Every blood type is cool, but what if you could possess every one of them including O-type blood?
The Golden Blood
There are only 43 people in this world who have this rarest, life-saving blood running in their veins, and a Terengganu woman is one of them.
Very few people are aware of this blood type actually could ever exist. Even fewer people shared it.
It would be simple if we all shared the same ancestors. However, we do not. On the surface of each of our red blood cells, there are up to 342 antigens - molecules that can cause the development of specialized proteins known as antibodies.
The presence or absence of certain antigens defines a person's blood type, (A, B, AB, O) the ones you learned in Biology class or will in the future.
160 of the 342 blood group antigens have a 'high prevalence,' which implies they are present on the red blood cells of the majority of people. If you lack an antigen for which 99 percent of the world's population is positive, your blood is regarded rare. If you don't have one that 99.99 percent of the people have, you have extremely rare blood- the Golden Blood.
Why it is considered the most valuable blood in the world?
Well, the Golden Blood is not like our major types of blood. Is it something like <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahsuri">Mahsuri</a>? Erm, nope.
This rarest type of blood is recognized to be missing an entire blood group system making it &ldquo;super friendly&rdquo; to the other blood types. This blood is excellent for transfusion because it lacks common antigens, and it can be accepted by anyone who needs a transfusion without the risk of a blood transfusion reaction.
According to Scroll In, researchers unraveled that the Golden Blood or Rhnull blood can be considered &lsquo;universal&rsquo; blood for anyone with unusual blood types within the Rh system, and its power to save lives is phenomenal.
Since it is limited and highly honored by doctors, the Golden Blood will only be given to patients in extreme circumstances and after great thought, because it may be nearly difficult to replace. "It's the golden blood," explains Dr. Thierry Peyrard, Director of the National Immunohematology Reference Laboratory in Paris.
Terengganu woman, Malaysia&rsquo;s only 'Golden Blood'
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1638503815/unsigned/mrze4dkx7mdbpz73rpme.jpg" alt="" width="681" height="426" />
Recently, Malaysia has been hit with the news of a Terengganu woman discovered to be having the rarest blood type in the world aka the &lsquo;Golden Blood&rsquo;.
According to a Facebook post by the Terengganu blood bank, the woman wants her identity to remain unknown following that she is one of 43 people in the whole world, with a unique blood type.
&ldquo;This donor&rsquo;s blood group is Rhnull, the rarest blood type in the world,
&ldquo;We cannot give information on the blood donor because she is not ready to be interviewed and has asked for her identity to be kept secret,&rdquo; the Terengganu Kite blood bank posted on its Facebook page.
&ldquo;We identified her blood type from a blood group test, and her test results were sent to an overseas laboratory for confirmation,&rdquo; the blood bank explained.
The woman&rsquo;s blood was later sent to the National Blood Centre to be frozen and stored in a nitrogen box at a temperature of -80&deg;C, for 10 years.
&ldquo;If there are patients who need this type of blood, it will be diluted for use,&rdquo; the administrator said, without elaborating any further.
The woman became an online sensation subject after a photo of her donating blood went viral on social media.
&nbsp;
Rare blood type with the capability to save a thousand lives is beyond amazing and infinitely precious to medicine and science. But to consider if something happens to those who own Rhnull blood, their survival will be a ticking clock.
We wish everyone to stay safe and start saving lives through blood donation because we will never know how many lives need it!

Former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak has once again escaped conviction in one of his many legal battles, after the High Court granted him a discharge not amounting to an acquittal (DNAA) over RM27 million allegedly misappropriated from SRC International. However, the 70-year-old remains behind bars, serving a six-year sentence for a separate SRC-related conviction involving RM42 million.
SRC International: The RM27 Million DNAA Explained
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fnajibrazak%2Fposts%2Fpfbid02TiwoRcLMXtckDyrxkJkEpe5Ew9JEmp3sbjNWUzdvx6BnB5bZtxnEdrQanRbX9pbFl&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="624" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>&nbsp;
On 20 June 2025, High Court Judge K Muniandy delivered the long-awaited decision on Najib's final SRC-related criminal case, which had stalled since charges were first brought in February 2019. The former premier had been accused of receiving RM27 million in illegal proceeds through his AmPrivate Banking accounts on 8 July 2014.
