Chien, a second-year student of the School of Foreign Languages, Tra Vinh University, loved watching magic shows on TV since he was a child. At the age of fifteen, he started some simple magical performances such as making a piece of paper disappear and changing paper into money. The first audience for his successful performances was his high school classmates. On March 29^th 2018 at the English Speaking Club, he again impressed his audience with his magical performance. Since then, the SFL has welcomed one more talented student in a completely new form of entertainment.

His study at TVU has been a new journey for this 20- year- old man from Cau Ngang district. He has led his life far away from his family for the first time. His passion about magical performances has never stopped. He has usually wanted to entertain himself and makes his friends happier during stressful academic work.

On March, 29^th, he proved his talent by setting his hands on fire, changing paper into money and changing his T-shirt in a second. Many participants were really excited about his performances. Kim Thanh Ngan, a senior of SLF, has worked with him for a month in an ESC group, but she never realizes he can perform magic. “He makes me really admire him”, she said.

According to this non-professional magician, most of his performances were copied from the video clips on YouTube or reality shows without any training. Therefore, he may hurt himself anytime during his performance. He once nearly cut his tongue when he was trying to swallow a razor blade.

“I love magic, but it is not my primary care or money earning tool. I perform magic as I want to discover and learn the magic tricks. Besides, I like making people around me happy”, he said.
