Having followed the first season and been impressed by the artist interactions, the MC expressed his openness to blending and collaborating with diverse musical personalities in the show. He remarked, "I am participating with an open mind, ready to partner with anyone, as each artist brings a unique color."
He will use the stage name Dung DT instead of his familiar nickname "Cu Trong Xoay". According to the MC, the old name was a character he played, and for this show, he wants to fully showcase new aspects of himself.
