[Coverage] JAPAN EXPO
MALAYSIA 2019 @ PAVILION KUALA LUMPUR
Kuala Lumpur, August 2019 – Last month was a great month
filled with lots of happenings! One of the major happenings which I am excited
to share about was Japan Expo Malaysia
2019 which has taken place from 26th
July 2019 – 28th July 2019 at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur!
Biggest All-Japan Event In Malaysia!
Japan Expo Malaysia 2019 (JEMY 2019) was definitely the biggest Japanese
event in Malaysia this year and it has attracted over 180,000 visitors from
both locally and also internationally! This was the third consecutive years for
Pavilion KL to hold this event and
it was a fun-filled weekend!
The
event was organized by G-Yu Creative and
co-organized by Siam Connection Sdn Bhd.
It has offered a lot of Japanese goodness in various ways! Over that weekend,
you could have a good exposure over the travel offers to Japan, arts and
cultures, Performances from Japanese artistes (Huge line-ups), Meet and Greet
with celebrities, cosplay activities as well as many interactive contests!
Awesome Line-ups of Japanese Artistes!
The
line-ups this year were superb! The list includes AKB48, along with other popular Japanese singers such as KIREI, KIIYAMA SHOUTEN, DJ HELLO KITTY,
cosmic!!, Riona Hamamatsu, Yoyogi Jyoshi Ongakuin, SORGENTI, Chocolate Bomb!!,
YUMEOI SYOUJYO, KOUSUKE ATARI and etc!
My
favourite was AKB48’s performance!
There were only 6 members who have come to Malaysia this time, namely Mion Mukaichi, Megu Taniguchi, Rin Okabe,
Nana Okada, Yui Oguri and Nagisa
Sakaguchi! The girls have made all of the visitors hyped up during their
performance! They have performed a
total of 5 songs and have totally mesmerized the fans!
The
rest of the performers have also amazed the visitors with their great
performances! The Japanese Music Fans could get the best out of it as there
were simultaneous and consecutive LIVE Concerts which were happening at the Main Stage as well as the Outdoor Stage of Pavilion Kuala Lumpur!
Massive Amount Of Ongoing Activities!
Apart from the surreal amount of performances, the visitors also get to indulge themselves in many activities during the expo. The fans for the Japanese idols could even get the rare opportunity to meet and greet with their favourite celebrities. You could also take photos with them at their booth! It was like a dream came true for many!
