Truong Quynh Mai is a famous beauty in Hanoi in the 90s. She is also a first generation Vietnamese flight attendant with many admirable talents. However, she chooses a simple lifestyle, away from the glory of showbiz.

Recently, a clip recording the performance of a beauty representing Vietnam at the 1995 Miss International contest suddenly caused a storm on social networks.

That's because this beauty not only possesses outstanding beauty and perfect figure. It is known that this is the beauty Truong Quynh Mai - runner-up of the "Miss Interline Beauty Pageant - Miss Aviation Asia" contest held in Hong Kong (China).

Who is Truong Quynh Mai?

Truong Quynh Mai is a Hanoi beauty born in 1974 in Hanoi. She was born and raised in a basic intellectual family.

Father Quynh Mai has a PhD in engineering, studied abroad in Poland and worked for many years in the shipbuilding industry.

Her mother is also a mechanical engineer, who was a student of her father. Her younger brother also received a scholarship from Japan and is currently an excellent person in the field of information technology.

During high school, Truong Quynh Mai was a student in the Biology class at Amsterdam School for the Gifted, Hanoi.

After that, she studied in the second year of Hanoi Medical University and then transferred to study at Ho Chi Minh City University because her family moved to Ho Chi Minh City. Right from school, the beauty named Truong has possessed outstanding beauty and physique.

Always a top student in the class, the surprising thing was that she decided to quit halfway through. The beauty stopped studying to become an official flight attendant for Vietnam Airlines.

Not only is she a flight attendant, she also has goals in beauty contests. Specifically, in 1994, Truong Quynh Mai participated in the "Miss Interline Beauty Pageant - Miss Aviation Asia" held in Hong Kong (China) and was unexpectedly crowned runner-up.

When returning home, Truong Quynh Mai tried her hand at modeling. In the fashion industry, she is evaluated for her beauty and talent.

Quynh Mai possesses natural beauty, a modern and impressive Asian face with big round eyes, straight nose, seductive lips and a lovely smile.

Quynh Mai's physical beauty is also highly appreciated with her high neck, long legs and slim figure. She is considered one of the few veteran Vietnamese models who fully meets the standards of international models.

Not stopping at Miss Aviation, in 1995, Truong Quynh Mai represented the country in the "Miss International" contest.

At the most prestigious and oldest beauty contest on the planet, she was considered a valuable candidate right from the first activities. In the final night, when she was just 21 years old, she unexpectedly won the "Best National Costume" award and reached the Top 15 finals.

As of 2017, Vietnam had 14 beauties participating in the "Miss International" contest. But besides Thuy Van "surpassing" her seniors to win 3rd runner-up in 2015 and Truc Diem reaching the Top 15 in 2011, no one has had a secondary prize and achievements like Truong Quynh Mai.

How is life now?

Truong Quynh Mai is a persistent girl who always has a clear life goal. So when she took the exam with little luggage, she still always shined in the eyes of her international friends. Talking about the will of the beauty named Truong, a friend of hers said that when she participated in the "Miss International" contest, her luggage was very simple. Truong Quynh Mai only has 3 official outfits and most of them are... borrowed clothes.

In addition to the traditional blue ao dai with outstanding patterns, Truong Quynh Mai borrowed a long black dress from her close friend and borrowed a swimsuit from an acquaintance.

Participating in the contest with the most relaxed spirit, after winning the prize, Truong Quynh Mai did not take photos, did not answer the press and returned to a simple, less noisy life.

According to many sources, since holding the secondary prize and the Top 15 "Miss International" achievement, Truong Quynh Mai has been aware of the vanity of the beauty title. Later, she went to Australia to study communications and is currently holding a master's degree in finance, living with her family in Melbourne, Australia.

Currently, because she has been away from the entertainment industry for many years, Truong Quynh Mai does not update anything about her daily life. Like many beauties who "disappeared" from the glamorous world of showbiz, Truong Quynh Mai chose silence and peace.

It can be said that there are few Vietnamese beauties who combine both external beauty and knowledge like Quynh Mai. As someone who achieved success early, Quynh Mai is very independent and has a strong personality. She currently lives with her two sons in Melbourne.

It can be seen that, with their intelligence and beauty, many Vietnamese aviation beauties have achieved many achievements both domestically and internationally.

Accordingly, in addition to Quynh Mai, Dam Luu Ly was also an aviation beauty at one time.

In 1994, Dam Luu Ly registered to participate in Tien Phong newspaper's Miss Nation (predecessor of Miss Vietnam). She achieved Top 5 final results and 1st runner-up in the Northern provinces along with the additional prize for the contestant with the most beautiful smile.

A year later, Vietnam Airlines Corporation sent Dam Luu Ly to participate in Miss Ao Dai 1995 and this time she was crowned the highest winner.
