Besides the Miss and Runner-up titles, the Best Face award is also one of the awards that excites contestants. In the Miss Cosmo 2025 season, this title officially belonged to the contestant with the smallest waist, Hoang Kim Ngan, making fans extremely happy.
At the semi-final night of Miss Cosmo Vietnam 2025, the name Hoang Kim Ngan suddenly became the center of attention when she excellently won the Most Beautiful Face award and entered the Top 5 of the Sea Beauty contest. Possessing sharp beauty and extensive performance experience, the contestant from Gia Lai is highly appreciated by beauty fans, even being ranked in the group of potential candidates competing for the crown.
After receiving the coveted title, Hoang Kim Ngan had an interview with the media and unexpectedly opened up about her past, which haunted her to the point of almost becoming depressed. The person who changed her life and inspired Kim Ngan the most was her grandmother. She recounted a terrifying memory from her childhood: she was electrocuted and almost lost her life, but luckily her grandmother saved her in time.
"Throughout my growing up years, I always saw my grandmother silently sacrificing and caring for each child and grandchild without needing flowery words, just with loving actions," Kim Ngan confided. The biggest lesson she learned from her grandmother was that love does not need to be noisy, it just needs to be sincere. That love nurtured in her a grateful heart and a desire to spread love to those around her.
For Kim Ngan, music and volunteering are two important factors that help her nurture her inner strength and overcome difficult times. Music helps her find inner peace whenever she is happy or sad, while volunteering gives her the opportunity to share, love and receive positive energy. "It is those simple things that help me nurture my inner strength and maintain my faith in the good things in life," she shared.
The beauty also did not hesitate to admit that there were times when she doubted herself and the path she had chosen. At Miss Universe Vietnam's Cosmo Camp, Kim Ngan also experienced moments of real uncertainty, sometimes thinking about giving up not because of weakness but because she was truly exhausted and doubted herself. "It was during those difficult times that I saw myself clearly: I knew where my strengths were, what my weaknesses were, and realized the skills I lacked," Kim Ngan shared. She did not choose to give up but chose to slow down to understand herself, practice and continue to persevere.
Hoang Kim Ngan's journey has not been filled with roses. Before shining at Miss Cosmo Vietnam 2025, she had experienced memorable "failures". She participated in Miss Universe Vietnam in 2019 but did not achieve high results. In 2023, the beauty continued to register for The Face Vietnam, but also stopped in the Top 12. This failure became a valuable lesson. Kim Ngan admitted that she was very sad and doubted her ability, but that feeling urged her to look back and practice from the beginning, from demeanor, courage to confidence when performing on stage.
The fact that the model from Gia Lai suddenly returned to the beauty pageant this time surprised many people because she had never shared this intention with the audience before. Sharing the reason, Hoang Kim Ngan frankly said: "I once said, I do not regret what I have done, but only regret what I have not done when I had the chance. If I do not participate in the contest, that is a regret."
Hoang Kim Ngan showed a stable performance and was noticed from the beginning of the competition, belonging to the group of candidates with a lot of experience working in the art field. In the semi-final night, the beauty was praised for her graceful catwalk steps and sharp demeanor on stage, affirming her tireless efforts. She shared: "Any effort deserves to be recognized. And any journey needs time to shine. In the semi-final night, I did it."
Hoang Kim Ngan shared that when she returned to Miss Universe Vietnam 2025, she brought with her maturity and courage after a journey of overcoming her own limits. From there, the 10X beauty hopes to spread positive life inspiration to many people. "I came to the contest with the skepticism of others. But I believe in myself and go forward. I am ready to fight and spread the values that the contest brings," she shared with determination.
