Last night (December 18), the final selection round for the position of host of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire took place with two potential candidates being journalist Phan Dang (born in 1984) and MC Duc Bao (born in 1987).

This final selection round is a trial recording at S16 studio, VTV with pressure from real players and real audiences. After the selection round last night, this morning (December 19), the program Who Wants to Be a Millionaire will record the first episode of 2018 with the guidance of journalist Phan Dang.

During the trial recording, Phan Dang appeared quite confident and comfortable with the job he was undertaking for the first time.

Previously, at the trial recording on the evening of December 18, because he had never hosted a TV show before, journalist Phan Dang arrived quite early to practice hosting. He was given detailed instructions by director Lai Bac Hai Dang from visual aspects to how to talk and lead, such as: how to sit in the hot seat, hand gestures, how to intertwine words, and how to respond to characters...

Although the first practice was quite difficult and required many repetitions, when he tried it out with real players, real audiences, and without a director to guide him, journalist Phan Dang performed very confidently, fluently, and comfortably. Immediately after, he received high praise from the show's crew as well as the director.

"I am here to do the first job I have ever done in my life - that is hosting a show" - journalist Phan Dang shared at the studio.

Meanwhile, with experience as MC of many TV shows and a charming and natural way of hosting, MC Duc Bao confidently completed his trial hosting part, stirring up the studio and helping the players to reduce stress.

Duc Bao was confident in the test presentation on the evening of December 18.

The new host of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire is expected to bring a new look to the 13-year-old show and will be welcomed and loved by television audiences.
