Trong Hieu Nguyen (Vietnamese: Nguyễn Trọng Hiếu; born 4 July 1992), known professionally as Trong Hieu or simply Trong (stylised in all caps), is a German singer and dancer of Vietnamese descent. He is known for winning the sixth season of Vietnam Idol in 2015.[4]

Early life and education

Nguyen was born on 4 July 1992 in Bad Kissingen, Bavaria to Vietnamese parents who emigrated to Germany in 1991.[5][6] He started dancing at the age of eight.[7] After graduating from the Jack-Steinberger-Gymnasium in Bad Kissingen in 2011, he studied singing at the Music College Hannover in Hannover.[5][8] He has cited Bruno Mars as one of his main artistic influences.[1]

Career

In 2008, Nguyen was a participant in the fifth season of Deutschland sucht den Superstar, the German version of the Idol franchise.[9] He made it to the top twenty-five, but was eliminated before the live shows.[9] In 2014, he applied for Unser Song für Österreich, the German national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2015, but was not among the artists selected to compete.[1][10]

While on vacation in Vietnam in April 2015, Nguyen decided to audition for the sixth season of Vietnam Idol.[6][11] He went on to win the competition, receiving 71.5 per cent of the public vote in the final.[6] He subsequently released the winner's single "Con đường tôi", which was also released in German as "Wie ich bin".[12]

In 2020, Nguyen represented Vietnam at the Asia Song Festival.[13] On 27 January 2023, he was announced as one of the participants in Unser Lied für Liverpool, the German national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.[14] His entry "Dare to Be Different" was co-written with Norwegian singer-songwriter Elsie Bay and Dutch songwriters Sasha Rangas and Stefan van Leijsen.[15] At Unser Lied für Liverpool, the song finished fourth out of eight entries with 71 points.[16]
