"It is such an honor for me to perform at Asia Song Festival the second time," said Tuong. She said one of her new songs would be performed at the festival next month. Last year, she sang her hit "If" in Vietnamese, Korean and English.

Tuong achieved fame soon after her first releases in 2014. She has worked with Universal Music Singapore on producing her songs.

Asia Song Festival is an annual event organized by South Korea's Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism since 2004 to promote exchanges among Asian countries.

Before Tuong, Vietnamese singer Ho Quynh Huong had performed twice at the renowned music festival in 2006 and 2008, not in consecutive years.
