The program was inspired by the conceptual idea of Tô Văn Lai and Nguyễn Ngọc Ngạn to honor the sacrifice and endurance that Vietnamese women experience being a mother and a wife of the family as well as an ordinary citizen in times of war (Vietnam War) and peace. The program features songs, musicals, as well as skits that poignantly portray the significant role that Vietnamese women holds in all aspects of life throughout the years. From songs such as “Bốn Mắt Anh Yêu” and “Cô Bắc Kì Nho Nhỏ” that lively evoke the teenage pureness & innocence during high school years to more mature songs like “Mười Thương” that describes the softness and inner beauty of the Vietnamese woman. On the other hand, "Mẹ Trùng Dương" and "Mẹ Việt Nam Ơi!" metaphorically compare the woman to the ocean whom protects and gives shelters to the land of Vietnam while "Cô Gái Việt" depicts the social contribution of the women in the society besides family matters.

Several guests were also presented on the show. An introductory speech was presented by Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez, discussing the resilience, strength, care and contributions of the Vietnamese woman in Vietnam and abroad; as well, she wore the traditional Vietnamese dress, an ao dai. Other guests included Swiss philanthropist "Tim" Aline Rebeaud, who runs an orphanage for handicapped and orphaned children in Saigon, named Maison Chance, and others.
