On the evening of February 25, social networks were stirred up after TikToker Pham Thoai livestreamed a statement of the amount of 16.7 billion VND received to support the mother and babyap to get treatment.
During the livestream, the number of views at times reached nearly 300,000 people. Pham Thoai publicly announced the invoices of a hospital in Singapore - where babyap is being treated, with data on the time of receiving, withdrawing money, and expenses in the past 3 months.
However, this person is still criticized all over social networks because the statement making process has many unusual points, such as the amount of 1.8 billion VND for air tickets, booking translators and supporting sales for Mrs. Ba; the amount of 2 billion VND for Mrs. Ba to pay off the debt to build a house.
TikToker even shared about his experience in the province, not immediately transferring 1.5 billion VND to babyap's mother, so the baby's mother supported herself first and waited for him to send it back later.
The name Pham Thoai once again became a hot keyword searched for, with sky-high number of live views and donations (sponsorship of money via livestream).
Pham Thoai's real name is Pham Van Thoai, using TikTok's name is Norin Pham, born in 1996. The famous TikToker graduated from Hanoi University of Mining and pursued a career as a short content and video player.
From a KOL (online influencer) who earned money from short view streams and advertising contracts, Pham Thoai started livestreaming to sell products.
In the livestream session in early January 2023, Pham Thoai set a record with 3 million views, 22 million likes and nearly 50,000 orders in 12 hours. Livestream sales have become one of the huge sources of income for Pham Thoai and his crew, with billion-dong live sessions called "mega live".
In April 2024, Pham Thoai "gained money" by livestreaming to sell products when having a live session with a revenue of 2 million USD (about 50 billion VND).
Pham Thoai has 6.2 million followers on TikTok. There was a time when TikToker 9X was criticized for constantly cursing, using vulgar and accursory words while livestreaming. Many audiences called for a boycott because Pham Thoai was announced, offensive, and disrespectful to viewers.
However, controversy also helped Pham Thoai's name spread, attracting many people to watch livestreams. After that, Pham Thoai realized his mistake and proactively changed towards a more positive direction.
After "eating well and working" with TikTok, Pham Thaoi built a spacious, modern house for her mother in her hometown, buying many luxurious items and equipment to improve the quality of life for the family.
Once, Pham Thoai publicly announced the sales performance of her own fashion shop with an income of over 1 billion VND/month. Pham Thoai also regularly shops expensive branded items from major fashion brands around the world.
Last year, Pham Thoai also appeared as a coach in the livestream program selling Ngoi Sao Chot Don.
