Team member Trang Phap speaks out after elimination, revealing shocking truth.

On the evening of April 11th, Trang Phap's team's first performance at the "Riding the Wind 2026" program unexpectedly became the focus of controversy on social media. Despite delivering a highly-rated performance, the final result left many viewers confused.

During the competition night, Trang Phap's team chose the song "The Great Artist" to perform. Their performance impressed with its combination of modern musical elements and creative stage style. Both the live audience and netizens praised the consistent performance of all three members. However, the results were surprising, as Trang Phap's team only received 824 points and had to accept defeat against Ly Tieu Nhiem's ​​team – a team many considered to have delivered a less-than-outstanding performance.

Having lost, Trang Phap was forced to enter the team member protection round alongside Tieu Tuong. The two artists performed the song "It's You" in the decisive battle. In the end, Tieu Tuong won 472 votes, slightly more than Trang Phap's 437 votes. This meant Trang Phap's team had to eliminate one member, and Duy Nina became the first "beautiful lady" to leave the competition.

Right on stage, the members of Trang Phap's team couldn't hide their surprise and regret. Duy Nina was so moved that she burst into tears as she shared: "I don't know what the standards are on this stage. I did my best, but I don't understand why...". Her choked confession made the atmosphere silent. Trang Phap and Giang Ngu Than continuously comforted their teammate, and the three hugged each other in tears before Duy Nina officially left the program.

After the episode ended, many viewers expressed their regret for Duy Nina. On her personal page, Duy Nina also posted a long letter to her fans and teammates. She shared that her short journey on the "Riding the Wind" show was like an unfinished dream.

"Just over a week has felt like an unfinished dream to me. Thank you everyone for supporting Duy Nina, thank you to the 'Little Flower' fans at the scene who voted for me, and thank you to all the friends who always cheered me on, acknowledged me, and introduced me online. Competitions have winners and losers, but our lives never end. Now, Nina, like an eagle, will continue to spread her wings and soar freely," Duy Nina wrote.

On her part, Trang Phap also quickly posted on her Weibo account to thank her teammate. She expressed her appreciation for Duy Nina and emphasized her indispensable role in the team. "Nina, you are truly an amazing person, thank you for accompanying me from the very beginning of this journey. To me, you are the energy ball of our team. We will see each other again soon, I love you all," Trang Phap shared.

Currently, the incident has not only sparked discussion among viewers, raising suspicions of rigged results, but has also made the "older sisters" on the winning team the center of controversy. Many netizens pointed out moments where they appeared indifferent and uncaring while their teammates were performing. Debates surrounding fairness and the cast's attitude have caused keywords related to the show to quickly climb to the top of Weibo's search rankings.
