Singer Erik faces criticism over discipline on ‘Sao Nhap Ngu’
Vietnamese singer Erik, born Le Trung Thanh, has faced public scrutiny following his appearance on the reality program ‘Sao Nhap Ngu’. Viewers have criticized his perceived lack of discipline and difficulty adapting to military regulations.
Specific points of contention include his hesitation to cut his hair due to upcoming artistic projects, his perceived lack of interaction with teammates, and instances of tardiness during morning drills and lunch gatherings. Additionally, he was noted for bringing personal cosmetic items that were unsuitable for military service. Some audience members have characterized his attitude as ‘fussy’ or ‘unserious’ regarding the strict military environment.
Erik has addressed the controversy on his personal social media, apologizing for his behavior and acknowledging that he has not yet fully adapted to the discipline required. The singer, who rose to fame at age 18 with the hit ‘Sau Tat Ca’, has been a prominent figure in Vpop for over a decade.
