Tung Mini: The champion surpassed SooBin but caused the most regret, now?

Tung Mini is a name that used to attract strong attention when he won the Champion at the Vietnam Star contest in 2014 but has now withdrawn from showbiz. His current life surprised many people but also received support from the audience.

In 2014, the program Vietnamese Star created a fever in the Vietnamese entertainment industry when looking for new musical talents, and at the same time brought the audience promising young faces.

Vietnamese Star 2014 is not only a simple music contest, but also the starting place for the careers of many famous artists today. Soobin Hoang Son, Suni Ha Linh, Kay Tran, and Erik are all names that have made their mark in Vietnamese music. However, Tung Mini was the winner, a surprise victory when he surpassed prominent names such as Soobin (at that time also took the stage name Soobin Hoang Son) and Suni Ha Linh to win the Champion.

Tung Mini, whose real name is Le Thanh Tung, is one of the names that has attracted strong attention in the Vietnamese entertainment industry. Born in 1994 and from Hanoi, Tung Mini affirmed his musical talent when he was crowned in the Vietnamese Star contest in 2014.

With the victory at the Vietnamese Star, Tung Mini made a strong impression and was well received by the public. After being crowned, Tung Mini was sent to Korea to train and produce music products, hoping to continue to enter the professional music market. However, instead of continuing to pursue the showbiz path, he decided not to sign a 7-year contract with the management company, marking a major change in his career.

After that, he faced a number of personal crises, in terms of family and work. In addition, Tung Mini also had to spend time to revive the company in the business field, as well as overcome the mental shock.

With no regrets about the past time, Tung Mini affirmed that age is not a barrier in his music career. The guy shared: 'I still have a lot to explore and conquer'.

In 2018, he released the song 'Hate you but I miss you', a passionate product of Tung Mini and the producer of Rainbow Bridge company, inspired by his own love story, further affirming the young male singer's songwriting talent and musical maturity.

The MV is made by 100% Korean crew, with fresh, modern colors and a catchy youthful melody, which Tung Mini expects to initially attract the attention of the audience, and affirm his determination to return to music.

Sharing about his future plans, Tung Mini said that he will continue to make efforts to bring more quality music products to the audience.

However, instead of continuing to pursue music, Tung Mini decided to focus on business. He is currently the owner of a chain of Korean barbecue restaurants in Hanoi, famous for its grilled seafood model. In addition, Tung Mini also holds the role of CEO at an architecture company, implementing large villa and hotel construction projects in Vietnam.

With great expectations from the public, Tung Mini surprised many people when he "disappeared" from the entertainment industry after winning at the Vietnamese Star. According to Tung Mini, he participated in the program "just for fun" and mainly wanted to cheer on his best friend Soobin. After winning, he did not feel in line with the directions of the entertainment industry and decided to stop.

His current life surprises many people but also receives support. Many viewers think that, although Tung Mini does not continue to be active in the entertainment industry, he has achieved success and stability in life, especially when he has built a happy family and has a son.

"I still remember Tung Mini singing the song "First Love Letter" very well that year. But what do you do when you get rich and enter showbiz? The photo itself is also going to the contest for fun, not greedy," user N.H commented.

Although Tung Mini has retired from showbiz, every time he recalls the 2014 Vietnam Star contest, the audience still remembers him with regretful feelings. Especially in the context that many other contestants such as Suni Ha Linh have participated in the program Beautiful Sister Pedaling the Wind and Turning the Waves 2024 in China, the name Tung Mini is once again mentioned as an "unfortunate champion" of Vietnamese music.

However, even though he no longer appears much in showbiz activities, Tung Mini still retains the love of the audience, who always remember him through songs such as "The First Love Letter", as well as the image of a talented champion who chooses a different path for himself.

Looking back at Tung Mini's journey, it can be seen that he is a testament to the fact that every artist can choose their own path, whether in showbiz or in real life, as long as they are happy and successful with that choice.
