Roni Trần Bình Trọng is a Finnish singer of Vietnamese ancestry who rose to popularity after placing sixth in Idols Finland 2, the Finnish version of Pop Idol. He was born in a refugee camp in Thailand, but went to Finland at the age of four months,[1] and has lived most of his life in Hyvinkää, Finland[citation needed].
His debut single "Don't wanna be alone" was a radio hit in Finland, and the music video had similar success.[citation needed]
In 2006 he was invited to perform on "Paris by Night 84:Passport to Music and Fashion", a Vietnamese entertainment show. Roni's Vietnamese fanbase exploded instantly after he wowed audiences on the show, where he performed "Call Me", as Paris by Night is watched by millions of Vietnamese across the globe. Due to his popularity after performing on Paris By Night 84, he was invited back for Paris By Night 87: Talent Show - Finals.[citation needed]
Roni is signed to Sony Records.[citation needed]
In 2007, Roni was invited to star in a Finnish musical performance of the lead role in "The Snowman". The musical premiered November '07.[citation needed]
