Frequently appearing in Quang Linh Vlogs' videos and livestreams, Lôi has become a familiar face to Vietnamese netizens.
If you know Quang Linh Vlogs, you probably know Lôi too. His real name is Mativado (4 years old), the son of Matiloi - a member of the African team.
In Quang Linh's videos, Lôi receives care and affection like a son from the YouTuber. Conversely, he is also very attached to Quang Linh, following him wherever he goes. On social media, the Vietnamese community affectionately gives Lôi humorous nicknames like TikTok idol, African sad boy,... It's not a coincidence that this African boy receives so much love from everyone.
The owner of vivid and humorous expressions
Like many other kids, Lôi has an adorable appearance and funny expressions. Every time he appears on screen with Uncle Linh, he makes people laugh with his amusing face.
One of the most viral moments on social media by Lôi is when he witnessed Thùy Tiên being crowned Miss Grand International 2021. The boy covered his mouth with both hands in astonishment. Earlier, Lôi also amused people when he bluntly refused a kiss on the cheek from the beauty queen.
Normally, Lôi often gets upset because Quang Linh teases him and sends him home. Every time this happens, the kid remains silent, choosing to ignore Uncle Linh.
The smart and talented boy loves singing Vietnamese songs.
Having been around Quang Linh and the African team members since childhood, Lôi understands and speaks Vietnamese very clearly.
The boy has repeatedly melted the hearts of Vietnamese fans by singing Vietnamese children's songs such as 'Bà ơi bà,' 'Cháu lên ba,' 'Con cò bé bé,' 'Rửa mặt như mèo,'... Not only that, Lôi confidently sets the rhythm and sings as a model for other little Angolan kids to follow.
During Miss Thùy Tiên's visit, Lôi 'performed' some wardrobe items for the Queen to hear. For her part, Thùy Tiên showed great affection for the clever and mischievous Lôi. The beauty queen also expressed her desire to meet this adorable boy again soon.

Small yet very understanding
Besides being adorable and cute, Lôi is also deeply loved and remarkably understanding despite his young age.
At just 4 years old this year, the boy has already shown affection and respect towards Quang Linh. On one occasion while he was eating cookies, Quang Linh approached to ask for one. Lôi didn't immediately give one, instead carefully selecting the most intact cookie to give to him, keeping the broken ones for himself.
During his time with Quang Linh, Lôi also assists the adults with various tasks. For instance, when he saw Uncle Linh wanting to set up stakes to mark the land, the boy quickly ran around to find dry branches and fetched a plastic bag for him.
Currently, Vietnamese netizens are eagerly anticipating Lôi's return to Vietnam for the Tet holiday as planned. Previously, Quang Linh revealed that he had completed the necessary procedures and obtained permission from Lôi's parents to bring the boy to Vietnam for Tet, accompanying him on some projects. However, in November, Quang Linh mentioned encountering some obstacles in the process of bringing Lôi back to Vietnam, so this plan is still uncertain.
