Up to the chapter "Anh trai qua ngan cong gai" on the night of September 7 and 8 in Ho Chi Minh City, Huu Quoc has participated in this concert 9 times, including the recording.

The reason that brought him to this grand show was that the original program had a section that represented the culture of three regions. The North had Cheo art, the Central had Hue singing and the South had Don Ca Tai Tu.

Huu Quoc was invited by the organizers to support Ginger Jam's performance Da Co Hoai Lang .

As a true Cai Luong performer, Huu Quoc is no stranger to Da Co Hoai Lang . He is also a famous veteran actor on the city's Cai Luong stage, so inviting Huu Quoc was reasonable.

With the contribution of Huu Quoc, the performance brought special impressions when Anh trai duong ngan cong gai was brought to audiences in many regions across the country by the organizers.

Confiding in Tuoi Tre Online , Huu Quoc said: "With Da co hoai lang, I felt emotional while filming, but when I got to perform outdoors with tens of thousands of spectators, the feeling of happiness was indescribable.

There were parts where I got goosebumps when Bang Kieu sang vọng cổ, the confessional lines, in the chorus the audience had watched on TV before and knew the lyrics so they sang along, cried with the character on stage.
