Hoa Minzy is suspected of subtly mocking Hoang Yen Chibi, revealing a 12-year secret with one man!

Huy Tuan congratulated Hoa Minzy on winning the 'Singer of the Year' award, affirming that his faith in her was well-placed 12 years ago. Recalling her close comeback victory against Hoang Yen Chibi, Hoa Minzy revealed a secret about her mentor. The online community suddenly started mentioning Hoang Yen Chibi's name.

The "FAITH" hat and its belated recognition after 12 years.

Recently, on his personal page, musician Huy Tuan shared a touching moment when he personally presented the "Female Singer of the Year" award to Hoa Minzy. The musician attracted attention by wearing a hat with the word "FAITH" printed on it, along with a proud caption: "Hoa Minzy, the last girl to enter the competition room 12 years ago, is now the Female Singer of the Year." In response, Hoa Minzy surprised the public by revealing a secret about her hit song "Thi Mau": "Thank you, Teacher, for buying the song 'Thi Mau' for me, hehe." Huy Tuan immediately responded: "Bought it 8 years ago, and now it's become a trend, huh?"

The journey from the 2014 Star Academy champion to a music icon in 2026 is a long and arduous one. Huy Tuan's quiet preparation of his student's "weapons" nearly 10 years ago demonstrates a strategic vision and unwavering belief. Hoa Minzy couldn't hide her emotion when she affirmed: "This proves that my teacher's trust in me 12 years ago was not wrong." This statement was immediately scrutinized by netizens, who interpreted it as an implicit assertion of her dominant position over her former rivals, especially the runner-up, Hoang Yen Chibi.

Netizens are in an uproar: A thank you or a slap in the face to a former rival?

Immediately below the post, a series of comments from entertainment forums mentioned Hoang Yen Chibi. Many people believe that Hoa Minzy's emphasis on being the one who "proved the teacher's trust wasn't wrong" was like a cold shower on the careers of her contemporaries. While Hoa Minzy has flourished with two major awards and possesses hit songs with a strong folk culture feel, Hoang Yen Chibi has been relatively quiet in the music scene recently.

Some overly enthusiastic viewers even commented, "Is Hoa trying to say that choosing her was the right decision, and choosing others was wrong?" The rivalry between the winner and runner-up from years past has been brought up again. The "privilege" that Huy Tuan gave to Hoa Minzy – from buying exclusive song rights to patiently waiting for her to "reach the right level" – is seen as the clearest evidence of who is the truly "worthwhile" student in the eyes of this demanding music director.

Behind the glamour and the lesson of perseverance.

Despite speculation about her "taking jabs" at her colleagues, Hoa Minzy's victory in the "Female Singer of the Year" category is strong evidence of her persistent efforts. From her close victory in 2014 to her peak in 2026, her growth affirms the keen vision of songwriter Huy Tuan. The detail of the "FAITH" hat that the songwriter chose is the answer to his absolute trust in his protégé after more than a decade. Despite being mentioned in the comparisons and controversies, Hoa Minzy proudly shines, proving that her mentor's choice was absolutely correct.
