Bella Q (Phan Thi Phuong Uyen), also known as Bella, is a lover that Karik publicly announced. She has a doll-like face and is one of the hot girls of Sai Thanh. Bella is also the girl Karik gave her many affectionate words for.
In October 2020, in episode 11 of Rap Viet, when MC Tran Thanh said that Karik "doesn't understand anything about men", Karik immediately replied: "I don't need to understand men, I just need to understand women. I don't need to know many women, I know that one person at home is enough". At the end of the sentence, the studio lens turned towards Bella in the seats of the audience who were laughing brightly.
In August 2020, Karik posted a affectionate photo with Bella with a sweet English caption, translating People say your life wont be wasted when at least one person cares about you. When everything is getting so bad that I want to give up, remember that you always have me by your side.
At the end of 2020, the two deleted each other's photos, then appeared together in a behind-the-scenes show. Although they had known each other for a long time before dating, their relationship did not last long. In an interview, Karik implicitly admitted to having broken up.
In addition, Karik was suspected of dating many other famous beauties.
In 2018, Karik attracted attention when he admitted that Miu Le was the type of girl he liked, and affirmed that Miu Le was a very special girl to him. The couple starred in the movie "Chiem Duong" together, collaborating in the MV "For Your Mother, I'll break up".

Karik always paid special attention to Lan Ngoc, while she was confused every time she faced him. Both have repeatedly shown understanding and understanding in the challenges.
In November 2021, Quynh Luong attracted attention when she publicly posted a dating photo with her boyfriend and it is worth mentioning that the image behind the man in the photo is said to be quite similar to rapper Karik. However, Karik and Quynh Luong both denied it.
When asked about his ideal girlfriend, Karik once shared: I dont have any specific girlfriend models. Before, I set a model for the other person, but in reality, I always pay attention to the people who are completely opposite. I currently believe in two letters of fate rather than some model.
