Have you heard of a bride kidnapping and exes getting back together in the northern part of Vietnam?
Moc Chau love market was established during the independence day of Vietnam on September 2nd. On this occasion, all Hmong people regardless of age, gender, and status, gather downtown to celebrate this big event. Girls dress nicely in traditional clothes, wearing beautiful jewelry, and often go with groups, men play khèn, which is a traditional instrument in Vietnam to attract girls. People come here not only to enjoy the festival but also to meet and fall in love here. For people who couldn’t be together for many reasons, It’s also a time for them to meet each other again. However, I’ve asked some locals, who said this is inappropriate now because it’s considered cheating. Let's explore more!

Hi Van, I really appreciated the more educated take on the Hmong traditions. My partner is a Vietnamese Hmong from the north, and I am closely engaged with many people from the northern Hmong communities, who have in the past received a lot of negative judgment from the Kinh people. They can often be looked at as less due to their perceived outdated backward ways and rougher lifestyle, but there's obviously a lot more to their culture, so it's nice that you touched on this a little in your video. You filmed it very respectfully, which was great to see.
I really enjoyed this video and loved the part near the end when you were speaking with the older gentleman and his modern perspective on the love market. Thanks so much for sharing your channel on TH-cam.
It is good to see you posting content again.
Great video Van Vu!!! I appreciate you delving into a seemingly outdated practice to get to the roots of the tradition! Also, you look so beautiful in those Hmong clothes! 😍
Awesome video love your content!
Very colorful and rich culture. Beautiful video.
This was interesting. I learned something new. Yes show more of this please.
Amazing video by Ms. Van Vu. As usual always educational and opens our eyes to different cultures.
Thank you so much!
Awesome video 🔥🔥
This is very interesting. This is why I turn into your channel, because it is the best.
Your videos are amazing, I'm happy to learn so much about Vietnamese culture. I'm definitely gonna have to visit because your videos, but without asking to bride kidnap anyone because that'd be awkward.
There is a documentary about similar tradition in Central Asian countries. Didn't knew it is also followed in VN. Informative video. Thanks.
Ty for covering traditional Vietnamese instruments. Please cover more traditional Vietnamese music!
Amazing, thanks 👍
A great adventure video, remembering my time in the Sapa region and the border with China.
The beautiful indigenous people are very shy and uncomfortable with their pictures being taken. I love that place and I could live out my life there.
Thank you for sharing your pictures.
9:58 Thank you for the video I learned so much about Hmong culture. I have a Vietnamese coworker. She's told me a little about this but i've learned so much more from your video.
Good video, very informative. I think I missed a couple of Videos before this one. I'll have to catch up.
Hi Van, It's a very interesting video. I learned a lot about Hmong culture and Vietnam. Ty.
New culture. New haircut. New style of video. Gotta love it!
I have learned a lot from your videos
Love to see your new videos
Love your videos ❤️❤️
WOW, learned something new again here. Thank you. Mind boggling. You look great in those traditional clothes. I had to laugh when you told that man you're from Philippines. When I hear about Asia, I always think first of China, Vietnam and the Philippines.
haha this was a funny video, especially the part where the guys tried to "kidnap" you
Thanks for sharing!
I have that insurance for my upcoming trip. Happy to see new video
Hi Beautiful, long time no see, nice to see you again, thanks for sharing the video.
Love watching videos like these. I learned a lot and I am very interested to interact with these locals once I visit Vietnam. If you can do more videos like these would be great if you can go to the Northern areas where their village is thanks and keep doing what you’re doing. By the way you look great in that Hmong attite and I laugh when you mentioned my country Philippines 😂.
Woww this video 📹 was very interesting and incredible!!Congrats 🎊!
I feel in Vietnam 🇻🇳 I learn a different thing every day! Right now I start to read a book 📙 about the Vietnam' history and culture.
The last weekend we went by motorbike 🛵 to Ninh Binh, oh my God 😀, it's a beautiful and lovely place with a lot of history!
Very interesting video
Van looks gorgeous in ethnic dress, I hope she doesn't get swarmed. Gruff Clint Eastwood couldn't resist H'mong cuisine, he said it was better than beef jerky. Gran Torino may be the best film he's ever directed.
