TikToker Le Thuy called for help at midnight while studying abroad in Japan.

"Everything is broken, the lights are not on. Why is being an adult so hard? You never told me it was so hard. Why is living alone so hard?", Le Thuy's lament and sobbing in the video moved many people.

Just a few hours after posting, her video attracted more than 1.7 million views and more than 2,000 comments. Most of her followers expressed sympathy and concern for the 25-year-old girl - who was known for her cheerful, energetic image and always spreading laughter.

One viewer commented: "Actually, the lamp not working is not the problem, the problem is that she has suffered too much without being able to say it. The broken lamp is just the last straw." Many others also sent words of encouragement: "Seeing you cry makes me feel so sorry, keep trying," or "It's true that being an adult is hard. Sometimes just a small thing can break you."

Exactly one year ago, on October 4, Le Thuy excitedly announced on her personal page: "Officially became a Japanese international student. Thank you everyone for loving and supporting a boring and lazy person like me." At that time, she shared her goal of learning Japanese in 1.5 years, while maintaining content creation to stay connected with fans.

Since arriving in Japan, Le Thuy has regularly posted clips documenting her journey abroad: from cycling for more than 3 hours after her part-time job, walking alone, to simple meals in a small room. These videos not only reflect everyday life but also contain the effort and struggle to overcome loneliness in a foreign land.

However, fans – those who have followed her for a long time – all understand that behind the bright smile is a sensitive soul. The life of an international student, although full of valuable experiences, is also full of challenges. From language barriers, cultural differences to the feeling of being lost in a strange city – all seem to have accumulated in Le Thuy, so that just a light bulb going out is enough to make her burst into tears.

Le Thuy's real name is Thuy Le, born in 2000, and became famous on social media in 2021 with the viral phrase "Do you want some coconut?". Her naturalness, wit, and positive energy quickly attracted millions of followers in a short time.

Before becoming famous, she attended university but dropped out after a year because she felt it was not suitable. After that, she switched to online clothing business and achieved certain success. When her name became widely known, Le Thuy became an influencer loved by many brands, participating in many events for young people.

However, behind that halo, Le Thuy, like many other young people, is still a girl struggling with the pressure of growing up, the loneliness of living far from home, and emotional gaps that social networks cannot fill.

The moment Le Thuy burst into tears may have surprised many people, but it is also a reflection of many young people today, who always appear strong and always smile online, but are filled with fatigue inside. Because "being an adult" is not just about making a living, but also about learning to stand up after times of wanting to give up, learning to endure the silence when you don't know who to share with.
