In many rural villages in Vietnam the belief that marrying to Taiwan guarantees a happy life is deeply ingrained, because even though many find life less than great in Taiwan, most of them resign themselves to their fate and work hard at the relationship, never wanting to let their families know how they feel for fear of worrying their parents or losing face in front of loved ones.
在許多越南鄉間仍存有「嫁到台灣＝過得很好」的刻板印象下，即使女兒結婚後發現台灣夫家環境並不好，也多半認命地努力打拚，並不會跟娘家吐苦水，以免父母擔憂，或在親友間失了面子。
