This result surprised the audience because in the 9 episodes of the show, Lan Khue and the members had never won any of the challenges. The fact that Le Thu Trang was named as the top winner caused some controversy.

Talking about Le Thu Trang's victory, the representative of the Jury - Pharmacist Tien - said that the final result was only based on the final performances, not evaluating the competition process in the previous 9 episodes.

According to Pharmacist Tien, in the presentation about her hometown, Le Thu Trang was the one who explained more clearly and distinctly than Nhu Van and Mai Ngo. In terms of performance, all three were on par with each other, not much different.

"There was definitely never any prize buying or arrangement to buy prizes. The results were based on the judges' scores for each part of the competition, then added up to be divided equally among the contestants, without any intervention or coordination from me.

We can completely publicize the scorecard to prove our transparency and clarity," said Pharmacist Tien.

According to him, luck plays an important role in a competition. If a contestant is hindered mentally or physically, they cannot perform well.

"We guarantee fairness in the results, but I cannot guarantee fairness in terms of the health, psychology and performance of the contestants. Today's champion is a little luckier and more special than the two runners-up," Pharmacist Tien added.

As for Nhu Van, she said she was completely satisfied with the result. "Le Thu Trang deserves your efforts and dedication over many years. With the audience's trust and expectations for her to be crowned, I am extremely grateful and happy, not feeling regretful," Ho Ngoc Ha's student expressed.

Similarly, Mai Ngo said she was quite surprised when Le Thu Trang was called for the highest position. However, she affirmed that her colleague was completely worthy of this title.

Le Thu Trang said: "I didn't think I would win the championship. I'm happy and confident that I did my best today. Even though I received mixed opinions, I'm still grateful for being able to contribute to making myself better. If people have followed my journey, they will definitely know how hard I've tried to get to where I am today."

Lam Chau cried and apologized for his noisy attitude.

Before the final round, Lam Chau - the youngest contestant on the show (born in 2003) - became the focus of public criticism for allegedly being disrespectful to his seniors.

At the final nightThe new mentor,Lam Chau sobbed and bowed her head to apologize to the audience for her unnecessary noise. "I apologize for my shortcomings that have upset everyone," she said.

Responding to Lam Chau being eliminated from the top 5 because of her "attitude scandal", Pharmacist Tien said: "She was not in the top 5 because of the previous scandals. However, she chose to sacrifice her performance to resolve her personal story, which led to her score not being perfect.

However, I think Lam Chau made the right choice in expressing his feelings and thoughts at this time."
