On their personal pages, many reporters expressed their frustration at having to wait for the powerful trio The Face for an hour. Some posted pictures of the empty auditorium, expressing their dissatisfaction on social media.

Reporter BN wrote: "The press conference was at 9:30 but by 11:00 there was still no sign of any coach", or "The Face is a big, highly anticipated show, but it seems the coaches are not aware of this so they can come whenever they want, almost 2 hours have passed and no one has shown up yet". Even at the press conference, many reporters expressed their dissatisfaction and wanted to leave because they had to wait too long.

Explaining the unprofessionalism of Lan Khue, Hoang Thuy and Minh Tu, the program's media representative said that Lan Khue arrived earliest at 11am, Hoang Thuy arrived shortly after, and Minh Tu appeared at 11:30am.

This person said that the coaches arrived late because yesterday (May 22), they and the contestants filmed the show until 4am. "The three judges did not have much time to prepare for their appearance this morning. Minh Tu also had health problems, she had to be given an IV before arriving at the press conference" - this person added.

Appearing at 11:30, Minh Tu immediately apologized to the media. She said she was late because she had to go to the hospital for a health check this morning. The 1992-born model also apologized in English.
