The song "Writing the continuation of the peace story" by musician Nguyen Van Chung is becoming a rare musical phenomenon, reaching more than 3.1 billion views on social media platforms such as TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Facebook and Instagram during the April 30 holiday.

The song also continuously appears in major art programs celebrating national holidays, affirming its vitality and widespread value in the community.

The song "Continue the story of peace" reached 3.1 billion views on platforms.

The song has a heroic melody and lyrics, recalling the history of building and defending the country, paying tribute to the generations of ancestors who sacrificed for peace, and arousing national pride in each listener. Many listeners mistakenly believe that the author of the song is a veteran musician, even thinking that only people living in that historical period could have composed such an inspiring song.

Under the videos using this background music, “half-crying, half-laughing” comments confusing the musician’s age continuously appear. Audiences call Nguyen Van Chung by titles such as “old musician”, “veteran musician”.

Speculation about age even went further, with humorous but completely incorrect comments such as: " Mr. Chung is the same age as my grandfather in 1927, when my grandfather went to fight the French, Mr. Chung had already composed hundreds of songs" or "Thank you, Mr. Chung, for composing such a great song. At that time, you must have experienced all the pain of war..." . The peak of the confusion was that many people sent their thanks to "the late musician Nguyen Van Chung" for leaving behind this touching song.

Faced with these mistakes, musician Nguyen Van Chung was not upset but showed his humor and charm. He delighted netizens with his witty "corrections" in the comments section, confirming that he was... still alive and still active in the arts: "I invite you to listen to music with me", "Spend my whole life correcting that I am still alive", or "I can't go to the altar yet !"...

This clever and humorous response further spread the story and created a lot of laughter.

In fact, musician Nguyen Van Chung was born in 1982. He started composing in 2002, when he was still a student, and quickly became a familiar name to the 8X and 9X generations with a series of famous ballads such as Warm Wind Scarf, Crying Moon, Love Moon Night, Rose House, Mother's Diary... and hundreds of beloved children's songs.

In a recent post, he said he created the TikTok channel not only to share new songs, but also to let the audience recognize "old acquaintances" - the people behind the songs that were associated with their youth, helping them realize that the composer of songs about 15-20 years ago is still a young and vibrant musician today.

Although the misunderstanding story caused a stir, it cannot be denied that it was also an "unintended effect" that contributed to bringing Nguyen Van Chung's name back strongly in the music market.
