The couple shared the happy news during the musician's live show on the evening of 21/3 in Ha Noi. Sara Luu is currently 10 weeks pregnant with identical twins, following her first twin birth six years ago. The musician expressed happiness and surprise, stating he couldn't believe his wife was pregnant with twins again. He is not afraid to help his wife care for the children, but feels pressure regarding their education costs. His two older children attend international schools, with costs around 400 million VND annually.

During the show, Duong Khac Linh recounted memories from when he first fell in love with his wife. He and Sara Luu's older sister, singer Luu Hien Trinh, had known and collaborated for many years. However, the musician did not know his friend had a younger sister. It wasn't until 2018 that they met on a music game show where he was a judge.
After spending time talking and working together on the show, Sara Luu gradually developed feelings for the musician and began dating him. "I almost gave up because it was so hard to win her over; I guess I was already old back then," he joked. After dating for some time, Duong Khac Linh proposed to his wife, and they married in 6/2019.

Despite a 13-year age difference, they share many common interests, such as travel and dining, which bridges any gap. Knowing his wife enjoys good food, he often searches online for recipes for dishes like Indonesian grilled chicken or Singaporean black pepper crab.
Beyond his love life, the musician also recalled the challenging period when he returned from the Netherlands to establish his career in Vietnam in 2007. At that time, he was not financially well-off and felt discouraged because no one knew him. He asked acquaintances to introduce him to jobs in the express delivery industry, but without success. After translating for musician Duc Tri once, he collaborated with the senior artist on a music project for singer Ho Ngoc Ha. He gradually gained recognition, especially after composing the song "Xin Hay Thu Tha" (Please Forgive Me).

The live show, titled "Linh Cam" (Intuition), represented "Duong Khac Linh's emotions". The musician showcased many works that established his name, such as "Canh Hong Phai" (Fading Rose), "Xin Dung Lang Im" (Please Don't Be Silent), and "Dung Nhu Thoi Quen" (Don't Be a Habit). Performing artists included Ho Ngoc Ha, Noo Phuoc Thinh, Trung Quan Idol, and Luu Hien Trinh.
Duong Khac Linh, 45, studied classical piano for 15 years and graduated from the Utrecht School of the Arts in Hilversum, Netherlands. He has collaborated with many singers, including Hong Nhung, Vy Oanh, Minh Hang, Ha Anh Tuan, and Erik, and served as a judge for shows like Vietnam Idol, The Voice Kids of Vietnam, and The X-Factor.
Sara Luu, whose real name is Luu Ngoc Duyen, 32, graduated from the Vocal Department of the Viet Nam National Academy of Music and studied abroad in South Korea. In recent years, she has reduced her singing activities to focus on family.
