"After 3 seasons of Doll Show, I have dreamed of a bigger dream with Doll Fest. No matter what age, the soul of a child always reigns in our minds. I have cherished interesting stories about such a world and wish to sketch it in the series of a thousand and one interesting things about dolls," Ms. Phuong Ho shared.
