- Record participation as over 100,000 students nationwide compete in Vietnam's premier academic quiz show
- Hanoi student Đinh Bảo Khánh earns top honor, receives a 200 million VND scholarship
SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Daesang Group announced that the "Vietnam Scholarship Quiz Show," which the company supports, concluded on the 6th amid great interest.
As part of its overseas social contribution initiatives, Daesang supports the Vietnam Scholarship Quiz Show to contribute to the improvement of local educational environments and the development of outstanding young talent. The "Vietnam Scholarship Quiz Show" (Vietnamese: Trạng Nguyên tuổi 13) is a national academic competition for middle school students in grades 6–9 (ages 10–14). Students compete in history, geography, language, mathematics, and more using a traditional "past exam" style format. Rather than simple multiple-choice tests, the format includes oral discussions in which students' thinking and problem-solving abilities are evaluated comprehensively.
This year's edition — with a total prize pool of 500 million VND — drew the largest turnout in the show's history, with over 100,000 participants nationwide. Among them, 100 finalists advanced to the final round after overcoming odds of roughly 1000:1. Ultimately, 15-year-old Đinh Bảo Khánh from Cau Giay Middle School in Hanoi claimed first place and the scholarship prize of 200 million VND. Khánh expressed gratitude, saying, "I thank my parents for their support and Daesang Group for giving me this meaningful opportunity. I will never forget the joy of learning."
This year's competition introduced a new format: the finalists were divided into teams to compete in a "team quiz," testing not only academic knowledge but also cooperation and creative thinking. The judging panel, composed of prominent Vietnamese experts, and the show's host — broadcaster Khanh Vy, often called Vietnam's national MC — added both excitement and professionalism. As a result, the show achieved the highest prime-time viewership ratings on VTV3 for the fifth consecutive year, reaffirming its popularity.
Mr. Jeon Chang-geun, Head of Daesang Vietnam, said: "We consider it important to support youth learning and growth through scholarship programs grounded in the value of respect. Since last year, we have organized gatherings of past winners to foster networking, and we will continue to expand a variety of support initiatives to nurture future talent in Vietnam."
Daesang first entered the Vietnamese market in 1994 by establishing its local subsidiary Miwon Vietnam (now Daesang Vietnam). Since then, the company has steadily expanded its business by offering products tailored to local tastes such as seasoning bases for soups, gim (seaweed), kimchi, and tteokbokki. In 2016, Daesang acquired Vietnamese meat-processing company Duc Viet Foods. In June last year, it completed two factories in Hai Duong and Hung Yen, establishing Jongga kimchi production lines — moves that further enhanced its competitiveness in the Vietnamese market.

Daesang Group's "Vietnam Scholarship Quiz Show" Advances Youth Talent Development Through Respect
As the generative AI industry matures, Higgsfield is taking an important step towards equipping creators and studios with a new tool designed to help assess potential similarity with characters, celebrity likeness, and brands.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Higgsfield, the AI-native video and image platform for professional creators, announced the launch of a similarity-scoring feature for Team Plan customers. The tool evaluates AI-generated content and flags potential visual similarities to celebrity likenesses, characters, brand logos, and other potential intellectual property.
The feature arrives as Higgsfield's platform scales rapidly into commercial production. The company has doubled its user base in under two months, surpassing 20 million users, with a growing share of usage now coming from production teams running commercial campaigns. As AI-generated content moves deeper into professional workflows and elite festivals, creators and teams are increasingly expected to consider similarity, likeness, and whether a generated asset may resemble something protected.
Despite this rapid mainstream adoption, the lack of standardized safeguards remains a bottleneck for wider commercial use. Recognizing this industry-wide challenge, Higgsfield is introducing new features that empower users to make safer choices when using AI generated assets.
The new tool evaluates generated content and assigns it a similarity score to help users identify potential conflicts. Going beyond basic detection, Higgsfield's system is designed to be more nuanced than existing market solutions. The feature evaluates content to known properties, including:
- Characters from popular movies, TV, and video games (e.g., Harry Potter, Spider-Man).
- Likeness of public figures, including stylistic alterations (e.g., a celebrity rendered in unusual forms or wearing obscuring props).
- Brand logos and text assets, such as trademarked taglines.
- Famous artworks and distinct visual concepts.
- Cinematic signatures, such as distinct visual styles associated with specific directors or films (e.g., Wes Anderson, Denis Villeneuve, Alfred Hitchcock).
- Audio content, such as music and other audio content incorporated into video output.
To validate the system's efficacy, the Higgsfield Research Team conducted internal benchmark studies across diverse datasets of AI-generated and reference media. In video detection, Higgsfield's model achieved an 86.6% overall accuracy rate. Higgsfield also significantly reduced false positive rates, flagging incorrect similarities in video only 13.4% of the time.
When a potential similarity is detected, the tool identifies the nature of the similarity, the possible rights holder, and exactly where the similarity occurs in the video. Building on this initiative, Higgsfield has also launched an image model "Soul Cast", which limits image reference uploads, reducing the risk of generating someone else's likeness.
"Generative video is still a new frontier and studios, platforms, and policy experts are all still navigating the complexities of IP and likeness," said Higgsfield CEO Alex Mashrabov. "By activating our content-scoring feature, we give creators a practical way to understand their outputs before final production. We believe that proactive similarity tools like this will soon become standard across the entire generative AI ecosystem."
Higgsfield's initiative reflects a broader company commitment to the ethical and responsible commercialization of AI. For example, the company recently launched the Higgsfield Action Contest with a $500,000 prize pool, accepting nearly 8,800 submissions from all over the world. Content safety is integral to the review process along with originality and storytelling as part of the company's broader approach to building responsibly in this emerging space.
By building tools that empower human creativity while respecting intellectual property, Higgsfield aims to encourage the responsible use of AI technologies.
