Synopsis

Spoiler shield

"How does it feel to bid farewell to the stage? The joy and sorrow are mixed emotions; there is joy, and there is also sadness. The sadness comes from missing the audience, missing the artistic activities, and missing the Thuy Nga Center and my fellow artists—everyone at the Thuy Nga Center treats me like an uncle or an elder. But on the other hand, when we part ways, I also feel that from here on, my responsibilities have been handed over to someone else. If you happen to see me, you will likely just find me sitting in the audience seats." —Nguyen Ngoc Ngan, PBN 133 backstage video clip Paris By Night 133 - Nguyen Ngoc Ngan - The Farewell is the 143rd Paris By Night program (including special edition programs) produced and released by Thuy Nga Center. This program signals that 2022 is the final year that Nguyen Ngoc Ngan will collaborate with Thuy Nga Center as a master of ceremonies.
