Phuong My Chi suspected of being bullied by Chinese judges, made a comeback that made fans breathe a sigh of relief

The news that Phuong My Chi is bringing Vietnamese culture to the international arena has attracted great attention from home. Recently, a clip about the voting session at Sing! Asia suddenly went viral, the incident that received attention was Phuong My Chi being blatantly bullied by the judges.

Right in the opening episode of Sing! Asia, Phuong My Chi created a "stormy" performance, affirming her talent and bravery in the international music arena. Despite facing suspicions of "blatant bullying" from the judges of her opponent's homeland, the "folk singer" had a spectacular "comeback" against the Chinese representative, but still caused the Vietnamese online community to "storm" with anger and unanimously demand justice for the female singer.

In the recent opening episode, Phuong My Chi brought to the Sing! Asia stage two impressive songs with contemporary folk sounds: "Buon Trang" and "Rock Hat Gao". The Vietnamese female singer's direct competitors in the competition night were Miyuna (Japan) and Chu Phi Ca (China), both of whom possess distinct voices and styles.

In the live competition with Miyuna, Phuong My Chi performed the energetic and enthusiastic "Rock Hat Gao". She received "winged" compliments from prestigious judges such as To Huu Bang and Truong Luong Dinh. Both praised Phuong My Chi's angelic voice, intense style and captivating enthusiasm. In the end, Phuong My Chi won a close victory over the "heavyweight" Miyuna. With 12 votes, she surpassed the Japanese contestant (11 votes), including an online judge who abstained because he could not choose a winner. This victory opened a favorable beginning for Phuong My Chi's journey at Sing! Asia.

However, the peak of attention and controversy that erupted across social media came from the dramatic musical battle between Phuong My Chi and Chu Phi Ca. Phuong My Chi chose the song "Buon Trang", a composition inspired by the poem "Day Thon Vi Da" by poet Han Mac Tu, to compete with the Chinese representative. Her performance was considered both traditional and modern, imbued with Vietnamese cultural identity, and received endless praise from the judges at the studio, especially To Huu Bang and Truong Luong Dinh.

Truong Leung Dinh shared: "The overall performance was great, including the music style and costumes that were truly outstanding. She wanted to take advantage of this stage to show everyone everything she wanted to say about her hometown culture." Meanwhile, "Fifth Prince" To Huu Bang commented: "The language barrier was not a problem in My Chi's performance. This was a performance full of freedom and power. Very rare."

However, it is worth noting that, although her performance was said to have overshadowed Chu Phi Ca, Phuong My Chi was actually considered to have been at a disadvantage in Sing! Asia. The reason was that she only received exactly 1 vote from the on-site judge – her senior Dan Truong. Meanwhile, despite giving "winged" compliments to Phuong My Chi, To Huu Bang and Truong Luong Dinh both surprisingly chose to vote for Chu Phi Ca – their fellow contestant.

The confusing "turnaround" of the two judges made the situation tense. However, Phuong My Chi had a surprising comeback against her Chinese opponent. In the online voting of judges from 21 different countries and territories in Asia, she received 15 votes, affirming her outstanding appeal and talent.

Immediately, Vietnamese netizens noticed something unusual. They thought that Truong Luong Dinh and To Huu Bang were not fair in judging. They praised Phuong My Chi on the surface, but in the end, they chose the Chinese contestant even though Chu Phi Ca was actually inferior to the Vietnamese representative. The evidence that Phuong My Chi performed better than Chu Phi Ca came from the fact that she had 15 online votes from the multinational judges.

According to fans, the fact that Cheung Leung Ying and Su You Peng - the direct judges - favored their fellow countrymen would be a huge disadvantage not only for Phuong My Chi but also many other international contestants in Sing! Asia. Therefore, many netizens expressed their disappointment, condemning the bias, unfair treatment and discrimination between Cheung Leung Ying and Su You Peng's contestants in the music show produced by Iqiyi.
