A week after ending her term at the Miss Grand Vietnam finals, Miss Le Hoang Phuong is still moved with mixed emotions.

Sharing with the media, the beauty from Khanh Hoa said that the final walk (the last steps of her term) was a special mark for her, a milestone marking 10 years of pursuing art.

The 9X beauty queen said that when her name was called out for the last time on stage, she fell to her knees and cried unconsciously without any prior planning: "At first, I planned that my final walk would be funny and I wouldn't cry to keep a good image. But in the end, I wanted to follow my natural emotions. I didn't expect to cry so much.

I have today thanks to the support of the audience, so I chose to appear among 50 "die-hard fans", representing those who have supported me for the past 10 years. On stage, there were also the appearance of my parents, I felt complete because all the people who love me were present at that moment."

Looking back on her 10-year journey in the arts, Le Hoang Phuong said that her family has always been a solid support to help her overcome difficulties. At the age of 18, the beauty dreamed of appearing on the international stage and unexpectedly, 10 years later, that dream has come true.

"In 2022, there was a time when I wanted to give up on this journey, but my friends and family encouraged me to try my hand at a beauty pageant one last time. I didn't think I would be named Miss, and then go on to win the international runner-up title.

I am grateful to those who have been with me for the past 10 years. I am also grateful to myself for having many times of pressure but not giving up," the beauty born in 1995 said.

According to Le Hoang Phuong, over the past 10 years, she has lived a meaningful youth journey. She wants to convey the message: Pursuing a dream is not only about time but also about passion. "If it took me 10 years to get to such a position with a challenging journey, then everyone can do it if given the opportunity," the beauty queen expressed.

Closing a chapter of her youth, Le Hoang Phuong said that in the coming time she will focus more on her architectural business. The beauty is also studying for a Master of Business Administration at Hutech University (HCMC).

Starting out as a model, the long-legged Khanh Hoa still wants to pursue art. At the age of 29, Miss Grand Vietnam 2023 also has age pressures. She believes that this is an implicit pressure for her to try harder in her career.

"I always know who I am, and having the title of Miss is a resonance for me to be able to help the next generation. I always remind myself that I am nothing, I have to learn a lot more.

I also think about getting married, but that will be a story in the next 5 years. I hope by then I will have a suitable other half," Le Hoang Phuong confided.
