Handsome Western Man Got Rejected On Vietnamese Dating Show

I'm living in Vietnam for more than 3 years already. I love being here and I want to spend here more years and I hope you will be the reason why. George, I think today you're not the guy who I'm fighting tonight, sorry. So that happened on Nguoi La Ai, a very popular dating show in Vietnam. Don't judge, I'm sheltering in place these days. The format of the show is like this. Each episode features a new beautiful single girl. She then will be presented with 5 very handsome men. She will eliminate them one by one. And at the end of each episode, the last man standing gets to go out with this beautiful girl. This episode is special, it's the finale of the first season and the girl in this episode is actually a celebrity. So she's a singer, an actor, talk show host, MC and all kinds of stuff. She's basically a A-lister in the local entertainment industry. These are the 5 men for her. So these are the 5 men for her. The twist is that half of the guys are lying. So each of them is either single, lean, not single, red or gay, purple. If the girl ends up with a guy in the red or purple category, she goes home empty-handed and this does happen. So the entire idea of the show is around observing these very good-looking men's appearance, behavior, language and trying to figure out if they are single or not. And judging the other by their appearance is very fun. It's in our human nature to find that entertaining. So that's why the show is very successful so far. The fifth man is our guy, George. He's a westerner, this is very rare. He's from Spain. Let's take a look at his introduction video. The one. One year ago, I started to dedicate myself to my passion, that is singing. I'm singing now in some bands here, as well doing some acting and some modeling jobs. Right now, I want to dedicate more professionally. So I started to work with my friend, one of my best friends here, Wintai. She's also a singer and we are developing a new music project that is about mixing Vietnamese and Spanish music. So actually, you can see us in our YouTube channel, that is called Viet Banh A. Apart from that, I have another passion, that is food and wine. Modern Vietnam rock mode. But I still miss a lot of Spanish food. So right now, here in Vietnam, I usually go with my friends to drink some wine. I'm living in Vietnam for more than three years already. I love being here and I want to spend here more years. And I hope you will be the reason why. Alright, let's do some judging. He looks good. He's an engineer, or used to be. He shows off his cooking skills, singing, playing guitar. But to be honest, they are pretty mild. In the sense that they are done in very casual settings. Like cooking at home, practicing singing and guitar at home. And not performing in front of people on stage. So why is he interesting? They are not at the high value level. Relatively, what other guys usually show off is their successful professional career, their passion, or their body. He could have shown off his body. Now Vietnamese girls, I think some are like wild worshipping. It could be an advantage for him. But most require this tall white guy intimidating at him. So this casual down to earth vibe could balance him out. And it might have worked for him so far. But here we are dealing with a celebrity. It might backfire. Next, the panel will discuss and vote if they think the guy is green, red, or purple. And then the audience will also vote. So most of them think he's gay. The cooking singing isn't too manly. And he has good attention to details. This is the second round. And they're gonna recharge him. Now the panel thinks our guy is in the red carpet. Which means he's not available. This is because the guy who is eliminated in the first round is purple. So it looks like there's another one. And she picked our boy. He's doing a dance performance to reveal his category. He's in the green category. Which means he's not available or single. And it seems that everybody is shocked. Oh my god. You destroyed a man. Really? He come for you, baby. Oh, she thought that you have a wife. But you bring that feeling. Everybody can feel that. Because you're so warm. You're so tender. Why you don't look at me? He doesn't look at you because he's afraid of you. Yeah, I was afraid. Why? I don't know. You look very powerful. You're right. Because he won the Miss World. Now after we're talking, can you look at me? I took the look out, right? He's laughing because he's nervous. Maybe it could be better if he's less friendly. A little bit more assertive or dominant. Look at his heartbroken face. I'm gonna have a drink for our boy here. I'm gonna need this to get through this show. Too much cringe sometimes. She eliminated him because she thought he's not single. But that's actually not the reason why he failed. Meaning even if he knew he was single and he managed to get to the last round. She would not have picked him. Because he failed to make her feel attracted to him. Girls are usually attracted to guys who are good-looking, rich, successful, having high status, mainly confident, smart, clever, funny, etc. And surprisingly from what I see, girls sometimes don't respond well to strong affection. It's not like a TV show. Hey, I love you the most. I'm in love with you. I'm faithful. Please love me. Please fall in love with me. It's not like that in real life. Let's say a scenario you went to a friend's house. These days, the killer has a plow car for guys chasing after her. And this girl is a celebrity. Let's not forget that. George failed to light up that romantic spark. He could have showed off his professional career. He could have made his interest look cooler. He could have tried to be more confident. And it's easier said than done. He said that he felt intimidated by her. At the end, she picked someone who she had known that was likely not in the green category. This guy is like, hey, I'm cooler than the other guy. So his answer was mostly not like expressing his love for her, but about like, hey, I'm very ambitious. I'm very self-driven. And he wants to live his life to the fullest. For a girl who has many options and is exploring, and I guess the same for most of us, we are going to pick someone who we feel attracted to over someone who is attracted to us. One thing I forgot to say is that this is actually a transgender. Barcelona, my World Cup ticket. Oh my goodness. Can I ask you something? I'm a little worried about foreigners come to this show. They don't know about me. So what do you think if in the future, can you be in a relationship with a transgender woman? How do you think? I think transgender people is like, when they want to be a woman, they are already a woman. So I don't think it's a problem. But we can hang out someday. Don't worry.
