Director Do Duc Hieu's series, "Loi Hua Dau Tien," premiered on 16/4 on Vietnam Television (VTV) and has garnered significant audience interest. Excerpts from the film have attracted hundreds of thousands of views on Facebook, with viewers praising its engaging and dramatic content.

Huyen Trang portrays Vi Minh, a Tay woman who wins the "Miss for Community" title. The new miss faced criticism for being less striking than the two runners-up, securing her crown based on an inspiring story of overcoming adversity. After winning the title and signing with a management company, Vi Minh encountered numerous challenges, including discrimination and temptations as she gained fame.

Huyen Trang, 26, from Hai Duong, graduated from the Academy of Journalism and Communication. She entered cinema through photo modeling during her student years. She previously played supporting roles in "Khong Thoi Gian," "Nhung Neo Duong Gan Xa," and "Lang Trong Pho."

First runner-up Miss Universe Vietnam 2024, Quynh Anh, appears in the film as Thanh Huong. As a model and actress before competing in beauty pageants, Thanh Huong commands a large fanbase. She often overshadows Miss Vi Minh and serves as the management company's key asset.

Quynh Anh, 27, is 1,73 m tall. She has earned titles such as first runner-up in The Face Vietnam 2018 and champion of Supermodel Asia 2021, making her a sought-after fashion personality.

Model Huong Lien appears in the film as Linh Anh, another prominent figure from the beauty pageant. Linh Anh sides with Thanh Huong, frequently mocking and undermining Miss Vi Minh.

Huong Lien, 23, from Ha Nam, gained recognition through The Face Vietnam 2023. After the competition, she primarily worked as a photo model, developed a TikTok channel, and became a key opinion leader (KOL). Last year, she married a businessman.

Actress Maya portrays Quynh Mai. This character is the mastermind behind the pageant that Vi Minh won. Mai is money-driven and calculating, carefully strategizing Vi Minh's rise to the top position. In return, Vi Minh becomes her pawn.

Her real name is Mai Thu Huong, 38, from Ha Noi. She is known to audiences as a singer and actress. She appeared in films such as "Scandal: Bi Mat Tham Do," "Em La Cua Em," and "Vo Ba." From 2021-2023, she was absent from the entertainment industry to treat facial paralysis caused by Bell's palsy. Besides singing and acting, she currently runs a business. The beauty is a single mother to her 11-year-old daughter, Bo Cau.
