Long explanation:

'Khác' and 'khác nhau' are both used to express the idea of difference in Vietnamese. However, 'khác' is mostly used as an adjective to express difference between two or more separate things or people. While, 'khác nhau' is used to emphasize differences within a group or category or between comparable things.
