On all social networking platforms, Miss Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien's master's degree is facing scratches from the online community. Many opinions said that Thuy Tien may have confused about her certificate and master's degree.
In the image Thuy Tien posted on her personal page in June 2024, it was announced that she had completed a master's program in restaurant and hotel management with the school's name on the certificate as Swiss Hotel Management School (SHMS).
However, when announcing on her personal page, Thuy Tien wrote the school's name as SHMS University Center. This school is not found in the system of training schools in restaurant and hotel management in Switzerland.
Only one SHMS school is Swiss Hotel Management School (website https://www.shms.com). Many questions about Thuy Tien's major and learning method (online or in person) are being raised... The image of Thuy Tien's degree posted on her personal page is also being "questioned" whether it is a certificate or a master's degree...
Regarding these controversies, Lao Dong reporters sent an email to SHMS but have not received a response. Meanwhile, answering reporters about the controversial story of a master's degree, Miss Thuy Tien's management only said: "It is reasonable to grant Thuy Tien a master's degree".
The story happened at a time when Miss Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien was facing a media crisis after participating in a vegetable candy advertisement. In December 2024, Thuy Tien announced the launch of a vegetable candy product with the company of Quang Linh Vlogs and Hang Du Muc.
On her personal page with 2.6 million followers, Miss Thuy Tien often posts promotional articles and appears on livestreams selling this product.
In early 2025, Thuy Tien, along with 2 Tiktokers Quang Linh Vlogs and Hang Duoc, were discovered to have fake advertisements, exaggerating the functions of vegetable candy. On March 14, all 3 had a working session with the Department of Radio, Television and Electronic Information (Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism).
This week, the Department of Radio, Television and Electronic Information will issue a specific fine for the case of false advertising about Kera vegetable candy.
There is a coincidence that is being shared by the audience, before the vegetable and candy crisis escalated, Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien participated in the film "Chot mong" by 2 directors Nam Cito - Bao Nhan. The film revolves around the topic of online sales and the stories behind the livestreams of social media channels.
In the film, Thuy Tien plays Hoang Linh - a livestream sales war god. Director Bao Nhan said that films need to update hot topics, symbolizing the era they are living in.
However, the film "Choa don" which was scheduled to be released on March 7 has changed the schedule to June with the reason "it is in post-production".
Currently, the impact of Thuy Tien's real-life "livestream selling candy" is still causing her to face many scandals. If the noise continues to spread and the crisis escalates, the film project "Challenge" may be affected by Thuy Tien's single decisions in the Kera candy crop.
