Runner-up Thuy Van lost her belongings in Japan and the unexpected ending
Thuy Van said she once went to Japan and unfortunately lost something, however, just a few hours later she found her wallet to her surprise.
International Runner-up Thuy Van was invited to be a speaker at a talk show.“Talk Japan - Go towards the rising sun”at Ho Chi Minh City Book Street. The talk show also had the participation of other guest speakers such as: Dr. Nguyen Vu Ky - Lecturer of Japanese Studies at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities; Educational researcher, author, translator, former student studying in Japan - Nguyen Quoc Vuong.
Despite the rain, the talk show still attracted the participation and interaction of many audiences of different ages. Thuy Van wore Japanese-style makeup and traditional Yukata. She interacted and took photos with other speakers and fans.
At the talk show, Thuy Van said she always wants to spread good cultural and humane values in any of her projects.
“In 2016, I and the top 5 Miss International 2015 were invited by the Japanese government to become Japan Tourism Ambassadors, contributing to promoting tourism and culture of the land of the rising sun internationally. I like to go to remote, less visited areas in Japan to do volunteer work instead of just going to famous tourist destinations like Tokyo, Osaka... I like to experience everything about this wonderful country.”
The beauty was impressed by the kindness and honesty of the Japanese people. She once left her wallet at a place she went out to, but luckily someone picked it up and when she returned to the hotel, the wallet was immediately returned to her.
Thuy Van believes that she has had a connection with Japan for a long time. Since she was a child, she loved reading Japanese comics. An interesting coincidence is that her husband's name is also Nhat. The beauty jokingly said that she must have been Japanese in her previous life because she loves this country so much. However, after 3 years of the pandemic, plus getting married and having children, she still hasn't been able to return to Japan to travel as she wished. However, receiving invitations to cooperate with Japanese brands, she feels happy.