The judge ruled in favour of a DNAA, agreeing with the defence that it would be unjust for Najib to continue facing charges indefinitely without trial. Noting the prosecution&rsquo;s repeated delays and inability to proceed&mdash;despite six years having passed&mdash;Justice Muniandy said there was no sign the case could move forward within a reasonable time frame.
&ldquo;The prolonged wait has become a long haul for the accused, denying him timely resolution,&rdquo; the judge said. He emphasised that criminal charges should not hang over an accused like &ldquo;the sword of Damocles.&rdquo;
A DNAA means Najib is released from the charges, but not acquitted&mdash;should fresh evidence emerge, the prosecution may reopen the case.
Prosecution&rsquo;s Delays and Missing Documents
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7ab937d699a838aeb527ed37289ca16e8dde99b05c558748df9bbacbb8648a4e" />
Najib&rsquo;s lead counsel, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, revealed the prosecution had failed to compile over 500 essential documents needed to move forward with trial. When queried by the court in May, the deputy public prosecutor admitted they could not commit to a timeline, leading to further uncertainty.
The judge also noted that no witnesses had been called in the six years since the case was filed, with only repeated postponements. Even the prosecution conceded it would not be prejudiced by a DNAA, highlighting the case&rsquo;s deadlocked state.
Shafee later told reporters that Najib was &ldquo;very happy&rdquo; with the outcome, adding that the number of cases hanging over his client was now diminishing, allowing the former premier to focus solely on the high-profile 1MDB trial.
Najib&rsquo;s Ongoing Legal Woes
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/5379d4145a2d71b8d6443e17be09a74b78ccb33b3adf88755fcad48df6780080" />
While the RM27 million SRC case is now on pause, Najib is far from a free man.
He remains imprisoned in Kajang Prison after being convicted in 2020 for seven charges involving RM42 million from SRC International, including criminal breach of trust, abuse of power, and money laundering. The conviction was upheld by the Court of Appeal in 2021 and the Federal Court in 2022. Initially sentenced to 12 years in prison and fined RM210 million, Najib&rsquo;s sentence was halved in 2024 following a partial royal pardon.
The 1MDB-linked case that landed him in prison was the first to result in an actual conviction&mdash;but it is far from his only legal entanglement.
The Larger 1MDB Scandal and Other DNAA Cases
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/aa4c0c5afbd5c019f4dff8129179d387be9f2f3cda1e4a3522dec3a63c218fd7" />
Najib is currently fighting a separate, more complex case: the 1MDB-Tanore trial. He faces four charges of abuse of power and 21 charges of money laundering involving RM2.27 billion in 1MDB funds. That trial, which began more than seven years ago, is finally nearing its end. Written submissions are due by 30 September 2025, with oral arguments scheduled for October.
He has previously been granted DNAA status in other high-profile cases:
<ul>
<li>RM6.6 Billion IPIC Case: In 2018, Najib and former Treasury secretary-general Tan Sri Irwan Serigar were charged with criminal breach of trust over RM6.6 billion related to a settlement between 1MDB and Abu Dhabi&rsquo;s International Petroleum Investment Company (IPIC). The case stalled due to missing documents and was DNAA&rsquo;d in 2023.</li>
<li>1MDB Audit Report Tampering: Najib and former 1MDB CEO Arul Kanda were acquitted in 2023 of tampering with the 1MDB final audit report after the court found insufficient evidence.</li>
</ul>
House Arrest Bid and Ongoing Controversies
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/99644eb54db6f13278d94eb00d0a370e80ca96ab018fac57d884460d06c75c0a" />
Najib is also pursuing a civil application seeking to serve the remainder of his prison term under house arrest, based on an alleged &ldquo;royal addendum&rdquo; issued in January 2024 by former King Al-Sultan Abdullah. His legal team claims this royal order was overlooked by authorities.
