The Bachelor Vietnam - Anh chàng độc thân (Single guy) is a Vietnamese reality television adaptation of the American series The Bachelor that debuted 14 August 2018 on Ho Chi Minh City Television channel 7 (HTV7).[1]
Plot[edit]
The program has a format similar to the American version, with 24 women competing for a single man to be selected as his romantic partner. Through the series, he learns more about each contestant.
