(S)Trong - Rise Up Tour 2025
With the "Rise Up" tour, the German-Vietnamese Trong Hieu alias (S)TRONG celebrates his rise to pop stardom and his motto "You have to believe in yourself, then you can do anything". His rousing K-pop and V-pop show with professional dance elements was also a great success in Germany on his last tour. In 2025, the energetic singer will return to five German cities with "Rise Up".
His career is a storybook tale. Thanks to hard work, perseverance and luck, (S)TRONG is now where he is. Born in 1992 as the child of Vietnamese immigrants in Bad Kissingen, TRONG Hieu spent the first 7 years of his life in an asylum shelter. He discovered his passion and talent for singing and dancing at an early age and, with the support of his family, he single-mindedly pursued his dream of performing on big stages.
He became a superstar in Vietnam overnight when he won Vietnam Idol as "German Hotboy" in 2015. Since then, he has been on Vietnamese TV, has big advertising deals and plays shows with 30,000 fans. His social media follower numbers are in the millions.
In 2023, he managed to take part in the German preliminary round of the Eurovision Song Contest. He reaches 4th place with the single "Dare To Be Different". A first tour in Germany in spring 2024 with a.s.s. concerts follows.
His polished look, his award-winning choreography - he was German and European Dance4Fans champion several times - and his encouraging songs mesh perfectly and inspire not only K-pop fans. In his music, he stands up for tolerance and equality, making him a perfect role model for young fans.
His latest single "Rise Up Underdog" in anime style, musically harder, with chanting elements and even more oriented towards K-pop looks, once again summarizes his story of empowerment.