His lawyer Shafee recently lodged a police report against former Attorney General Ahmad Terrirudin Salleh, accusing him of misleading the courts by claiming that the addendum did not exist. Shafee maintains that the former AG had full knowledge of the document, which allegedly permits Najib to complete his sentence under house arrest.
However, access to confirm the existence of the royal decree has reportedly been stalled by the Ministry of Home Affairs. Shafee said the Prisons Department had no objection to Najib lodging a police report himself, but Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail had not granted permission despite multiple written requests.
What Happens Next?
For now, Najib&rsquo;s legal focus shifts solely to the 1MDB-Tanore case. If he is found guilty, it could add more jail time on top of his current sentence&mdash;even with the reduced term from the royal pardon.
The DNAA granted in the RM27 million SRC case spares Najib from immediate further prosecution, but it remains a temporary reprieve. The prosecution is free to reinstate the charges when ready, and the shadow of his extensive legal history still looms large over the former prime minister.
With mounting controversies and his legacy deeply entwined with one of the world's most infamous financial scandals, Najib Razak&rsquo;s courtroom saga is far from over.

Najib Razak Walks Free From RM27 Million SRC Charges – But Remains A Jailed Man

Penang&rsquo;s long-anticipated Light Rail Transit (LRT) project is finally set to break ground, with physical construction works expected to begin as early as August 2025. Transport Minister Anthony Loke recently confirmed the update, noting that preparatory works, including piling, will commence within the next month or two.
Malaysia&rsquo;s First LRT Outside Klang Valley
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f4ac82b11784c1f6a1ad20b3a5cb4aef54b651ba87f886d088a4286722085e5d" />
The Mutiara Line marks a significant milestone for Penang and for Malaysia&rsquo;s public transport development. It will be the country&rsquo;s first LRT system located outside the Klang Valley and aims to transform mobility across the northern state. The project was originally proposed in 2015 under the Penang Transport Master Plan (PTMP), with the goal of easing traffic congestion and offering a more efficient alternative to road travel.
Initially led by the state government, the project was taken over by the federal government in early 2024. MRT Corporation has since been appointed as the official developer and asset owner, bringing with it the experience and infrastructure expertise from the Klang Valley MRT lines.
A 29.5km Line Connecting Key Districts
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/fa35de7e4e5e3b23856ca239ec976043d0f81350ee9b7e57b53ddb05b91f2194" />
The Mutiara Line will span 29.5km and include 21 stations. It will link George Town&rsquo;s city centre with Jelutong, Gelugor, and Bayan Lepas on Penang Island, before extending across the channel to Seberang Perai on the mainland. A full end-to-end trip is expected to take approximately 49 minutes.
Transport authorities estimate that the line will serve around 45,600 passengers per day during its first year of operation. It is also expected to play a key role in reducing the state&rsquo;s vehicle dependency, especially among daily commuters.
All Approvals Settled, Work Packages Awarded
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0bafa55ac7772a9e1bdd2c147248b0cddc54331fc01cbfea998a6c6a4ed3190b" />
Transport Minister Loke confirmed that all administrative issues between the federal and state governments have now been resolved. &ldquo;Penang doesn&rsquo;t need to wait anymore. Everything is done,&rdquo; he said, adding that the Notice to Proceed has been issued and all relevant documents, including letters of release, are in place.
He also mentioned that major work packages have already been awarded to subcontractors by the main contractor. Among them is Econpile (M) Sdn Bhd, which recently secured a RM42.82 million contract for bored piling and related groundwork from Irama Duta Sdn Bhd.
Acknowledging Penang&rsquo;s existing traffic challenges, Loke assured that proper traffic management plans will be implemented to minimise disruptions during construction. &ldquo;We&rsquo;ve requested that, once piling and construction begin, there must be a proper traffic diversion plan in place,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;As with any construction project, there will be some impact, but our aim is to keep it manageable.&rdquo;
Residents can expect regular updates and engagement efforts from local authorities and MRT Corp as works progress, especially in high-traffic areas near George Town and Bayan Lepas.
