Yen Nhi caused controversy when answering in English at Miss Grand International 2025

During the meeting with the President of Miss Grand International - Nawat Itsaragrisil and the reigning Miss Christine Juliane Opiaza, Nguyen Thi Yen Nhi only briefly introduced herself. When Mr. Nawat asked again: "Is there anything else?", the beauty seemed confused and had to ask for suggestions from the contestant next to her.

When asked the next question: “What are your hobbies?”, the Vietnamese representative answered hesitantly, admitting that his English ability was “not very good”.
