TikToker Ut returns to the garden: GenZ leaves the city for the garden, is likened to "Ly Tu That Viet"

Tran Thi Kim Ut, born in 1999, from a reporter with an open journalism career and a stable income, now "leaving the city to go to the garden", has become the owner of the channel "Ut to the garden" - a familiar name to hundreds of thousands of followers on platforms.

At an age when many people are busy looking for a location in the city, Ut chooses a private path that she herself does not even dare to think about. Ut said that journalism has given her many experiences and lessons, but sometimes she still feels that she has not "burned" herself to the fullest. Once wondering what makes her happy, Ut decided to go back to a place with the smell of earth, wind, gardens and family meals.

That decision was not as romantic as the image on the Internet, the 23-year-old girl had to learn from scratch: gardening, taking care of plants, getting used to the rhythm of early morning to late afternoon, and then managing income with freelance jobs with her brother. But it is the slow pace of life, close to nature that helps Ut "breathe deeper", enjoy the feeling of being with his family, living exactly what he wants.

From accidental vegetable picking clips to million-view videos

Ut's fate to make content began very gently. Once harvesting vegetables, his brother filmed a few videos for Ut. When she looked back, she was surprised by the peaceful beauty right in front of her, something that Ut rarely saw when she was on the street. "Always name the channel 'Ut to the garden' for easy remembering", she said with a smile. The first videos recorded Ut picking vegetables, cooking country meals, making crafts or harvesting fruit in the garden.

The clip of picking cotton at Linh Lake, rowing baskets and cooking fish sauce hotpot helped the channel go viral: more than 2 million views, over 90% of positive feedback. Since then, a series of videos about kitchens, seasonal labor, quiet countryside... are well received by the audience.

Ut calls this a "place to keep the fire" to help her develop herself.

Turning the way to start a business in the countryside – a story that is not pink

She had to learn to shoot, edit videos, master equipment, come up with script ideas every day, and find a way to maintain finances when the channel did not bring income. Fortunately, the previous journalistic environment helped Ut have the foundation: topic thinking, story exploitation, content layout, and pacing.

The family is also a solid back. The home garden is available with vegetables, chickens and ducks; The brother is the one who assists in filming. Ut received a few more freelance projects to cover the first stage. As the channel developed steadily, the number of viewers increased sharply, Ut began to have a promotion contract. Her income improved, creating conditions for her to reinvest in gardens, filming equipment, and expanding content.
