Tran Thi Thu Ngan - a student studying in Switzerland - won the highest title in the first beauty contest held in Vietnam with a prize worth 500 million VND.

During the behavioral round, Tran Thi Thu Ngan was asked the question: "In the era of globalization, do you think it is necessary to preserve Vietnamese cultural identity and why?". However, she misread it as: "In the era of globalization, is Vietnamese identity still important?". Beauty Ngoc Diem - MC of the program - had to correct the question.

Responding to this question, Thu Ngan said: “The identity, culture and people of a nation are the core. We, whether in the past or present, integrated or not, need to preserve that cultural identity. I want to affirm one thing: Vietnam needs to integrate, not dissolve."

At the press conference after the final night, the new beauty queen said that she was so nervous on stage that she stumbled a bit. When she was asked a question, she did not read it carefully and forgot to give the question to the MC, so she did not remember the behavioral question that was asked of her.
