(Video) DAY6 YoungK's Recent Song Cover Was Filmed In Mega Star Arena?
Last year, K-pop rock band DAY6 (데이식스) won over Malaysian fans with their first Malaysian concert at Mega Star Arena. Almost a year after the show, the quartet continues to make headlines among Malaysian fans, with some suspecting that their newest cover drop could have been filmed at last year's concert venue. Yesterday (3rd June 2025), DAY6 member YoungK (영케이) posted a short cover of 'Close To You' by The Carpenters on their socials. The 48-second cover features a familiar red seat in a dimly lit hall, which eagle-eyed fans have speculated could be the upper seating area of Mega Star Arena. The observation was made by a local fan via Twitter, who pointed out that the red seats look like those on the upper deck of Mega Star Arena. The fans speculate that the filming of the cover could have taken place in Malaysia during their first concert last year. Fans have also pointed out the similarity of YoungK's outfit in the cover video to what he wore during the soundcheck session on the show's second-day performance, which solidified speculations. Other than the similarity in outfits and hairstyle, other fans have also noticed the familiar green sign, which resembles Malaysia's exit sign. Twitter user @/day6inifinite comments, 'Am I delusional or is this Mega Star Arena and the green exit sign with the YoungK outfit for sound check day 2 in KL?'. The comments section is also filled with fan support for the vocalist's new cover. While there's no confirmation yet, fans are convinced the cover was filmed in our very own city.

Pulau Sipadan Dive Turns Tragic As Chinese Tourist Drowns
The sea can be a scary place if not treaded appropriately. Other than the lack of oxygen, our movements are stiffened and slow, and the pressure down below may suffocate, leaving a little more than a second for things to go awry. On Monday (19th May 2025), a Chinese tourist watched her husband drown in front of her as he dived into the water off the coast of Pulau Sipadan, Sabah. Reports say that he jumped off the boat without the supervision of the diving instructors. The pair were a part of a group of 8 divers who participated in a diving activity by the resort. Police statements reported that the incident involving the 37-year-old male tourist happened at 10:45 a.m. as he jumped into the water without the supervision of his diving instructor. The victim's body was found unconscious by one of the divers at an estimated depth of 25 metres. A statement from District Police Chief Superintendent Mohd Sabri Zainol adds that he was brought back to the boat where the group made attempts to resuscitate him. The tourist showed some response by taking a deep breath and proceeded to vomit, but he remained unconscious afterwards. Unfortunately, the victim was pronounced dead upon his arrival at Tawau Hospital after he was transferred from Semporna Hospital. What started as a fun trip ended in a tragic accident. We send our condolences to the victim's family. Source: New Straits Times Alyssa Gabrielle contributed to this article

(Video) It Was Samsung All Along! Viral KL Billboard Search History 'Leak' Mystery Finally Revealed
Last week, commuters were met with a peculiar sight on the LDP highway as flashes of someone's search history were leaked on a digital billboard for all to see. Finally, we're getting some answers on the mystery surrounding the highly personal searches, and no one could've expected the reveal. Yesterday (Monday, 19th May 2025), Samsung Malaysia claimed on their socials that it was them who were responsible for the so-called glitch. The billboard leak was revealed to be an advertisement for their new Gemini Live AI function, paired with an invitation to join their upcoming event. The post on their socials read, 'It was us. Always has been. #DoneClaim', paired with a video that showed hints that were just under our noses. Looking closely at the ad, the billboard not only showcased someone's search history but also an error message containing subtle hints leading to Samsung, such as a direct mention of Samsung Malaysia Electronics and a word play on Gemini. So what was all that for? The ad was a sneaky intro to Samsung's Gemini Live, which feels more like talking to your best friend than an AI model. The AI assistant is ready for download across all devices, but is readily built into the Samsung Galaxy S25 for ease of use for users. Samsung also invites the public to experience Gemini Live at their Samsung AI TalkSpot at The Starhill from 21st – 27th May 2025. Did the billboard ad catch your eye?
