The four mentors appear in the introduction video. The judges for Vietnam's Next Top Model: Thanh Hằng and show host Nam Trung with new mentor Võ Hoàng Yến. Minh Hằng (replacing Hồ Ngọc Hà after the controversy surrounding her in season 2). After three months of casting, thirty-five models passed to the pick-team round. The mentors' personalities were revealed in the pick-team ring. Hoàng Yến was cast as an evil girl, in contrast to Minh Hang who was sweet. Thanh Hằng seemed to be a calm and decisive leader. Fifteen models entered the model's house.

Episode 2

First aired 14 October 2018

In this episode, the 15 models faced a mini-challenge from host Nam Trung, who have to run to dispute the rooms. Later, they meet Minh Hang at the master class about spoken skills inspired by the speech. Thanh Long was a convincing winner.

The models had to make a video with black-and-white articles of clothing in this challenge's main theme "The Golden Has Returned". Three mentors were in extreme conflict. Mrs. Thiên Hương - who represented Her World magazine, chose team Thanh Hằng. Minh Hằng and Hoàng Yến decided to gamble by putting Thanh Long and Huy Quang, their team's strongest member respectively, up for elimination. This shocked Thanh Hằng because both of them were acquainted with her prior to the show. In the end, Huy Quang had to leave the competition, leading Hoàng Yến to be loud with Thanh Hằng and she declared a war.

Episode 3

[edit]

First aired 21 October 2018

14 contestants moved to CITIGYM and they had a lesson in body liberation with music under Hoàng Yến's guidance. They learned 3 dancing styles: Hip-hop, Strong by Zumba, and Sexy dance. Tuyết Như, Xuân Phúc and Mid balanced the score of the teams. Tuấn Kiệt won the final victory for team Hoàng Yến.

They took part in a promotion video for CITIGYM. Hoàng Yến was defeated with the weakest performance by her contestants. Thảo Quân chose team Minh Hằng to win, while the other two teams showed a disapproving attitude because Thảo Quân used to be the representative for this brand. In the black room, Brian and Trung Kiên landed in the bottom two. Minh Hằng organized a dancing challenge. In the end, she gave Trung Kiên a chance to change in upcoming challenges and eliminated Brian for being the weakest member of Hoàng Yến's team. Hoàng Yến was not unexpected, she would like to change the show into "The Bè Lũ"!

Episode 4

[edit]

First aired 28 October 2018

13 contestants were taken to Vietnam's shopping center - ROBINS. They wore Mix-and-Match with different outfits by mentor Thanh Hằng. At the challenge, one member of each team had to choose a style such as: Street style, Sporty, Office, Rock and Glamour. Only team Hoàng Yến had fewer contestants among three teams, so Hoàng Yến's models would do more than once. Tuyết Như was criticized for her disrespectful attitude by the judges. Xuân Phúc, Như Mỹ and Trung Kiên, Linh Chi added one point for team Minh Hằng and Thanh Hằng. Lệ Nam received the final victory

Three teams had to take part in a video for MAC Cosmetics on a turning table tagged in a sidestep with the camera hung in the air. The video required them to use their dancing skills, without speaking. After two weeks, Hoàng Yến suddenly won the first victory, before saying she would send Tuyết Như into the elimination room in the upcoming episodes due to her poor attitude. Although they were not the worst members of their teams, Xuân Phúc (who volunteered) and Linh Chi (who did not volunteer) went up for elimination. Hoàng Yến then eliminated Xuân Phúc from the competition.

Episode 5

First aired 4 November 2018

Minh Hằng once again held a master class on acting skills. She taught about eye contact. At this challenge, the models have to pose covering their eyes in an artificial forest. Linh Chi won the challenge.

12 contestants had to make a video of a Rohto's "Because The Eyes Are Priceless" poster. Team Hoàng Yến won the challenge for a second time in a row. Minh Hằng nominated Như Mỹ for elimination. However, she immediately left the show's studio after learning that Thanh Hằng discovered Như Mỹ went into the elimination room through a main gate from above. This led to Thanh Hằng nominating Mid, much to Linh Chi's dismay, as she felt Trung Kiên deserved to be nominated rather than Mid. In the elimination room, Hoàng Yến gave Mid a chance to stay by telling him to convince Thanh Hằng to rethink and change her nomination. Since Mid denied to do so, he was automatically eliminated, although Hoàng Yến acknowledged that he had potential. After Mid's elimination, Thanh Hằng warned Trung Kiên that if he did not perform better in the upcoming challenges, he would be sent into the elimination room.
