The visiting side was awarded a penalty and Quyet scored with a straight shot to the left corner of goalkeeper Michael Falkesgaard.
Earlier, Oseni, Do Duy Manh and Papa Omar Faye also tested Falkesgaard but the Danish-Filipino goalie saved their shots with ease.
Bangkok United dominated the second half but could not capitalise on their chances with Tristan Do and Nelson Bonilla both failing to find the target.
Ha Noi FC are through to the playoffs and will face Chinese Super League club Shandong Luneng on February 19.
