Contexte culturel
The 'V' sign is the most common pose. It's seen as friendly and cute (dễ thương). 'Sống ảo' (virtual living) describes the obsession with taking perfect photos for social media. In many temples, photography is forbidden inside the main hall out of respect for the Buddha. Asking a stranger to take your photo is a great way to start a conversation in Vietnam.
