The girl also shared intriguing insights about the mountainous rapper.

Bamboo dance brought to the stage of Rap Viet
And due to this attention, the girl in ethnic attire, dancing alongside Double2T, quickly caught the online community's 'radar.' She is Pham Hoang Kim Dung (born in 1997, from Dong Nai) - a dancer from the Bước Nhảy dance troupe. She possesses a lovely face, balanced physique, and an ideal height of 1m70.
Contacting Kim Dung, the female dancer shares her experience working with Double2T: 'During the first rehearsal, when I first met him, he seemed quite reserved. During training, he was very focused, impressing me with how quickly he memorized the choreography. Additionally, Double2T is friendly, cheerful, and polite with everyone around him.'
Despite training and performing for only a few days, Kim Dung also has memorable moments with Double2T: 'When I first met him, he seemed quite young, so I assumed we were of similar age or he was younger. I casually addressed him as 'you' - it felt very natural. It wasn't until the day of the shoot, when people talked more, that I found out he's over a year older. I was genuinely surprised'.

Regarding the audience's enthusiastic response to Double2T's performance and unique bamboo dance, Kim Dung wasn't overly surprised as she also enjoys this act.
'I've been looking forward to the airing of this episode to rewatch and really liked the bamboo dance segment. The dance is very charming, introducing the ethnic culture to everyone. Before the performance and filming of the act, I felt very comfortable. Both the music and Double2T's rap were good, so our job was to give the audience the best, perfect performance' - Kim Dung shared.
Revealing more, Kim Dung is not a stranger to the show as she appeared in season 1. Back then, Kim Dung was the girl holding the name tag of the contestants in the face-off round, earning her the special nickname 'the girl in the green shirt.'
Currently, in addition to her role as a dancer, Kim Dung is participating in Miss Grand Vietnam 2023, competing for the title of Miss Grand Vietnam. She's classified as a potential contestant due to her physical advantages and dance abilities.
