The Korean guy who was paired with Bui Khanh Linh in the show Paradise Island, Cheon Minuk, also brought flowers to the airport to welcome her back.

Before that, when Bui Khanh Linh was preparing her outfit to go to Egypt to compete in the Miss Intercontinental contest, Minuk also appeared to pack her things. The Korean guy also brought a bouquet of roses to the airport to see Khanh Linh off to the beauty pageant.

During the final night of Miss Intercontinental 2024, although Cheon Minuk could not go to Egypt to directly cheer for Bui Khanh Linh, he still made a remarkable move on social media. On his personal page, Cheon Minuk posted a clip recording the process of watching Bui Khanh Linh compete live in the final round of Miss Intercontinental 2024 and sent a message of encouragement to the beauty. When there was suspicion that someone was impersonating Cheon Minuk to send a message to Bui Khanh Linh, he affirmed that he was "the real thing" to reassure netizens.

At the end of the dating show Paradise Island, Bui Khanh Linh and Cheon Minuk became a couple. In the final episode, Minuk confessed his feelings to his girlfriend: 'You are a runner-up and I know that responsibility. You have a lot of obligations. Now I am really serious. I feel like I really love you'.

Talking about their relationship after the reality show, Bui Khanh Linh said that she and Cheon Minuk kept in touch and talked regularly. On every important occasion of hers, the male MC was there to congratulate and encourage her. In her eyes, Minuk is a very cute guy.

She believes that no matter what their relationship is in the future, they will still respect each other. 'I hope everyone will still support our relationship,' she said. Cheon Minuk was born in 1996, from Busan, South Korea. He is currently a host and announcer.

In the final round of Miss Intercontinental 2024 on December 7, Bui Khanh Linh was named as the third runner-up and the subsidiary title of Miss Intercontinental Asia - Oceania. Bui Khanh Linh's third runner-up title helps Vietnam extend its streak of achievements at the Miss Intercontinental pageant, following Miss Bao Ngoc (2022) and second runner-up Ngoc Hang (2023).

In the final, Bui Khanh Linh had confident and energetic performances. In the question and answer session to continue to find the owner of the crown, the Vietnamese representative received the question: "What qualities does Miss Intercontinental need?"

The beauty said in English: "I am very honored to be standing here today in the top 7 of Miss Intercontinental 2024. First of all, Miss Intercontinental must be a beautiful person, followed by a warm heart and a spirit of learning.
