Heart-warming moments of elderly Vietnamese couple
It is said that love is not a matter of counting the years but making the years count. This has been proved by touching moments of an elderly couple in Hoi An.
Le Van Se, 96-year-old man lives in Hoi An, Quang Nam Province. He fell in love with his wife Nguyen Thi Loi in their 30s and got married 10 years later, before he joined the army to fight for the nation. Taken prisoner after skirmish, he finally returned home in 1954 to reunite with his anxious, but patient wife.

Increasing numbers of tourists to Hoi An are making a detour to visit the exemplary couple as images of their undying affection spread online.
