The First Post of Tien Nguyen After the Arrest of Quang Linh Vlogs and Hang Du Muc in the KERA Case

After months of silence on social media, Tiến Nguyễn (real name Nguyễn Văn Tiến, born 1986) has shared a post reposting a clip of Nguyễn Nam Hoàng – Quang Linh Vlogs’ brother-in-law and a team member – selling shirts.

Along with the clip, Tiến Nguyễn shared four encouraging words: “Keep going, little brother.”

This unexpected move by Tiến Nguyễn quickly attracted the attention of netizens. After Quang Linh Vlogs and Hằng Du Mục were arrested and detained on April 4 for “Producing Fake Food Products” and “Deceiving Customers”, there has been no further information about Tiến Nguyễn – a member of the Châu Phi team and a close associate of Quang Linh Vlogs.

Since the end of February, Tiến Nguyễn has been inactive on his personal social media platforms until today. Prior to this, he would occasionally respond to birthday wishes from friends on social media or interact through comments on posts by team members like Nguyễn Nam Hoàng, Quang Linh’s brother-in-law.

On YouTube, Tiến Nguyễn hasn’t uploaded any new videos to his channel, Nguyễn Tiến – Cuộc Sống ở Châu Phi, since August 2024. His TikTok account, with nearly 1 million followers, hasn’t had any new clips since the end of February.

Therefore, this repost and message of encouragement are considered his latest and rarest activities as a member of the Quang Linh Vlogs team.

In the comment section, netizens flooded the post with questions about Tiến Nguyễn’s current situation and when he would return to social media. However, he has not responded to any of the comments. Nonetheless, his latest activity indicates that he remains close to the team members.

Many people are curious about Tiến Nguyễn’s role and responsibilities in promoting and distributing the vegetable candy products. While he is not a shareholder in Chị Em Rọt Joint Stock Company, he is one of the four familiar faces who frequently appeared in live streams selling KERA vegetable candy alongside Quang Linh Vlogs, Hằng Du Mục, and Nguyễn Thúc Thùy Tiên.

Tiến Nguyễn’s consistent and prominent presence in marketing activities, especially on social media platforms, is notable. During the live streams (including those selling KERA vegetable candy), he actively participated by tasting the products and acting out skits to illustrate the candy’s effects.

In promotional videos shot at a farm in Lâm Đồng and a factory in Đắk Lắk, Tiến Nguyễn was one of the four main characters. This raises questions about his actual role and responsibilities in the KERA vegetable candy incident, which remain unanswered.

Furthermore, Tiến Nguyễn has been closely associated with Quang Linh Vlogs since their time in Africa and has continued to collaborate with them upon their return to Vietnam for live stream sales. He also holds the position of General Director and legal representative of Quang Linh Global Joint Stock Company, which is part of the business ecosystem related to Quang Linh Vlogs.

Quang Linh Global was granted a business license on January 12, 2024, and is headquartered at Hồ Gươm Plaza, Hà Đông, Hanoi. Their main business line is the retail of drugs, medical equipment, cosmetics, and sanitary products in specialized stores.

According to the official website and fan page, the company sells shampoo, bath gel, and conditioner for men under the Quang Linh Global brand. However, the brand does not mention any production information, only stating: “Quang Linh Global is a personal care brand for every home, developed and accompanied by vloggers Quang Linh and Tiến Nguyễn, distributed by Quang Linh Global.”

As of June 15, 2025, the website quanglinhglobal.com is inaccessible.
