Nghe An beauty Ngoc Nu regrets stopping competing in Miss Vietnam

Ngoc Nu said she asked permission from the Miss Vietnam 2018 organizing committee two days ago and received approval. She also did not participate in the photo shoot in ao dai and swimsuit with other contestants. She is currently back in her hometown in Nghe An to rest before returning to other projects.

"During this time, my work schedule has changed a lot, depending on my partners. Therefore, I regret not being able to arrange nearly 3 months to participate in the Miss Vietnam 2018 contest," Ngoc Nu shared the reason for stopping the competition.

Previously, in the Northern preliminary round held on July 8, Ngoc Nu was one of the contestants who attracted attention because of her lovely, photogenic face and bright smile. This beauty is 24 years old, 1.66m tall, and graduated from the Vietnam Agricultural Academy. Ngoc Nu competed in Miss Universe Vietnam 2017 and entered the top 10 finalists, winning the "Photogenic Beauty" sub-award even though she was not highly rated from the beginning.

Ngoc Nu herself shared that she participated in Miss Vietnam as a special mark of her youth. "I remember the days in Russia watching the World Cup, wearing the national ao dai and the red flag with yellow star fluttering all over the stands. That was when the Miss Vietnam 2018 contest officially began. I decided to stop my youthful passion in Russia and return to Vietnam to try my hand at Miss Vietnam. If I try and win that prestigious title, I will have the opportunity to bring the image and beauty of Vietnamese people to the world."

When the news of her retirement was shared, many people said that Ngoc Nu did not have enough factors to go far because she was quite old and had limited height. The beauty from Nghe An analyzed that the new Miss America 2018 was only 1.65m tall and 24 years old. So despite having the same limitations as Miss America, she was more confident in putting her name in the group of excellent contestants thanks to other advantages such as face and communication skills. "I think when we try our best, opportunities are always shared equally among all."

Although she felt a little regretful about leaving the contest, Ngoc Nu still followed and supported the remaining contestants. Among the contestants who made it to the final round in the North, Ngoc Nu had feelings for Vu Thi Tuyet Trang and Le Thanh Tu because all three had time together in the previous contest. However, Ngoc Nu believes that some new faces with good academic backgrounds are potential factors for the Miss Vietnam crown this year.
