At the press conference introducing the program, which took place on the afternoon of July 17, in response to questions about the five-year-olds being too immature to stand on a big stage, music director Luu Thien Huong said that children today are mature for their age. She was surprised that many children were only five years old but performed confidently.

What the show's crew is worried about is not the age of the contestants but the song selection. The current music market rarely has new compositions for children. Luu Thien Huong has to spend time choosing songs with family and social themes that are suitable for children. Sometimes, she has to rewrite the lyrics of adult songs for the young contestants to perform. What Luu Thien Huong is most looking forward to this year is that coaches Tien Cookie and Cat Tuong will compose new songs for the contestants.

Another new point this year, in addition to the music advisor, through the rounds, singers appeared to support and guide the children to sing the songs associated with their names.In the Confrontation round, the coach has the right to save the contestant from the other team, but not directly on stage, but with the crew, goes to the child singer's place of residence and gives the opportunity as a surprise gift.
