Young people pursuing a career in reviewing.

Browsing major social media platforms like Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, users can easily find short clips with diverse content, ranging from reviews of movies, clothing, technology devices, and food. With their authenticity and relatable nature, review videos have become a useful reference channel for consumers due to the reviewers' real-life experiences, honest assessments, and insights.

Currently, watching review videos is a trend among young people. Restaurants with good reviews attract more customers. Reviewers will "reveal" delicious, unique, and undiscovered restaurants to viewers, helping consumers make informed choices that suit their needs when shopping and using services.

Nguyen Tan Dung (born in 2000) entered the social media platform TikTok with short clips showcasing food and tourist attractions in An Giang, especially in Rach Gia ward. He was captivated by the interesting experiences, dynamism, and connections offered by content creation. From 2023 to the present, Dung's TikTok channel has over 200 short clips reviewing delicious food, long-standing restaurants in Rach Gia, and products and services, which have garnered many positive comments and likes.

Dũng shared: “In the beginning, I faced many difficulties, but with my passion and love for reviewing, I learned as I went along, and now everything has improved. Through my videos on TikTok, more and more people are getting to know me. From my review work, Dũng earns an average of about 15 million VND extra per month.”

According to many reviewers, good income comes with a lot of pressure, because the TikTok platform is constantly changing. Its appeal lies in its forward-thinking nature, forcing content creators to adapt and keep up with trends. With such high pressure, if you lack perseverance and a mindset for constantly changing content and finding new things, your channel can easily fall behind. Becoming a professional reviewer requires many essential skills. Along with that, reviewers must be creative and constantly adapt to refresh themselves. As more reviewers appear, offering more choices, viewers are becoming increasingly discerning in their information choices. Therefore, retaining existing viewers and attracting new ones is a difficult challenge for reviewers. To attract viewers, continuous creativity and change are essential for reviewers.

Besides positive experiences thanks to reviews, there are many negative reviews, such as shocking criticisms that are inaccurate. There are even numerous cases of false reviews, sometimes for advertising purposes, and other times as commissioned attacks to discredit competitors… Ms. Vo Thi Phuong Anh, a resident of Rach Gia ward, shared: “I usually check reviews before deciding to buy an item or experience a service to avoid fake reviews. I only follow channels with a large number of followers and a good reputation to avoid losing money and getting ripped off.”
