The political-art programme To Quoc Trong Tim (Homeland in Our Hearts), co-organised by Nhan Dan Newspaper and the Ha Noi People’s Committee at My Dinh Stadium in 2025, was awarded the Devotion insignia at a ceremony held in Ha Noi on April 15.

The vigorous development of the Internet, technology, artificial intelligence, and social media has placed the press before major challenges, whilst simultaneously opening an exciting phase that demands mainstream media to innovate in order to retain readers and audiences.

What makes “To quoc trong tim” (Homeland in our hearts) “unprecedented” lies first and foremost in the way it tells the story of the homerland. Rather than opting for a traditional narrative approach, the film draws on the language of concert performance, cinema and modern music, bringing history, national spirit and patriotism to the public through emotions that are genuine and deeply moving.

In a much-anticipated debut collaboration, powerhouse vocalist Tung Duong and dynamic pop star Toc Tien will share the stage for the first time at the art program “To quoc trong tim” (Homeland in our hearts). The two distinctive voices — Tung Duong’s deep, soulful intensity and Toc Tien’s modern, high-energy style — will come together in a special performance of “Mot vong Viet Nam” (A round of Viet Nam).

The special concert “To quoc trong tim” (Homeland in Our Hearts) not only delivered spectacular performances but also stirred national pride and love for the country among tens of thousands of spectators. All people, from soldiers, veterans, artists and students to entire families, were filled with emotion and left with lasting impressions after enjoying the show.

As the “To quoc trong tim” (Homeland in Our Hearts) concert draws near, the public’s excitement for the performances featured in the programme continues to grow. For many audience members, this is not only an opportunity to share in the patriotic heartbeat, but also a moment to unite under the national flag and raise their voices with the familiar line in the national anthem: “Doan quan Viet Nam di...” (The Vietnamese army marches…).
