This season was co-produced by Đông Tây Promotion, and Ho Chi Minh City Television.

Trần Quốc Thiên from Thống Nhất, Đồng Nai Province was crowned as the winner of the competition.

Following the success of the show, it was confirmed by producers that it would have Vietnam Idol air for a second season, but authorities subsequently postponed the contest until August.

The Theater Round involved the 94 contestants, who were invited to participate in Ho Chi Minh City in late August 2008.

The finale also included special performances from the winner of Vietnam Idol 2007 Phương Vy, Hà Hồ, Đàm Vĩnh Hưng, Quang Dũng and a notable collaboration between the three judges.
