The winner, if he continues to challenge and wins 4 consecutive numbers of King of Vietnamese, will receive a prize of 320 million VND. Artist Xuan Bac continues to host season 3.

Will season 3 of King of Vietnamese have fewer flaws?

King of Vietnamese is a rare game show that exploits Vietnamese.

Thereby, helping players and TV viewers to understand and learn more about how to use Vietnamese more correctly and clearly.

Introducing King of Vietnamese season 3

However, looking back at the journey of seasons 1 and 2, it can be seen that the audience and linguists still "picked up" quite a few mistakes in King of Vietnamese .

For example, King of Vietnamese sometimes has answers with misspellings: "Xoa lua" is written incorrectly as "xoa lua", "cham lat" is written as "cham lat".

The game show made a mistake when it asserted that the word "lang lồ" has no meaning, it is just a misspelling of "loang lồ", while "lang lồ" and "loang lồ" are two words with similar meanings.

In another episode, the contestant had to choose between "dùm dó" or "rùm ró". The correct answer was "rùm ró". However, "dùm dó" is not misspelled.

In addition, the advisory board's explanation of "fake it until it's real" is also incorrect.

Through the above errors, the audience hopes that the producer needs to be more careful when giving questions and answers.

At the same time, many people think that the title of King of Vietnamese given to the winner is too great for a TV game show.

The final round of King of Vietnamese no longer writes poems or finds words

According to the announcement of the organizers, season 3 of King of Vietnamese still goes through four rounds: reflex, interpretation, chaining and usurpation.

The first three rounds did not change much. In the usurpation round, the gameplay was completely new.

If in season 1 contestants wrote poems, in season 2 contestants searched for single and compound words, then in season 3, the finalists will go through three challenges of finding horizontal and vertical words according to the program's theme.

The player who wins round 4 is crowned "king".

To maintain their throne, they need to challenge the winners of the next episodes.

The winner and holder of the throne for four consecutive numbers will receive a prize of up to 320 million VND.

Associate Professor Dr. Pham Van Tinh - one of the advisors - explained in the program: "Crossword games are very popular in the world.

Vietnam has applied it in many teaching and playing situations. Round 4 is difficult, 15 seconds to find the answer for a row is very challenging for players".

Poet Lu Mai - advisor of the program King of Vietnamese - said: "Multi-dimensional feedback is a valuable asset that the audience brings.

We have many things to add, many things we need to reflect on, need to think more, longer and wider so that our Vietnamese language capital can be preserved and spread more widely."
