Many criticized her on social media, accusing her of thoughtlessly belittling another country's people, and some even stated that she is unworthy of continuing in the entertainment industry.

In addition to the critical comments, a Vietnamese woman also responded to Noyee with a TikTok video, stating bluntly that Noyee should not make jokes about Vietnamese people, and said, "We have hands and feet and can work by ourselves, so why should we rely on men?" This response garnered wide attention and support online.

Facing the angry responses, Noyee released a 4-minute video on her social media account to publicly apologize. She stated that she harbored no ill intentions and explained that the words in the video did not represent her true intent, clarifying that she was merely expressing humorously and not deliberately insulting Vietnamese people.
