Miss Thuy Tien admits mistake, asks for compensation for customers who bought Kera vegetable candy

On March 15, Miss Thuy Tien once again spoke out about the recent controversy related to the advertisement of Kera vegetable candy. This time, she frankly admitted her mistake and promised to correct it.

“Today, after working with the Department of Radio, Television and Electronic Information, and being informed and reminded by everyone, I am more deeply aware of my shortcomings. I want to face my mistakes honestly, without avoiding them. Accepting to participate in advertising but not fully understanding the product. That was the first mistake. I cannot justify it with other things, because that does not make my mistake smaller. That is the first mistake, undeniable,” Thuy Tien expressed.

According to Thuy Tien, she was lucky to be loved by the audience, but she responded with carelessness. This was the second and most serious mistake.

“Regret or an apology is not enough and cannot make up for it. Maybe I will be forgiven, maybe not, but the most important thing is that I am deeply aware of my mistakes. Because the scariest feeling is not being scolded by everyone, but realizing that I have hurt the trust of those who love me,” she wrote.

Thuy Tien expressed that she wanted to once again bow her head to apologize to everyone and will definitely make things right. She promised to coordinate with the brand to support compensation and refunds for customers.

According to Thuy Tien, she wants to participate in programs that talk about the responsibility of KOLs in promoting products, as a living example of mistakes, not as a beauty queen or a celebrity. She hopes that her own mistakes can become lessons to help others avoid making the same mistakes.

“This is not the last time I face myself. I will not let this mistake be forgotten over time, but use it to remind myself every day. I will say my apology through action,” the beauty queen shared.

On the afternoon of March 14, Chi Em Rot Group Joint Stock Company (CER) held a press conference in Hanoi. At the press conference, a representative of CER Group said that Thuy Tien is only a KOL, promoting the vegetable candy product. In addition, the beauty queen does not have any other role with this brand. The work that Thuy Tien committed to supporting the Kera team has been completed, according to CER Group's confirmation.

"Due to the difficulty in eating many types of vegetables, Thuy Tien found vegetable candy to be a useful solution not only for herself but also meaningful for Vietnamese agricultural products. Thuy Tien became an enthusiastic companion from the very beginning of the project. Up to now, Thuy Tien has not received any remuneration from the project," said a representative of CER Group.

The above vegetable candy was advertised by Thuy Tien, Quang Linh Vlogs, and Hang Du Muc since the end of 2024, then caused a huge controversy.

The Food Safety Department has requested an inspection of the production process, product announcement and advertising to clarify related issues. The Ministry of Health has not yet released any information after the inspection.

The Department of Radio, Television and Electronic Information invited Ms. Nguyen Thi Thai Hang (Hang Du Muc), Mr. Pham Quang Linh (Quang Linh Vlogs), Ms. Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien (Miss Grand International 2021) to work on the afternoon of March 14.

The Department of Radio, Television and Electronic Information has drawn up a record of administrative violations against Mr. Pham Quang Linh and Ms. Nguyen Thi Thai Hang for their false advertising, causing confusion about the announced quality. Miss Thuy Tien was warned but not punished.