A street gang attempt to recruit Clint's neighbour's kid into their ranks. A fight breaks out and Clint show up with his shotgun and tells the street gang to get off his lawn. After that his neighbourhood treats him like a diety: th-cam.com/video/s4MLZ4WsXc4/w-d-xo.html

Vân càng ngày càng đẹp! chúc kênh của em phát triển.

I am hmong American thanks for your videos sharing to the global community
Many of the Hmong live here in NC. Van in Traditional clothes , nice. Thanks for another great video.
Thanks for watching!
Great story and I am so happy that you were not kidnapped by anyone :)
Hi Van, you look adorable in that traditional dress.
Although I am Vietnamese and I know about this old tradition and other contents relating to Vietnamese culture, I really enjoy watching this kind of video in English and, moreover, they are created by chị Vân😅❤❤
Hi Van Vu..., "Love Market" "Want to get married ?" Only kidding... * As I learn new cultures in foreign countries..., this one... caught me by surprise ! * Van Vu ..., you are bright, intelligent, and attractive... Living in Vietnam and on a ( working cattle ranch ) in America..., would undoubtedly be different... * Although..., when I pass away..., you would be..., one very ( rich ) and a beautiful young lady in Vietnam and or the United States... * Excellent video and very informative, and thank you for sharing the video... I do ( love ) your Vietnamese culture and traditions, and your parents... * "Yes..., you are bright, intelligent and attractive... Mike in Montana :)
Vietnam culture is so interesting and peaceful. I hope to meet you again in future
I remember we also got this tradition somewhere in China for a particular ethnics. I'm surprised by the "sold to China" scenario. If it's true, I feel very sorry for that. I'm Chinese and I met two excellent Vietnamese students here in Shanghai. They are from decent family and got scholarship, richer than me.. That's my only impression to Vietnamese.
Really! A đi Mộc Châu mà a ko thấy cái chợ này haha. Anyway, nice video Van!
Hi van. Im your fan..... from the Philippunes.. :-), i live and work now here in Da Nang.
Nice sharing! 👍
Thanks ^^
I love your H’mong attire!!
Van Thank You for sharing this interesting video. You look gorgeous in the ethnic dress👍🏻
My pleasure. Thanks for your support!
@@WhatThePho It’s my pleasure.
Very interesting
Nice video
Van you look absolutely stunning in that Hmong tradition dress. I would love to go here and see if anyone wants to kidnap me cause my dad thinks I'm too western and no one from Vietnam would want me 🥺
hi ms. Van long time since your last videos .
In the future, please pronounce H'Mong as Mong (H is silent). As a Hmong person from the US, I also agree that this "tradition" needs to stop. This "tradition" is unacceptable in the US and should be treated the same in any other countries. On another note, you look beautiful in Hmong clothes. Keep up the great videos!
Thank you for your feedback! I really appreciate it!!
@@WhatThePho I realize you only call them Ho Mong in English, in Vietnamese, you still call them Mong.

Love it, Van looks pretty in Hmong outfit ... to get out of poverty they should graduated from college, get a good paying job then think about family ... normal people we still have 60+ years after college to go so family should not be rush ...
📸🙋🙋Hello van awesome video🙋🙋📸❤️❤️Enjoy your weekend❤️❤️👍😇😇👍😇Keep safe😇😇
Hi, I can spend more time to see all activities in Moc Chau, 30 or 45 minutes is great. Hope you do it in next video...
" Love market "vlog is very nice... Something different... Thanks
...from james mascarehnas, India
Great💐
We built Las Vegas so everybody can go there to elope.... its kind of the custom here in the U.S.... Beautiful video... you've found your calling... :)
Beautiful H'Mong dress 😍, lucky Pho didn't get kidnapped in the ❤️ market place, probably because Go Pro 11 was videoing the two guys who approached her.
That was lucky for all of Pho's besotted subscribers 💕.
Tóc rất đẹp và cá tính 👍👍👍
She is so pretty
Interesting. I live in Fresno, California, home to one of the largest Hmong populations in the United States. Bride kidnapping isn't a thing here, as far as I know, but I'm on the outside looking in, so to speak. Their New Year's celebrations last a week and the food is great. Gimme some more of those dumplings, with some moc chau to wash it down! Yum!
Of course it’s not a thing here in the US. That’s considered abducting and are grounds for imprisonment.
@@shinyeee1709 There's plenty of things considered illegal in the US that still happen, especially culturally, like female circumcision. When you have the cultural and language barrier to hide behind it makes it easier for these things to still happen.
