Hoàng Thùy Linh – Bánh Trôi Nước MV REACTION

you can reaction "Nhật kí của mẹ – Hiền Thục" i think you will love it

Hi, this is one of the comments which I think it could help you understand what this mv is about. Thanks for the reaction, really enjoy it.
First of all, thank you for your interests in Vietnamese music. I am so proud of this song and glad to see you like it so much. This song really surprises me although I am a Vietnamese. And so, I really want to explain you the meaning of the song, the culture, and the story behind the song. It is quite difficult to get you into all of those things at the same time but I ll do my best 🙂

Basically, in order to understand this song, I have to explain you two things which are the traditional cake (floating cake) and the original poem writer. So that you can understand the imagination they use for the video. Also, the lyric is a poem. Start to be like a mess hahaha so many things to explain 🙂

1. Floating cake: It is round, and sticky with green beans inside. At the beginning, when you put it in the water, it sinks into water, but will float after boiled.

2. The poem & the writer
Writer: Ho Xuan Huong. She is one of the female writers of Vietnam. Most of her works are about fate of women in the old society which is dependent, and undecidable in their lives. She was always on women's site. "The floating cake" was written in such a period of history.
Poem:
(1) My body is white and softly rounded
(2) Rising and sinking like mountains in streams
(3) Whatever way hands may shape me
(4) At center my heart is red and true

(1) Ho Xuan Huong always appreciates the beauty of women. And so she compares the beauty of women by the image of the floating cake which is perfect shaped, round, and white.
(2) The floating cake is always floating on the water surface after boiled. Quite hard to explain this. But the image of the cake means (like a ball on the water) rising and sinking. This means the difficulties in women's lives which lead them like up and down due to the feudal society where they have to rely on rules, men or whatever and have no right to make any decision.
(3) However, the shape of the floating cakes don't depend on themselves. They don't look perfect by themselves but depend on how people shape them, maybe round, nice, or distorted. Once again, this emphasises that women's lives all rely on how people want they to be.
(4) In conclusion, giving the fact that the society was so complicated and harsh, women will always keep and remain their beauty from inside, kindness, and nice personality. They are always beautiful from inside and outside. This is the important point and a insight of Ho Xuan Huong, a woman in old society where no one was on the site of women and dared to raise their voices.

That is the general meaning of the idea for the the video. Hoang Thuy Linh (singer) plays the role of Ho Xuan Huong in the MV. That is why you see some of the traditional clothes which are also combined with modern styles.copi của ngô huy
