Huong Giang has a great passion for acting and the stage.
Besides her dedication to her passion, she rarely attends entertainment gatherings. Huong Giang considers herself an introvert who rarely shares her sorrows. Instead, she prefers to watch movies, read books, or explore self-discovery programs.
“I’m shy and not very good at communicating. I finish my work and go home instead of socializing or appearing in crowds. Even at entertainment parties and events, I rarely attend because I feel out of place and uncomfortable.
In real life, I’m quite timid and easily hurt by what others say, so I tend to retreat. I believe that when it comes to work, one should just do their best and excel in their given roles. As for events and programs, I rarely attend, almost never.”, shared Huong Giang.
She also added: “Some people wonder if I feel envious when I see my peers’ success. To be honest, I don’t because this is the path I’ve chosen.
For decades, I’ve only focused on doing my best, without comparing or competing with anyone. I want to live a happy and relaxed life, free from the pressure and distractions that come with a hectic social life.”
Huong Giang is content and happy with her current life as a single mother.
In her personal life, Huong Giang hasn’t been lucky in love. Up to now, she has been a single mother for over 20 years since her marriage ended. Currently, the actress is happy and content with her peaceful life with her son.
To ensure her son’s healthy development, both physically and mentally, Huong Giang chooses to be his friend rather than imposing her wishes on him. The actress shared: “For me, the most important thing is to understand what my son wants, and I will take the time to talk to him. Except when I’m on set, all my other time is dedicated to my son.”
In a 2023 interview, Huong Giang revealed that “My son has finished college and started working. I’m glad that he is understanding and loving. He has his own opinions, abilities, and doesn’t compete with anyone. That’s enough to make me content and happy.”.
“I have more time to focus on my work, myself, and my son. The price of freedom is loneliness,” Huong Giang confided.
At over 50 years old, the artist is satisfied with her life as a single mother. She confided: “Maybe it’s my destiny to not have found a shoulder to lean on yet. There have been people who wanted to get to know me, but I didn’t feel we were compatible, so it’s better not to make each other miserable. When you look at things simply, life becomes lighter. For me, as long as my family and those around me love me, it’s enough. I live a spiritual life.”
