On the morning of May 12, Chi Pu's representative posted a post sharing behind-the-scenes stories surrounding her participation in the show Sisters Who Make Waves 2023.(Tread the Wind 2023).

Chi Pu's side revealed that while traveling from Vietnam to the filming location (Hunan province, China), the female singer encountered an incident. Specifically, while in transit at Shanghai airport, Chi Pu had two packages detained by customs because they were considered "suspicious".

"Among the nearly ten pieces of luggage that we dragged to China for the first filming trip, there were 2 pieces containing green rice cakes as gifts for the "beautiful ladies". "Thanks" to these 2 pieces of luggage "considered suspicious", Chi Pu was detained at Shanghai airport for baggage inspection during transit. By the time customs finished checking and found everything normal, the plane had already left, so Chi Pu had to stay in the waiting room for 5 hours to wait for the next flight", Chi Pu's manager said.

Speaking more about the reason for choosing green rice cake to bring to the program, Chi Pu's side shared: "In the meeting and exchange between artists, the Organizing Committee asked the beauties to prepare dishes typical of their hometown to introduce at the program. Fresh green rice from Vong village and green rice cake are specialties of the capital Hanoi - where Chi Pu was born. Therefore, the female singer decided to bring these two dishes to the program. In the end, we are very happy because everyone praised it as delicious, the "big sisters" and everyone in the program crew liked it."

In addition, during the intimate Q&A session of the 33 contestants, Chi Pu also thoughtfully prepared an ao dai and a pair of plane tickets to Vietnam to give to the person who answered her question correctly. Amber was the lucky one to receive Chi Pu's gift. The f(x) member could not hide her excitement and ran around the stage.

Standing in front of 33 beauties, Chi Pu proudly introduced: "This is the ao dai, the traditional costume of Vietnam". At the same time, the 9X singer promised to be a tour guide when Amber travels to Vietnam.
