Will the Audience Remember Tân Binh Toàn Năng?

After just five episodes, audiences are showing high expectations that the debut group from the show will create an impact in Vietnam’s music industry and possibly on the international idol stage.

The hype keeps rising, with audiences actively discussing Tân Binh Toàn Năng after every episode

Following the success of Anh Trai Vượt Ngàn Chông Gai and Chị Đẹp Đạp Gió Rẽ Sóng, YeaH1 continues to prove its expertise in entertainment production. Although Tân Binh Toàn Năng marks YeaH1’s first survival show, the production has been carefully crafted from scripting and stage design to training models, image building, and communications for the trainees.

With support from YeaH1’s existing entertainment ecosystem, the show has reached a wide audience even with a cast of entirely new faces. It has also attracted fans of K-pop and C-pop who are now turning their attention to local Vietnamese talents.

Despite being a new show format in Vietnam, the freshness of the concept has sparked curiosity. With 5 episodes released, viewership on YouTube continues to rise evidence of the show’s appeal and growing anticipation from the audience.

New milestone for Tân Binh Toàn Năng – Giai đoạn sống còn after the broadcast of episode 5 (May 18, 2025)

Discussions on platforms like Facebook, TikTok, and Threads have been increasingly active after each episode. Viewers are sharing opinions not only about the show’s developments but also about each individual trainee’s performance and personality. According to statistics from YouNet Media, episode 5 of Tân Binh Toàn Năng – Survival Phase ranked as the most discussed entertainment program of the past week (May 13–19, 2025), surpassing a lineup of major shows featuring well-known artists. Previously, the show maintained an impressive streak, consistently ranking in the top 1 and top 2 TV shows on the charts measured by YouNet Media.

Fan communities are gradually being formed

As the show progresses, more and more viewers are connecting with the contestants' skills and personalities. This has led to the birth of individual fandoms. Fan pages, community groups, blogs, and TikTok accounts supporting each trainee have emerged, creating a dynamic fan culture around the show.

The Top 30 trainees of Tân Binh Toàn Năng have been given opportunities by the producers to appear at major public events, leaving a strong impression on the audience.

In any survival show or idol-centered format, strong fan communities are essential. For the trainees of Tân Binh Toàn Năng, these supporters offer crucial emotional encouragement, especially as most contestants are new faces in the entertainment world.

The formation and growth of these fandoms highlight not only the potential of the trainees but also their chances of establishing a solid presence in the entertainment industry. This is exactly the kind of momentum the producers hope to nurture, not just for the trainees, but for the entire creative team behind the program.

A training model that is completely different from other "survival shows"

Tân Binh Toàn Năng is structured into two stages. The first phase called the Survival Phase, focuses on training and selecting the most outstanding trainees to form a well-rounded idol group. In the second phase, also titled Tân Binh Toàn Năng, the newly formed group will take part in challenges alongside international idol groups. This aims to improve their skills and raise the overall standard of performance.

During the Survival Phase, trainees have only 100 days to train and prove themselves to the producers, coaches, and audience. They must show that they deserve to debut in the final group. This is a demanding journey that requires tremendous effort and serves as a springboard for their future careers.

The trainees are not fully skilled from the beginning. They are in the process of growing and improving themselves to become true "Tân Binh Toàn Năng." The training model applied in the show is designed to support that development.

The producers do not expect the audience to view the trainees purely as idols. Instead, they hope that viewers will support them as young people who are working hard to pursue their dreams. The term "survival show" refers to the selection process used to find the most suitable members for the group. It does not mean the trainees must compete aggressively or defeat each other to remain on the show.

Alongside the main series, which focuses on key events in the first phase, there is also a companion series called 100 Ngày Thăng Cấp. This series follows the trainees more closely and gives the audience a clearer view of their daily lives, behind-the-scenes stories, and the emotional struggles they face during training.

Throughout Tân Binh Toàn Năng – Survival Phase, the presence of various coaches during training and judges during evaluation rounds offers a more objective perspective when assessing each trainee. These evaluations are based on performance rather than scripted outcomes.

So far, only one-fourth of the 100-day journey has passed. Four evaluations have taken place. The roles of the three All-Round Producers: Tóc Tiên, SOOBIN, and Kay Trần are still unclear. Their involvement remains a topic of discussion among viewers. This may be part of a unique plan that the production team is carefully keeping hidden.

In the second phase of Tân Binh Toàn Năng, the debut group will have the opportunity to engage directly with idol groups that have been trained internationally. This creates a valuable chance for Vietnam’s idol training model to connect with and learn from training systems in countries where idol culture is already well-established. It marks a meaningful step forward for the Vietnamese entertainment industry.

The growth of Vietnam’s entertainment industry

Over the past year, Vietnam’s music scene has experienced a powerful resurgence through high-profile television shows such as Anh Trai Vượt Ngàn Chông Gai and Chị Đẹp Đạp Gió Rẽ Sóng. A wave of new songs, performances, stages, and concerts has emerged with impressive production quality and strong community-oriented messages.

Music lovers are once again immersed in what feels like a golden era of Vietnamese entertainment. They are reconnecting with traditional cultural values while embracing contemporary influences. This revival brings a sense of pride and joy to audiences, especially after a period when the local music industry seemed to slow down due to a lack of major breakthroughs.

The launch of Tân Binh Toàn Năng and the appearance of a new generation of Vietnamese idol trainees reflect both the producers’ and the public’s hopes for the future. These young talents are expected to carry forward the positive legacy left by previous generations.

In conclusion, Tân Binh Toàn Năng, as a program and as a platform for its individual trainees, still has a long journey ahead. For now, the show continues to follow the direction originally set out by its producers. It is gaining increasing support from viewers and promises even more drama, compelling developments, and emotional stories in the episodes to come.
