“Forgotten Things in the Corner” on Instagram is the brainchild of Nguyen Thi Thu Nguyen (20 years old), currently a student at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities (Ho Chi Minh City National University).
From Instagram to books
Sharing about the opportunity to create an Instagram channel, Thuy Nguyen said that writing brings her joy:
“After taking the university entrance exam, it was the pandemic period so I couldn’t go to school yet. In order not to waste time, I started looking for jobs that could be put on my CV later.
Surfing social networks a lot, I’ve noticed that people often mention building a personal brand. “After doing research, I chose Instagram because of the “static” nature of this social network to share and write about my experiences.”
Thuy Nguyen, who started writing after taking the university entrance exams, herself was still “obsessed” with literary works in the 12th grade, as she loved a sentence from the writer Tu Hoi’s work “A Phu and His Wife”:
“I retreat like a turtle cornered” is how Nguyen decided to use the word “corner” as part of the name of her Instagram channel.
Thinking more later, Nguyen expressed “In the Corner” as the dark things inside people, where people throw negative things, unresolved problems and let them be.
“I want to go into dark corners and console myself and the young people who are carrying a lot of sorrow in their hearts. I write about forgotten things because, for me, that damage has not yet healed.. Nguyen expressed confidence
