A face that scores points on the fashion stage.

From the very first rounds, Do Thanh Thao was one of the contestants who received a lot of attention thanks to her confident demeanor and consistent performance. Possessing a foundation of prior experience, she quickly demonstrated confidence in every catwalk step, stage presence, and expression in front of the camera.

Previously, Thanh Thảo had made her mark in beauty pageants such as:
- Made it into the Top 15 of Miss Tourism Northwest 2023;
- Won the title of Best Physique at the Miss Tourism Northwest 2023 competition;
- Miss of K-DNU 2024 (organized by the Faculty of Language and Culture)
- He was chosen to participate in many professional fashion shows such as: Vietnam Beauty Fashion Show, Vietnamese Beauty Show, The Potter Tells Stories,...

However, instead of letting those achievements become a "stopping point," Thanh Thảo viewed them as a foundation for continued development. Through each competition round, she not only maintained her performance but also gradually refined her image in a more professional and consistent direction.

First Runner-up Title - The Result of a Serious Journey of Self-Discovery

Despite having many advantages, Thanh Thảo never took anything for granted when participating in Hương Sắc Đại Nam 2026. She always took it seriously and put in a lot of effort in all training and workshops, as it was an opportunity for her to learn valuable life lessons.

Thảo shared: “Although I have participated in many beauty contests before, I am still determined to register for Hương sắc Đại Nam because here I can connect and learn more from my classmates and I have the opportunity to learn how to love and live responsibly towards the community.”

The unexpected dream of the runner-up of the Miss Beauty of Dai Nam pageant.

Behind the image of a confident contestant on stage, Thanh Thảo – a student majoring in Korean Language and Culture – harbors a dream that is somewhat less glamorous than her stage persona. That dream is to become a Korean language teacher – a job requiring strong academic abilities and a high level of discipline.

The learning and training process at Dai Nam University has contributed to shaping Thanh Thao into a more confident and polished individual in her self-expression. The skills acquired from the classroom, combined with practical experience on stage, have helped her hone her ability to command public speaking and balance knowledge with soft skills – crucial elements for sustainable development in pursuing her future dreams.
Thanh Thảo shared: “I want to inspire my students in the future: to confidently step out of their comfort zone, try new things just like I have been doing on the stage of Hương sắc Đại Nam 2026.”

Do Thanh Thao won third prize at the 2025 Korean Literature Drama Adaptation Competition.

To hone her skills, she actively participated in academic competitions and achieved many accomplishments, such as:
- Second Prize in the 2024 Korean Literary Adaptation Drama Competition
- Third Prize in the 2025 Korean Literary Adaptation Drama Competition

Dr. Tran Hai Duong - Head of the Department of Korean Language and Culture, Dai Nam University - where Thao is studying, shared: “Thao is a student with excellent academic achievements, always serious and actively participating in academic activities and extracurricular events of the Department and the University. I am truly happy and proud to witness her journey in the Huong Sac Dai Nam beauty contest. The title of First Runner-up is a well-deserved achievement for her efforts, and also a source of pride for the Department.”

The Beauty of Dai Nam - a new journey with much hope ahead.

Do Thanh Thao's journey at Huong Sac Dai Nam 2026 is not just a story about a title, but also a testament to her growth through each choice and effort.

This is precisely the spirit that the competition aims for – a place where contestants can shine, be challenged, train, and comprehensively improve themselves. From there, each individual can enhance their visual appeal, become more confident in their thinking, and develop stronger character.

Closely linked to Dai Nam University's educational philosophy, this journey clearly reflects the orientation towards holistic human development – where students are not only equipped with solid professional knowledge but are also encouraged to explore their own limits, develop skills, and cultivate positive values.
