“I really admire the contestants of the Miss Vietnam pageant because they can confidently stand on stage with thousands of spectators, answer questions intelligently and always shine. So since 2006, I have cherished the dream of participating in this contest. Besides, the Miss Vietnam Beauty with a Heart journey makes me very excited. Through it, the contestants will be able to participate in many community projects, helping people in difficult circumstances in life” - Quynh Trang said.
Although born and raised in Nghe An, Quynh Trang is currently studying in Saigon. Life away from home is not easy for the girl from Nghe An. “In fact, at first when I decided to set foot in Ho Chi Minh City to study, I didn't think that I would encounter any difficulties. I just thought: "I am studying at a university of my dreams, a city that I love, pursuing my ambitions and desires." But when I was really far away from home, I realized that there were many difficulties that my parents had protected me and helped me with. It was the first time I cooked alone, ate meals alone, cleaned the house alone, and had to take care of myself when I was sick... But the most difficult thing for me was probably loneliness. Most of my friends' families live nearby, so they would periodically come home to visit or be visited by their parents. As for me, my hometown is far away, and I don't have the conditions to visit home often, so sometimes when I see my friends meeting their parents, I feel sad. So every night, I always take time to video call my parents, meet my younger brother, and talk more. It's only when I'm far away from home that I feel truly happy. "Every time I get to return to my hometown is truly precious" - Quynh Trang confided.

According to Quynh Trang, a beauty queen who can compete in international beauty pageants needs to balance compassion and knowledge. |
Coming to the Miss Vietnam 2020 contest, Quynh Trang hopes to touch the noble crown. However, the biggest goal is to overcome herself, become more confident, and improve herself to become the best version.
Besides, the 10x female student believes that becoming a beauty queen will change her life a lot. It is a title that many girls dream of. However, along with the title will come responsibilities to herself, her family and society.
“For everyone, the showbiz halo is beautiful: being known by everyone, making a lot of money, dressing gorgeously,... But for me, the showbiz halo is the halo of passion, it represents people who are doing the job they love and dream of, and are able to devote themselves to that passion. Many people may say that to enter showbiz, you have to make a lot of sacrifices, but I personally think that when that sacrifice can help you give your all to the job you want, the job you dream of, why don't you try it?" - Quynh Trang shared more.

Currently, Quynh Trang is actively learning and practicing more skills to prepare well for the competition.
“In my opinion, to be a beauty queen, not only do you need to be beautiful, but studying is also very important. So I try my best to improve my knowledge. Not only the knowledge in books at school but also knowledge about society and life. I hope that after participating in the Miss Vietnam contest, it will help me meet more friends, learn and develop myself in many aspects” - Quynh Trang emphasized.
