Parents are heartbroken because of their busy schedule.

Crowned Miss Universe Vietnam 2025, from an office worker completely new to the media, Nguyen Hoang Phuong Linh now has to face a constantly changing schedule, having to learn and adapt quickly every day.

Currently, Phuong Linh divides her time 50-50 between the apartment provided by the organizer and her own house, which are less than 1km apart. On days when she has early schedules and the crew comes to support, she stays at the apartment. On days when she has time to have dinner with her family, she returns home to reunite. Phuong Linh said the way to find inspiration is to return home to have a family meal.

Nearly 30 family members went to Nha Trang to cheer her on in the beauty pageant, and nearly four months later, the story of her coronation is still the topic of conversation every week. Phuong Linh's parents were happy at first, but then they felt heartbroken when they saw their daughter leave early in the morning and return late at night. Phuong Linh's mother often tried to cook food for her daughter when she went out to take photos from morning to night in Ho Chi Minh City.

Phuong Linh accepts that her schedule is very unpredictable, no two days are the same, and adapting to it is a matter of adopting a “do what you do at the right time” philosophy. Knowing how to set boundaries and be disciplined helps her avoid being overwhelmed.

Aiming for top 5 Miss Cosmo 2025

Preparing for the upcoming Miss Cosmo 2025, Phuong Linh received great support from the management company.

Sharing with VietNamNet, Phuong Linh said that every day she tries to balance many things. With a busy schedule, it is difficult to have a fixed schedule, so many times at 10 pm she is still learning makeup and hairdressing. Phuong Linh takes advantage of every free moment to learn new skills.

Although she is already quite good, Phuong Linh still studies English to create an environment to practice speaking more fluently and naturally. During the 1 month of competition, she will have to speak English every day, not only with the contestants but also with the judges.

Regarding asking for experience from predecessors, Phuong Linh shared that her schedule and that of Miss Cosmo Vietnam 2023 Bui Xuan Hanh, reigning Miss Cosmo 2024 Tata Juliastrid, and runner-up Mook Karnruethai Tassabut are all quite busy. However, they are all willing to share their experiences and help Phuong Linh.

Miss Cosmo Vietnam 2023 Bui Xuan Hanh is willing to help Phuong Linh. Despite being busy, whenever Phuong Linh texts to ask questions or share experiences, Xuan Hanh is always willing to answer.

When asked about her goal at Miss Cosmo 2025, Phuong Linh hopes to be in the Top 5 to have a voice and an opportunity to express the thoughts of a Vietnamese person in the international arena. However, that is a goal for her to strive for, not an ambition to achieve by all means.

''I am someone who never looks at just one side but always looks at both sides - if it works out, great, but if not, there is still all the value from the preparation process,'' she shared.

Currently, Phuong Linh is practicing with a supermodel and preparing for the Green Summit competition - a community project category.

Despite being busy with many schedules, Phuong Linh also takes on the role of Ambassador of the Vietnamese Essence Award organized by Dai Doan Ket newspaper - the Central Agency of the Vietnam Fatherland Front to honor the values ​​of Vietnamese people and spread the essence of Vietnam.
