Ngô Bá Khá (born November 27, 1993) better known by his pseudonym Khá Bảnh, is a Vietnamese YouTuber, internet personality and amateur actor. He is known primarily for posting videos with controversial statements and content, as well as "múa quạt" (lit. 'fan dance'), which become one of the most conspicuous trends in Vietnam in recent years and has been well received by a significant number of young people.

Throughout his career, Khá Bảnh has become the subject of many controversies due to his behavior and content of his YouTube's channel, most notably a video, in which he and his clique burned a brand new motor bike. On April 2, 2019, Khá Bảnh was arrested during a police raid and sentenced to 10.5 years in prison for drug abuse and ilegal gambling. Immediately after Khá Bảnh's arrest, his YouTube channel, which at the time had more than 2 million subscribers, was shut down by YouTube for violating its terms of use.

Early life
Ngô Bá Khá was born on November 27, 1993, in Từ Sơn, Bắc Ninh province, Vietnam as the youngest child and the only son to a family of four children. His mother is Nguyen Thi Khanh (born 1956) and his father – whose name is unknown – has passed away ịn 2010.

Khá attended Elementary School and Middle School in his hometown Tam Sơn, but had to drop out of school during 7th grade due to family reasons. Despite numerous attempts, the school committee and his class teacher could not convince him to go back to school. At the age of 14, Khá attempted to make a living as wood carpenter and worked in various jobs in the years that followed, until he was detained in Yên Mô Youth Detention Center, Ninh Binh at the age of 17 after being arrested and charged with assault. Shortly after his release in 2012, Khá Bảnh was again charged for the same reason and had to spent another 5 month in jail. Upon returning home, he tried various jobs but ended as an unlicensed moneylender. However, Khá Bảnh later claimed that he was not involved in any illegal business.

Internet career
Khá Bảnh quickly rose to fame thanks to a series of videos – which he himself described as "funny" – about his life on his Facebook page, in which people can see him at work, partying or hanging out with his clique. He was also known for his unusual taste in clothing, as well as his hair – a variant of the mullet hairstyle. In 2017, after realizing that his videos had received a lot of attention from people, mostly teenagers, he decided to create his own YouTube channel. The canal grew rapidly within a few months since its creation. He then assembled his own camera team that help create "professional" videos depicting his jianghu life and to create a picture of him as a man of honor who possesses many moral principles such as trượng nghĩa (仗義; 'from a sense of justice').

Controversies
Despite his popularity, many people argue that his videos are inappropriate according to traditional Vietnamese values. Khá Bảnh often uploads videos showing his gangster life, which involved fighting, or insulting other people. Many videos show him walking through the street with illegal weapons such as machete or expandable baton. Despite the fact that his channel's content is largely inappropriate, he still made a lot of money from YouTube, estimated up to $20,000 per month, without any restriction.

On March 10, 2019, Khá Bảnh posted group photos on Facebook showing him with his friends standing in a row on Hanoi–Haiphong Expressway while leaving their cars on the side of the highway. The day after, Khá Bảnh was dragged to the police station, where he testified that he and his friends were taking a toilet break on their way home after attending a wedding in the neighboring Thái Bình Province and the group photos was thus "unintentionally". Khá Bảnh subsequently had to pay a fine of 5,500,000₫ and his driver's license was suspended for 2 months.

On March 29, 2019, Khá Bảnh uploaded a video that later turned out to be a promotional video showing him burned a Honda PCX scooter and suggested other people to buy an electric motorbike that supposed to be cheaper to operate. His action was not welcome by the large majority of people and he was forced to remove the video that evening.

Personal life
In 2013, Khá married a woman from his village, but the couple divorced in 2017. Shortly after Khá's arrest in 2019, while searching his home for evidence, the police met two women who claimed to be his wife. However, neither of them has a marriage certificate to prove their statements. Khá supposed to be in a relationship with a woman named Hương Dương since 2018. Not much is known about her other than making online sales on her Facebook page, which has grown significantly thanks to Khá's popularity. The current status of their relationship is unclear. However, there have been rumors that the couple split up after Khá Bảnh went to jail.