Target Completion by 2030
The full completion of the Mutiara Line is slated for 2030. While this may seem a long wait, transport experts note that the complexity of urban rail infrastructure &mdash; particularly in heritage-rich and densely built-up areas like George Town &mdash; requires careful planning and phased execution.
The government has not ruled out the possibility of certain segments becoming operational ahead of full completion if conditions allow.
A New Era for Penang&rsquo;s Urban Mobility
Once operational, the LRT will not only ease traffic congestion but also offer a more sustainable, reliable alternative to private vehicle usage. It is expected to spur economic activity along the corridor, increase property values near stations, and create job opportunities throughout its construction and operation phases.
For Penang, the Mutiara Line represents more than just a transport upgrade &mdash; it&rsquo;s a vision for a more connected, accessible, and modern future.

Penang’s First-Ever LRT: Mutiara Line Construction To Begin By August 2025

Gamers in Malaysia have reason to celebrate &ndash; the Nintendo Switch 2 is officially launching on 3 July 2025, with pre-orders already open through major retailers. This comes just days after Nintendo Southeast Asia made the announcement via its official Facebook page and updated the Malaysian website with full product listings.
As excitement builds, early adopters may want to act quickly &ndash; especially with stocks for certain models already dwindling. But while the upgraded hybrid console brings new features and highly anticipated titles, its premium pricing is already raising eyebrows &ndash; especially when compared to rivals like the PlayStation 5.
Launch Date, Models &amp; Availability
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c31b0847161eb6ff37d189f4dd2cb976a6066703c415339a82844965c79eaf71" />
Nintendo has confirmed two models for the Malaysian market:
<ul>
<li>Nintendo Switch 2 Standalone Set &ndash; RM2,488</li>
<li>Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle &ndash; RM2,688</li>
</ul>
Both options come with a one-year official Malaysian warranty, managed by Convergent Distribution, Nintendo&rsquo;s official distributor in Malaysia. The Mario Kart World bundle includes the full game in physical card format, not a download code.
Launch units will be available in stores nationwide starting 3 July, with pre-orders currently live on platforms like Shopee and Lazada via the Nintendo Official Store Malaysia.
Shipping &amp; Pre-Order Demand
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/81ae45aa537c161a877d90d06be3114fa1287796f415fa1ca79ffc187b8a3760" />
Despite the 3 July launch date, shipping timelines on e-commerce platforms indicate that delivery may occur later than expected. Shopee estimates delivery between 20 July to 7 August, while Lazada lists guaranteed arrival between 23 to 25 July.
Demand has already skewed heavily toward the Mario Kart World bundle, with stock levels for the standalone version running low, according to a quick check of Shopee listings.
&nbsp;
Where to Buy
Nintendo&rsquo;s official distributor has released a comprehensive list of authorised retailers. Some of the most popular outlets include:
<ul>
<li>Asashi Technology (Wangsa Walk, Melawati Mall)</li>
<li>Best Denki (1 Utama, KLCC, MyTown, IOI City Mall)</li>
<li>Thunder Match (TMT) (Mid Valley, Pavilion Bukit Jalil, Sunway Pyramid)</li>
<li>Harvey Norman, Fotocharlie, Popular Bookstore, ToyPanic, [i] Store, and many more across Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak.</li>
</ul>
Many of these stores have started taking pre-orders both in-person and online.
Confirmed Launch Titles &amp; Pricing
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2d7dafaa2e34c872d70b457532104c2ae38790bc600adcae823ae9b8028c846a" />
Gamers can look forward to a robust launch lineup, with several exclusive and reworked titles available from day one:
<ul>
<li>Mario Kart World &ndash; RM398</li>
<li>Tamagotchi Plaza (Switch 2 Edition) &ndash; RM230</li>
<li>The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Switch 2 Edition) &ndash; RM298</li>
<li>The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch 2 Edition) &ndash; RM265</li>
<li>Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster &ndash; RM165</li>
</ul>
These games are being offered in physical form with Malaysian-certified cartridges, eliminating the need for lengthy downloads.
