On the evening of July 30, the National Costume competition within the framework of the Miss Grand Vietnam 2024 contest took place in Phan Thiet city, Binh Thuan province.

This competition attracted attention when the audience discovered that the national cultural costume named Trung Vuong introduced by the MC was inspired by the design of Hai Ba Trung.

However, the quote is actually from Lady Trieu. The historical confusion has upset many viewers.

Miss Grand Vietnam organizers apologize to the audience

From the audience's feedback, the Miss Grand Vietnam contest organizers apologized to the audience.

The organizing committee representative admitted that there was a mistake in the information in the Trung Vuong costume performance by designer Nguyen Huy Hoang, on coach Vu Lan Anh's team.

The organizers explained: "During the contestant's performance, the organizers immediately noticed a mistake in historical details. However, because the program was broadcast live, we were unable to handle it immediately.

Immediately after the performance, we stopped broadcasting and cut out the performance with this mistake. We sincerely apologize and this is a profound lesson for us. We hope that the audience will sympathize."

"Previously, during the rehearsal night of July 29, the quote of General Ba Trieu was not used in the performance. The organizing committee did not approve the addition of Ba Trieu's quote that the designer intended to include in the competition night of July 30.

However, the technical staff mistakenly used an audio file that the organizers had not approved. The organizers would like to take responsibility for their mistake and hope that the audience will forgive the unfortunate mistake," the organizers added.
