5 Vietnamese TikTok Accounts To Follow — Depending On Your Passion

TikTok is without a doubt the fastest–growing social networking platform of today. With millions of short-form videos that are hilariously addictive, It’s easy to understand why one could (accidentally) spend hours on the app.

Vietnam, where 97% of the population has a mobile phone, has likewise fallen victim to the Tiktok craze too. Data analysis revealed that there are more than 12 million active users and 1,000 content creators based in Vietnam, and estimated that Vietnamese users spend an average of 28 minutes per day on the platform. According to a survey by Decision Lab, among internet users conducted in Vietnam in the second quarter of 2021, the share of TikTok users among Generation Z reached 56 percent. By comparison, around 32 percent of internet users in this age group used TikTok in the first quarter of 2020.

The app, built for virality, has not only helped already-famous celebrities to connect with their fans in a new and singular way, but has also catapulted relatively unknown people and groups into instant stardom for their entertaining, educational and inspiring video content.

Here we listed five of the most popular Vietnamese TikTok accounts right now. Give them a follow and you’ll get a dose of curated and original content every day.
