Another week, another whirlwind of totally EXTRA events! We were here, there and everywhere!
We were on the scene and vibing like a boss! Just check out our social diary for this past week (don’t be jelly!):
MY BMW World 2025 @ Sentul Depot
We attended the MY BMW World 2025 showcase at The Yard, Sentul Depot, and had a blast. The dazzling event saw four new models from BMW Group Malaysia’s portfolio unveiled – The New BMW X3 20 xDrive M Sport, New BMW 330i M Sport, New BMW 320i Sport, and New BMW 218 Gran Coupé Sport, all of which were locally built.
The new rides – influenced by technology openness and the power of choice – represent a dedication to future-forward design and performance, and reflect the varied tastes and lifestyles of today’s discriminating drivers. The models range from the sport-driven elegance of the BMW 3 Series, to the adaptability of the BMW X3 and the individualistic BMW 2 Series Gran Coupé. In the midst of one of BMW Group Malaysia’s most important showcases to date, they vividly illustrate what it means to be Defined by Progress, Driven by Legacy. Here’s what went down at the launch:

vivo X200 FE Pre-launch @ Oomph
We had a chance to preview the vivo X200 FE at an exclusive pre-launch event – and it’s a knock-out! Co-engineered with ZEISS, the X200 FE boasts an impressive camera system with enhanced settings rarely seen on recent smartphones. It’s designed to give users the freedom and flexibility of professional photography, all from the convenience of their phone.
Visually, the device stands out with four stylish colour options: pink, white, black, and blue, making it easy to match any aesthetic. But it’s not just about looks; the X200 FE is packed with AI-powered features that elevate the overall experience, from capturing crystal-clear images to shooting cinematic videos. It’s a seamless blend of sleek design, advanced technology, and everyday practicality.

Halal Hanwoo @ Kikyo KL With Michelin Star Chef Son Jongwon
To celebrate the arrival of halal Hanwoo in Malaysia, we were invited to a special lunch event at Kikyo Kuala Lumpur. The star of the event was South Korean chef Son Jongwon, who is the only chef in Korea to operate two one-Michelin-star restaurants, L’Amant Secret and Eatanic Garden. The specially-curated menu spotlights the exquisite taste of Hanwoo, which is Korea’s prized native cattle.
Adding to the exclusivity of the event was the use of MiGyeongSan Hanwoo, which is an exceptionally rare variety. The lunch starts with Small Hanwoo Bites, a trio of appetisers featuring Hanwoo in different forms. The highlight of the menu was the “Gui” segment, which featured Roasted Tenderloin, Doenjang Marinated Ribeye and Chargrilled Ribeye Cap. Meanwhile, the Hanwoo Yukhew Bibimbap offered a luxurious upgrade to a traditional Korean delicacy.
