During a meet-and-greet session held in Hanoi on Sunday night, T1 members shared that they really loved Vietnamese pho and coffee.
T1 members, including Doran, Oner, Faker, Peyz, and Keria, arrived in Hanoi on Saturday, and then took a stroll around the iconic Ho Guom (Sword Lake).
They also enjoyed pho and coffee the same day.
Pho, a type of Vietnamese soup, usually served with rice noodles, slices of beef or chicken, and herbs, as defined by the Oxford Learner’s Dictionary, has gained global fame for its rich flavor and healthy balance.
Faker, dubbed the ‘Unkillable Demon King,’ said he loved pho when a Vietnamese fan asked about his favorite Vietnamese dish.

Another T1 member, Doran, greeted Vietnamese fans in their language, saying, “Xin chào! Sáng nay tôi ăn phở" (Hello! I ate pho this morning).
Meanwhile, esports player Keria expressed his hope of visiting Ho Chi Minh City to savor pho there.
A day earlier, Keria shared on social media about his food tour in Hanoi.
“Pho makes me so emotional," he wrote.
“Everything [all the dishes he ate] is delicious. ‘Pho’ is GOAT (Greatest of All Time),” he posted.
“Yesterday, I tried Vietnamese pho and tasted it with coriander for the first time. It was delicious, and I asked the restaurant for extra coriander. It was a great experience,” Keria said at the meet-and-greet session with Vietnamese fans.
Faker also wrote on social media that Vietnamese pho was so delicious.
At the session, which attracted over 13,000 fans, the T1 members expressed their love for Vietnamese food.
“I love coffee, so after arriving in Vietnam, I drank coffee,” Doran shared.
“The Vietnamese coffee is tasty, and many Vietnamese dishes suit my taste."
Also, Faker shared that he seldom drinks coffee, but he tried coconut milk coffee in Hanoi.
“It is so tasty,” he said.
Faker, whose real name is Lee Sang-hyeok, joined the T1 team, previously known as SK Telecom T1 or SKT T1, a South Korean esports organization, in 2013, winning six world championship titles.
His most recent triumph was at the 2025 edition in November.