Accessories and Add-ons
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/a5d0df9150e2b1c59017238a29bd706cbaf04c28463e75e8b7f2cbd445115afb" />
A wide range of first-party accessories will also be available for purchase on launch day. Prices are as follows:
<ul>
<li>Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller &ndash; RM388</li>
<li>Joy-Con 2 (Left &amp; Right) &ndash; RM498</li>
<li>Single Joy-Con 2 (Left or Right) &ndash; RM258</li>
<li>Joy-Con Charging Grip &ndash; RM183</li>
<li>Joy-Con Wheel (Set of 2) &ndash; RM108</li>
<li>AC Adapter &ndash; RM168</li>
<li>Carrying Case + Screen Protector &ndash; RM128</li>
<li>Nintendo Switch Camera &ndash; RM258</li>
<li>SanDisk microSD Express 256GB &ndash; RM298</li>
</ul>
Only the Pro Controller, Joy-Con 2, and Switch Camera are confirmed to carry a one-year official warranty. The status of warranty coverage for other accessories remains unclear.
Why It&rsquo;s More Expensive Than You Think
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/d951fa1f7b8bd79ab61f11c9f684e0e64a418c079617020c63724ea48abb3446" />
While the excitement surrounding the Switch 2 is understandable, some gamers may hesitate when comparing its pricing to other consoles in the market.
At RM2,488, the base Switch 2 costs more than the PS5 Slim Digital Edition, currently priced at RM2,069. Even the PS5 Slim Disc Edition, with enhanced graphics and a Blu-ray drive, is just RM2,499 &ndash; a mere RM11 more than Nintendo&rsquo;s new console.
In essence, for roughly the same price (or even less), consumers can opt for a PlayStation 5, a more powerful console in terms of hardware performance, with a larger third-party game library, native 4K gaming support, and access to high-end exclusives like Spider-Man 2, Final Fantasy XVI, and God of War: Ragnar&ouml;k.
While the Nintendo Switch 2 offers unique portability and family-friendly titles, its premium price and mid-range specs might give serious gamers pause &mdash; especially those seeking maximum performance per ringgit.
Final Thoughts
The Nintendo Switch 2 marks an exciting chapter for Nintendo fans in Malaysia, offering a long-overdue upgrade and strong launch support. Its hybrid nature, exclusive titles, and family-friendly experience continue to set it apart in a competitive gaming landscape.
However, prospective buyers will need to weigh the value proposition carefully. With the PS5 available at a lower price, the Switch 2&rsquo;s success may ultimately hinge on Nintendo&rsquo;s unique software ecosystem and the appeal of its innovative gameplay format &mdash; not necessarily its technical prowess.
Whether you&rsquo;re in it for Zelda, Mario Kart, or the portable experience, one thing is certain: gaming in Malaysia just got a lot more interesting &mdash; and expensive.

Nintendo Switch 2 Set to Launch in Malaysia on 3 July 2025; Priced From RM2,488

Following a three-year hiatus to fulfil South Korea&rsquo;s compulsory military service, BTS is finally poised to reunite as a full group in March 2026. The long-awaited return of the global K-pop sensation is already sending waves of anticipation across the world.
The End of an Era, and the Beginning of Another
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c36b28e5d5f8da90421707bf87957697b97b9b7d60d21ed78c9519f229e7676e" />
It&rsquo;s been a long and emotional journey for BTS and their dedicated fanbase, known as ARMY. Since the group officially began their military service hiatus following their Yet To Come concert in October 2022, fans have been counting the days to their return. That day is now on the horizon.
The group&rsquo;s final member, SUGA, is set to complete his mandatory service as a social worker on 21 June 2025. His discharge will mark the official conclusion of all seven members' enlistment, following the recent returns of Jungkook, Jimin, RM, and V, and the earlier discharges of Jin and J-Hope in 2024.
In a statement posted on WeVerse, Big Hit Music, BTS&rsquo;s agency under HYBE, confirmed SUGA&rsquo;s impending release but urged fans not to gather in person due to safety concerns. &ldquo;Please convey your warm regards in your hearts,&rdquo; the company stated. &ldquo;We are always grateful for your unwavering love and support.
