What happens

The Face Vietnam (Vietnamese: Gương mặt thương hiệu in season 1–2 or Gương mặt Người mẫu Việt Nam in season 3–4) is a Vietnamese modeling–themed reality television series, based on the US television series of the same name, and one of several national editions in the international The Face franchise. The show is where coaches, often famous models and actors, compete to find "the face" for brands, through modeling and advertising challenges. In The Face, only the Vietnamese version includes both male and female contestants in the same season, unlike the U.S., U.K., and Australian versions which only feature female contestants, and the Thai version which separates male and female contestants. Vietnam has a long-standing tradition and a less open fashion industry. The resounding success of The Face in Vietnam has led to the creation of many copycat programs without official licensing.
