Head of Organizing Committee, CEO Pham Kim Dung: Tuan Ngoc won convincingly
Ms. Pham Kim Dung, Chairwoman Mr World Vietnam 2024 said, the king won convincingly. Everyone’s answer was worthy, but the king title can only be one.
“We are very satisfied with the way you two responded. Many people say that response is the deciding factor in victory and determining the position. But in reality, everything is added up from the beginning and we will choose the person who is slightly better in every aspect. That means you two are equally matched, but we can only choose one,” said CEO Pham Kim Dung.
The Head of the Organizing Committee and the Head of the Jury said that Tuan Ngoc was better than everything else. The Jury’s requirement for selecting international contestants was that they were experienced, had influence on the public, had experience in taking the contest, and had invested time.

“The organizing committee monitors the contestants every day, looking at their changes to see good results. As I said, this result is worthy,” CEO Pham Kim Dung added.
After the Mr World Vietnam final, CEO Pham Kim Dung said she was happy that the first season of the competition was more successful than expected, from the quality of the contestants to the final results.
“The contestants come from many different backgrounds, some are models, some are English teachers, some are students, and some have worked as MCs, doctors… Most of the contestants think about the community and actively participate in charity projects for the community. I think this is a good thing for the Organizing Committee of Mr World Vietnam 2024,” said CEO Pham Kim Dung.
Regarding the organization of Mr World Vietnam, CEO Pham Kim Dung said that in addition to the purpose of finding the winner and competing in Mr World, she realized that this is a necessary playground for men.
“They have a beautiful appearance, talent, and a desire to participate in the art field. But sometimes not everyone who is passionate about art can easily reach it, so the beauty contest for men is also a stepping stone for them to get closer to the art and entertainment field. I think this is a common need of young people in this field, not that we organize Mr. World Vietnam because the contest for women is saturated,” CEO Pham Kim Dung added.

As for actor Minh Tiep (Deputy Director of Co Loa Viet National Film Studio – Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism), a member of the jury, he said that the upcoming male king will have more training sessions on courage and behavior. Tuan Ngoc will also improve many things to prepare for the Mister World contest held in Vietnam.

Actor Minh Tiep affirmed that Vietnamese men are becoming more and more handsome and brave. When he received the invitation to be a judge for Mr. World Vietnam 2024, he immediately agreed to participate. “There are many beauty contests honoring female beauty, so there must be a playground for men.

Director Hoang Nhat Nam: Mr World Vietnam 2024 focuses on the beauty of the soul
After the final night, director Hoang Nhat Nam, general director of Mr World Vietnam 2024, said he agreed with the results from the jury, from the Tuan Ngoc crowned to positions in top 3, top 5.
According to director Hoang Nhat Nam, the winner not only has a beautiful body, but also a beautiful soul.
“Compared to some other contestants, Tuan Ngoc and Minh Toai are not too muscular. However, Mr World Vietnam emphasizes intellectual beauty, along with physical beauty. That is the reason why Tuan Ngoc, Minh Toai and many contestants with not too muscular physiques still made it to the top, of course their physiques are beautiful compared to the standards. This is also the reason for Mr World to leave an impression, to create a difference, meaning that in addition to appearance, the male contestants need to have a beautiful soul,” said director Hoang Nhat Nam.

Director Hoang Nhat Nam said the organizers had reasons for choosing Tuan Ngoc for the highest position. The contestants have a long career. The organizers looked at that to find the right candidate and chose him to be crowned the highest position. The judges always research to find the right person, confidently entrusting the responsibility of Mister World Vietnam to the right person.
When some people said that the male pageant focused on knowledge, director Hoang Nhat Nam said that was true, but not enough. In the final night, male pageant winner Tuan Ngoc, top 3 Minh Toai and Dinh Ta Bi, along with 26 other contestants, showed off their physical beauty through many competitions.
“The contestants’ bodies are shown through the sportswear competition, we do not let the contestants compete in swimsuits. This is the first year Mr World Vietnam has been held. We emphasize the healthy beauty, intelligence and ability of the contestants. The appearance of the king is necessary, we have a photo shoot in the forest for the contestants to show off their bodies. In the final night, the contestants also show off their bodies, but in the end, the winner must have many factors, including spiritual and intellectual beauty,” added director Hoang Nhat Nam.
