Discover Koreno’s journey to capturing the Vietnamese palate with authentic Korean noodles.
Koreno – a leading Korean spicy noodle brand in the Vietnamese market – has successfully won over consumers with its authentic, original flavors.

Tran Thanh has been appointed as the brand ambassador of Koreno
In his role as brand ambassador for the Korean noodle brand, Tran Thanh will accompany Koreno in delivering unique culinary experiences to consumers.
Tran Thanh revealed that Koreno noodles are among his favorite products thanks to their chewy, tender noodle texture and distinctive broth. Therefore, when he was invited to become Koreno’s brand ambassador, the comedian expressed great enthusiasm.
“Through this new role, I hope to spread the image and message of a brand that I truly love to consumers,” he shared. Previously, his wife – singer Hari Won – also appeared in Koreno’s television commercials, contributing to greater brand recognition and helping Koreno products become more widely known among Vietnamese consumers.

Tran Thanh expressed great excitement about taking on the role of brand ambassador for the noodle brand he truly loves.
Explaining the reason for choosing Tran Thanh as brand ambassador for the Koreno noodle line, a representative of Paldo Vina Co., Ltd. shared that although Tran Thanh first rose to fame as a comedian, his remarkable versatility has made him one of the few artists to successfully win over audiences across multiple fields, including television hosting and film acting. His talent, sophistication, and ability to inspire are qualities highly recognized by both Paldo Vina and Vietnamese audiences. In addition, his dynamic and creative personality aligns well with the spirit of the Koreno brand.
Koreno is a noodle brand owned by Paldo Vina Co., Ltd., a company with 100% Korean investment. As the Vietnamese subsidiary of the Paldo Group, which has nearly 40 years of experience in the food industry, Paldo Vina inherits and applies leading noodle production technologies. As a result, Koreno products are widely loved for their chewy, tender noodles combined with rich, flavorful seasonings that embody the essence of Korean cuisine. Notable Koreno products include Koreno, Koreno Jumbo, and Jjajangmyeon (Black Bean Sauce Noodles).
