"Transcend the past" to shine brightly.
Before entering the competition, Ngoc Huyen was already a familiar face in the media activities of Dai Nam University. While this might seem like an advantage, this very "familiarity" inadvertently became a source of pressure as Huyen had to face the expectations of her friends and teachers, along with numerous prejudices and comparisons.
With her impressive academic record throughout her university years, many believed she didn't need to prove herself any further. But that's precisely why Ngoc Huyen decided to participate in the Miss Dai Nam 2026 beauty pageant – not to prove how talented she is, but to break through her past limitations.

When pressure becomes a driving force for breakthroughs.
While in the early rounds, Ngoc Huyen presented herself as a stable and confident contestant, she showed a clear transformation as the competition progressed. Particularly in the talent segment, Huyen truly exploded with an emotional performance, a powerful answer to all previous doubts.
It was this transformation that helped Huyen gradually win over the judges and the audience. From a familiar face, she became a standout not because of her past achievements, but because of her change and growth through each round of the competition.
