Đình Bắc wins WeChoice 2025: 'The Brave Generation' thrills fans

Đình Bắc was honored by the community at the WeChoice Awards 2025, marking a milestone that recognizes his courageous journey and the moments that moved the audience deeply.

On the evening of February 7, the WeChoice Awards 2025 gala took place with the theme “Continuing the Vietnamese story” held in an atmosphere full of emotion. Nguyễn Đình Bắc was among the 10 Inspirational Figures of the Year chosen by the community. This recognition came after a series of explosive performances at the U23 Asian Championship, highlighting the positive influence of the 2004-born striker on young fans.

Appearing on stage to receive the award, Đình Bắc impressed with his approachable demeanor. When invited to reenact his famous celebration, the young forward performed a solemn and proud hand salute amid the audience’s applause. He shared: "Regarding that celebration moment, I prefer to keep it private. I believe I will repeat that moment many times throughout my career. Thank you."

The interaction between Đình Bắc and MC Khánh Vy created a special atmosphere as both spoke in the Nghệ An accent. This close connection made Đình Bắc’s image more relatable, embodying the spirit of WeChoice — honoring individuals who inspire through their journey of effort and kindness. Besides the 10 Inspirational Figures, the gala also celebrated Inspirational Ambassadors and outstanding community projects.

In the introduction by the WeChoice Awards organizers, Đình Bắc was portrayed as a representative of the “bravery gene” of the younger generation. WeChoice highlighted his rise despite rejections due to his physique, the challenges faced during early fame, and his courage to admit mistakes and come back stronger. This emotional storytelling shows that the organizers honor not only achievements but also the resilience of the young player after setbacks.

WeChoice also described Đình Bắc as a player embodying Gen Z energy: daring to dream big, facing pressure head-on, and growing through challenges. His shining moments in youth tournaments and the national team were woven into a narrative of character building, demonstrating that Đình Bắc’s success is not a fleeting luck but the result of long-term training, both in skills and professional attitude.

At the end of the stage interaction, Đình Bắc sent a message to young footballers: always believe in yourself, keep your passion alive, and persistently work hard in every training session and match. Being voted by the community at WeChoice Awards 2025 is therefore not just a title but a milestone that recognizes the journey of overcoming difficulties, exactly as the WeChoice organizers depicted the “bravery gene” of the 2004-born striker.