Video hay hơn em tưởng tượng nhiều luôn á 👍👍
This bride stealing thing is almost the same as in Romania(East Europe). Bride is stolen here during the wedding(and she comes back of course). But the tradition was abit different before(more similar to Vietnam it seems).
Amazing video, you look beautiful in that Hmong traditional dress, did any Hmong men tried to kidnap you during the making of this video? lolz.
Oh I love to wear that dress
nice
Hi how are you doing great job i like the channel.
Great video, very interesting! What is that purple xoi called at 4.32?
Xôi nếp cẩm maybe
Van you make the cutest little bride kidnapee. I would steal you away and never bring you back. You look like a little doll. I really do want to come visit there very soon and there isn't much keeping me away.
Maybe I'm just biased because I listen to English all day at work, but you sound cuter when you interview people in Vietnamese.
Hi..
Iam last month in veitnaam hanoi
Very good experience we all friend
Love ho chi minh city
it also happens in the southernmost of the Philippines.
love from oman
i can tell you realllllly wanted a good interesting answer when you were like "where did you meet?" and they were like "oh we met on facebook" LOL
Take a moment to see how your captioned words are displayed ❤
This should be front page on Vietnam official tourism website
I do have a suggestion for you. Your subtitles are too long. If you try to watch some foreign films that have subtitles, they usually make it short enough so the viewers have enough time to read.
Wow 137K subscribers already, imagine what a great vlog can boost your popularity...you are better off taking off from Mộc châu otherwise beware of getting kidnapping by your admirers, BTW, look behind you my Dear!😝
Thank you!!
It didn't seem like the people you talked to wanted to defend bride stealing. Maybe because it's been in the news? Or because the government doesn't like it? Anyway, very interesting video!
I love the simplicity of your culture.I think it would be better if we just respect are old tradition .Any were we are
So true!!
I watched a documentary about their tribe. That documentary stated that it's not actually kidnapping. The girl resist to show how much they don't want to leave the family.
hi my gitl friend loves the dress you wore.she always gets me to ware clothing that locals ware too .we are travelling north vietnam in october and would like to know where the stall was you buy it from so she can buy one.and if there are other places that she can dress up could you let me know so i can add them to our list of things to do .we go hanoi ca ca bay sapa and Bac ha markets we have 2 weeks to fill
You were almost kidnapped, I think the camera saved you.
By the way the color is so bright and beautiful!!! Every girl regardless look like a flower..
He was just joking. He did keep distance and not touch her.
Ma'am, I would have picked you up and ran harder than a black Friday, laughing wildly to my car! Such an incredible tradition and very interesting. Of course, definitely terrible to hear folks taking "back" to the old ways to the point of human trafficking. Boys, no means no!
Good morning Van, you look so beautiful
Good morning. Have a great weekend!
Good day to you, Van.
This video is so interesting, never before been told by anyone that there is bride kidnapping practice in Hmong culture. Though this practise is no longer practical, it's nice to see the Hmong people are a very closely knit community, thus this will enable them to preserve most of their traditions,.
You did well to do a lot of research for facts. Keep it up.
Em mặc bộ này Đẹp quá em ơi ! Dễ thương quá à !!!
I wonder how things would turn out if a foreigner falls in love there and goes for a bride kidnapping, assuming that the guy is seriously in love would it still pass or it would be risky?😅
Its funny that you told them that you are a Filipino. Thanks for having it in your subconcious. You would pass for a Filipino.
So cool! They should implement bride kidnapping festivals in the Western countries.
The first cmt 🥰🥰
You're #2 ... I was #1
You look very cute
Hi Van, I have Hmong friends, and their ethnic origin is continuously mispronounced. I've been taught it's just "mong," no emphasize on the H.
Has she always had sponsors in her videos? I don't think I recall seeing any in earlier videos
Like you in our Hmong clothing.....
What do you mean? You said the safety wing is 42 dollars per Month, then you said if you travel 5 or more days, you'll pay a lot less?
Just making sure. Isn't the word hmong pronounced with the silent h? Here in america i hear people say it with the silent h.
Chào cô gái cháu thật xinh đẹp .
Whoa, got a lot of hair cut off! Nice cut, but I will miss your long hair...LOL :).
why not say moc chau?
Dear Van, You are looking very colourful and very special to wearing this colourful costume. I think, if any young man select you as his life partner, what you will do at that time?
