brought him to the path of art and met singer Phi Nhung.

Taekwondo national player

Phu Qui used to be a national player in taekwondo martial arts, a name that used to scare many people when he went to the ring.

It can be said that Phu Qui was born on the martial arts floor, every day, when I open my eyes, I practice, fight... waiting for the day to go to the ring. All Phu Qui thought at that time was how to defeat the enemy.

Phu Quy has many times achieved high results in international martial arts competitions, including 3 times the Southeast Asian champion in taekwondo LG cup and many other achievement medals. Phu Quy is so famous in the taekwondo world that, mentioning his name in that weight class is... people are scared, don't dare to fight.

However, when his career was on the rise, suddenly, in the match to compete for the place to attend the Seagame, Phu Qui was injured and broke his knee ligament.

Twice on the operating table is a painful memory, but the biggest pain of this player was when he received the decision paper of the national team and returned it to the province because he was no longer able to contribute as before.

Although knowing that a player's life must take risks, this is too big a shock for a 16- or 17-year-old young man like Phu Qui.

Recalling this event, Phu Qui could not hide her tears when sharing in the program Where is Happiness. He shared: "I was forced to give up my martial arts career. I was very sad. My career was lost. How many days of training and building a name in that martial art suddenly disappeared.

In my life, I cried the most when I received that decision. I cried a lot, planning to go back to my hometown to raise ducks, help my parents in farming and gardening. It's a pain I'll never forget."

However, compared to many seniors who went before, Phu Qui is fortunate to have no defects in her legs. Because there are people, because of the unsuccessful ligament surgery, they cannot walk normally again, or worse, there are people who have to have their legs amputated.

Phu Qui can still walk, only her legs can't stand, she can't practice with the same intensity as before. He said: "At that time, if I was about 7 days late, I would also lose my lower leg. Because at that time, I broke my ligament without knowing it, still walking back and forth, until the cartilage broke. The knee was swollen. on a very large lump. Fortunately, it was discovered and saved."

Sticking to the market because of Phi Nhung's favor

In those sad days, Phu Qui hummed and sang. His sister is a singer - Miss Kim Thoa realized her brother's talent, so she brought him to Ho Chi Minh City to study vocals.

In 2014, Phu Quy participated in the Solo competition with bolero and excelled in the final round, reaching the runner-up position. After the contest, he was supported by the late singer Phi Nhung and invited to join the company. At that time, Phi Nhung had not yet adopted Ho Van Cuong.

Being facilitated by seniors, led to sing, Phu Qui is extremely happy. He is loved by the audience through his passionate duets with singer Phi Nhung, but this has led to many rumors of love between the two.

Before the bad rumors, Phu Qui once explained: "We do not call Phi Nhung's company a company, but often call it Phi Nhung's Ganh singing or Phi Nhung's extended family, Phi Nhung's dance and music troupe.

Because of the favor and help of Phi Nhung, I got involved in many love rumors with her. I was under a lot of pressure at that time. I heard a lot of rumors about me and Phi Nhung. Even my Facebook page was hit by a storm, when many people came in to ask.

I was also scolded by many people, saying that I was not worthy of Phi Nhung, while I did not know anything. Many anti-fans came to curse me, making me very sad. I just know that at that time, being able to sing a duet with Phi Nhung was extremely proud.

Then over time, I got used to it, so I just focused on how to sing as well as possible, bring my work to the public, and don't care about rumors anymore.

When the contract expired, I did not renew because I wanted to freely develop my career. At this time, when I did not appear much with Phi Nhung anymore, they were rumored to have a dispute. Actually it's not".

Phu Qui also said that the person he idolized and respected in his profession was the late singer Phi Nhung. He confided: "Ms. Phi Nhung is a sister, a teacher who taught me a lot. She shares her knowledge and experience in the singing profession. Without Phi Nhung, I still don't understand anything until now. much about bolero.

Normally, every song I sing is criticized, but when I sing "Who gives me love", the audience cries. Maybe because at that time, I was having problems with love. From there, I understood, I have to sing my emotions so that listeners can absorb each word and every word."
