based on the first 3 legs, I am very adamant about saying this is the best TAR Vietnam thus far, and I hope it continues <3

I still like the first season the best. This season is much improved from the last year but it still lacks a lot of thing imo. And leg 4 is boring.

[Quốc Nghĩa]

My opinion: 1 > 4 (so far)> 2 > 3

I hate stupid money-making challenges with the high price from season 3 to season 4: Candy selling (season 2) > cake selling (season 1) > shoe shinning (season 4) > scaft selling and hat selling (season 3 - the worst)

About teams:
Faves: Orange, Brown, Yellow
Like: Purple, Green, Red
Meh: Blue
Dislike: Pink

Unless Google Translate is wrong, the Vietnamese Wikipedia is saying that the teammate not performing the Roadblock could not help the "mute" person find customers, yet every team did this.

Here is the text that supposedly says this:

Thành viên không thực hiện có thể giúp thành viên thực hiện Vượt rào t́m kiếm khách.

Did anyone find any full names? Isn't there an official contestants page somewhere?

The one who did the Roadblock is the mute one. They cannot talk anything to customers but polish the shoes. The other one needs to find customers. I think. I will check it again.
For the fullname, I don't have time to check yet but if we can find their facebook, we know the full-name.

I only know:
Red: Trần Nguyên Cát Vũ and Tạ Anh Đức
Yellow: Trương Nam Thành and Nguyễn Hải Băng

[G.B.]

"Members may not perform to help members perform search Roadblock guests." is Google Translate's incredibly helpful answer, lol.

My thought was that if this was a rule, then everyone would have broken it and it would have been pointless to give the same penalty to everyone so they just ignored it.

Haha, Red was the most important team name I needed because I'm making their page now, that's a good coincidence. Thanks man!

Laos: Plain of Jars, Pha That Luong, elephants. <3

[Maanca]

Laos? Is this a first visit for any Amazing Race?

[paradoxinee]

Thành viên không thực hiện có thể giúp thành viên thực hiện Vượt rào t́m kiếm khách.

--> Team members, who do not perform Roadblock, can help other members who perform Roadblock to find customers.

[Quốc Nghĩa]

Brown: Nguyễn Phạm Thùy Trang (Trang Pháp) & Nguyễn Bảo Trinh (Băng Di)
Green: Dương Hồng Thúc Lĩnh (Lincoln) & Trần Chí Thành
Purple: Nam Joo Young & Nguyễn Phương Ly
Orange: Trần Ngọc Anh & Đỗ Nhật Anh


Blue: Nguyễn Vũ Trúc Như
Pink: Phạm Ngô Đăng Hoàng

About Thùy Anh and Song Ngư, I can't find their full-names.

[paradoxinee]

I checked the cast of the recent Thùy Anh's movie. They listed her as Nguyễn Thùy Anh.

[G.B.]

Awesome, awesome, awesome. Having only one name missing is still a fantastic accomplishment. I really super-duper appreciate it.

There's no rush on the following, but the table also needs ages and hometowns whenever you have free time.

I see how Google Translate muddled up that sentence. Now it makes sense. I was totally expecting some crazy thing like for only one team  to do it right and rocket up to first place.

Hải Băng cries too much.

GB, please update the photo in the profile of the Red team this season. They are someone else, not Tim & Anh Đức.

[G.B.]

lol that's a better looking picture anyway.

[paradoxinee]

GB, the shoes shining roadblock, they had to shine at least 5 pairs of shoes or more. That's why Pink team earned 1 million VND with only first pair of shoes but they still shined another 4 pairs for free.

In English textbooks in Vietnam, "Văn Miếu" is called "Temple of Literature" (the full name is "Temper of Literature and Imperial Academy") not "Temple of Confucius" ("Temple of Confucius" is in China)
And "Rap Con Nhan" in TARUS22 is called "Workers' Theater".

[Quốc Nghĩa]

I hate money making challenges so much. Why is Vietnamese producer obsessed with them? If they got rid that stupid challenge, it would have been a great first amazing race leg in Laos.

[paradoxinee]

When I thought this season is getting better, it started to go down again.

Why did they let racers sell personal things to finish the task? It's unfair for teams who don't have expensive personal things like earring, watches...

[Quốc Nghĩa]

I read some informations about the Hoi An leg and they do the money-making task again. I don't know what are they thinking. I don't like the way they force contestants earn a huge amount of money or sell something with the high price. It's inappropriated.

[G.B.]

Did we ever get a name for the paper-making location?
