The audience was disappointed with Vietnam’s representative, Doan Thu Thuy, who ended up as the fourth runner-up due to her deficiencies in English proficiency. 

They noticed her struggles during the Q&A round as she was unable to express her answers fluently.

Some viewers believe that the 28-year-old contestant could have improved her performance by utilizing a translator.
