Each one has been a banger and “新年Beng Beng Beng” is no different. It’s eye-catching from the onset, what with it’s colourful displays of Malaysian life. Of course, the quintet and their striking costumes help with that.
Be it Chang Yong’s transformation as an ‘auntie’, Phei Yong’s debut as a thug with durian-like hair and Shu Sen’s spectacular acting as a chicken rice shop owner, viewers are consistently entertained by their looks and antics. Local actor and MY FM DJ Jack Lim (林德荣)’s surprise appearance as a serious follower of Chang Le’s ‘ah beng’ persona was definitely a plus with his ginger hair and leopard print shirt.
But, Phei Yong still beat them all by a mile when he appeared on screen playing Shu Sen’s daughter.

Some admitted to being worried it would not be as good as previous years. “The preview looked very lala (gay), and I was afraid of being disappointed, but the result was very good!” one said.
Several were quick to tease Phei Yong about his cross-dressing stint. “Shu Sen’s daughter (is) very cute,” some mentioned, while another said: “I didn’t expect that the 2024 female version of Phei Yong would be (so) beautiful and even get married.” Others also praised the group for going all out regardless of their image.
