The title Man of the Year 2022 went to Dominik Chabr - a contestant from the Czech Republic.

The second, third and fourth runner-up titles went to Bogdan Iusypchuk of Ukraine, Lee Jooyong of the Republic of Korea, and Pablo Gallego of Spain respectively.

Born in 1992 in Ho Chi Minh City, Khac stands at a height of 1.82 metres. The Vietnamese model graduated from Ho Chi Minh City University of Economics and received plenty of compliments due to his masculine appearance and strong communication skills.

In late April this year Khac won the runner-up title of The Next Gentle Man – a beauty contest for Vietnamese men.

Taking part in Man of the Year 2022 in Bali, Indonesia, the Vietnamese model stole the show in the national costume and talent segments.

Minh Khac wore an outfit inspired by Saint Giong – a mythical folk hero of Vietnam and one of the four immortals - to introduce to international friends at the contest. According to the Vietnamese man, Saint Giong symbolizes not only the spirit of fighting against foreign invaders but also youth strength.

In the semi-final round, Minh Khac still maintained his impressive performance in the vest and swimwear segments.

Taking advantage of his outstanding height, the Vietnamese model looked like a successful gentleman when wearing a black suit. He also boasted his abs to fight the remaining 13 opponents in his swimwear.

In Man of The Year 2019 Tuong Ngoc Minh - another Vietnamese model - was named as first runner-up of the pageant.
