The end of the year is upon us, and the festive spirit of Tet is spreading everywhere. Vietnamese artists are also busily engaging in traditional activities such as shopping, making banh chung, celebrating Tet Eve, and spending time with family.
Artist Tu Long, one of the most famous comedians, spent time with his wife and children buying citrus trees to display during Tet. For him, this is a meaningful time to bond with family members and teach his children about cultural traditions. “Tet is a sacred time of reunion, so I always want to guide my children toward the beautiful cultural values of our nation,” he shared.
Traditional Activities During Tet
Making Banh Chung – The Familiar Flavor of Tet
Artist Thu Huong (Huong Tuoi), known for her roles in TV dramas, is also busy preparing the final steps to make banh chung, an indispensable dish for every Vietnamese family during Tet. The artist enjoys cooking and preparing delicious meals for her family.
Tet Eve Rituals – A Sacred Moment
Artist Chiêu Xuân, a veteran actress of Vietnamese cinema, held an early Tet Eve ritual at home. She shared that she loves the warm family atmosphere during these days. Particularly, she remembers the difficult Tets of the 1980s when having a full meal was still a luxury. “I had to borrow rice from neighbors, but everyone supported each other. Despite the hardships, we still managed to eat better than usual,” she recalled emotionally.
Reunions and Sharing During Tet
Friendship on Stage
Artists Xuan Hinh and Thanh Thanh Hien, familiar faces on the comedy stage, enjoyed an intimate afternoon tea session. They are not only colleagues but also close friends who support each other both professionally and personally.
Busy Performing at Year’s End
While many artists choose to spend time with their families, singer Trong Tan is busy with a packed performance schedule. On the 29th of December, he flew to Vung Tau for an event, and on the 3rd of Tet, he will perform in Vinh. Each moment he spends with his audience brings him joy and gratitude.
Conclusion
Tet is more than just a holiday; it is a time for Vietnamese artists to reconnect with their roots, strengthen family bonds, and share joy with friends and colleagues.
