Hoàng Thùy Linh musical comeback and recognition

Overview

Vietnamese singer Hoàng Thùy Linh recently released the music video ‘Thầy Dùi’, her first comeback in four years. The project, a collaboration with songwriter Khắc Hưng and fashion director Hoàng Ku, blends contemporary music with Vietnamese cultural elements.

The release initially drew mixed reactions; while some fans praised the fusion of folk and modern sounds, others criticized the use of AI and cluttered imagery. Furthermore, the Swiss brand Omar Amor accused stylist Hoàng Ku of plagiarism regarding a specific earphone-themed crop top used in the video.

Despite these controversies, Hoàng Thùy Linh was named the Cultural Artistry Icon at the L'OFFICIEL Beauty Choice Awards 2026. The award recognizes her artistic contributions and her use of cultural elements in her music, coinciding with the seventh anniversary of her album, HOÀNG.