March 2026: A Date to Remember
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/712615627093b988909e005a4a3360cb399d477e6742edc332e5b7d94311b565" />
Multiple credible sources, including The Korea Herald and Rolling Stone, have reported that BTS is preparing for a full-scale comeback in March 2026. While the specific release date has yet to be confirmed, industry insiders suggest that the return will fall in mid-March. This comeback will be BTS&rsquo;s first full-group release since their anthology album Proof in 2022.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/d38eba8a4baae23aab0a83f071589656aa2c1182da973db44d435f64455d78c5" />
An official from HYBE reportedly confirmed the timing, adding that the group is working with top-tier producers and requires time to rebuild momentum after nearly four years apart. &ldquo;The members need time for preparation and creative work post-discharge,&rdquo; said HYBE CEO Lee Jae-sang during a shareholder meeting earlier this year.
Pdogg, the long-time producer behind many of BTS&rsquo;s hits, also commented on the process, noting the importance of connecting with each member to shape authentic, personal music. &ldquo;I spend a lot of time talking to each member&hellip; to understand how they view the world,&rdquo; he said.
The Comeback Ripple Effect
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/55be45f37210111f253b91c7d4af7531b8aa9b83675636e0fe1f159869ef7028" /> Left: TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT); Right: ENHYPEN
BTS&rsquo;s return isn&rsquo;t just monumental for fans&mdash;it&rsquo;s reshaping HYBE&rsquo;s entire release calendar. Their younger labelmates, including TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT) and ENHYPEN, are adjusting their own schedules to avoid overlapping with the global superstars.
TXT, who share the same parent label, are also planning a comeback in March 2026. According to overseas insiders, both groups are expected to release music in the same month, though who returns first remains unclear. ENHYPEN, managed by HYBE&rsquo;s subsidiary BELIFT LAB, has reportedly moved their comeback forward to January to make room for BTS&rsquo;s triumphant return.
This strategic coordination highlights just how influential BTS remains&mdash;not just within their company, but across the entire K-pop industry. Their presence dominates the global spotlight, making room for others to shine only when they step aside.
Reunions and Solo Endeavours
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/d01bc984bea2730bddf475b63bc59753850c2ccef4c491b8a138c867aaeca90e" />
In the lead-up to their official return, BTS members have slowly been reuniting both publicly and behind the scenes. One major moment came during J-Hope&rsquo;s Hope on the Stage concert in June, when all seven members were present&mdash;either in the audience or on stage&mdash;to celebrate their 12th anniversary as a group.
The concert marked an emotional, unofficial reunion. Fans were especially moved when Jin and Jungkook joined J-Hope on stage, while RM, Jimin, V, and SUGA sat together in the stands. The moment symbolised not just nostalgia, but the deep bond that continues to connect the members even after years of individual paths.
Meanwhile, Jin is preparing to embark on a solo fan concert tour titled Runseokjin_EP.Tour, kicking off on 28&ndash;29 June in Goyang. The tour spans 18 shows in nine cities, including major stops in Chiba, Osaka, Anaheim, Dallas, Tampa, Newark, London, and Amsterdam. Running until August 2025, the tour demonstrates that solo pursuits will remain part of BTS&rsquo;s wider creative ecosystem.
A New Era of BTS: What To Expect
With all members discharged and a comeback officially on the books, expectations are sky-high. The March 2026 release will likely set a new tone for BTS&mdash;older, wiser, and shaped by personal growth through military service and solo ventures.
J-Hope spoke candidly about this evolution in a Rolling Stone interview: &ldquo;The thoughts I had during those times have become an inseparable part of me, nurturing and shaping who I am today. They have influenced the stories I tell, the music I aspire to create.&rdquo;
There is also speculation that a pre-release single or a special project may precede the official comeback. While HYBE has not confirmed this, such a move would align with the group&rsquo;s tendency to build anticipation with strategic lead-ins.
Countdown Begins
For ARMYs across the globe, the next few months will be filled with anticipation, speculation, and celebration. BTS&rsquo;s return represents more than just a new album&mdash;it&rsquo;s a reunion of brothers, a reconnection with fans, and a renewed era of musical storytelling.
From stadium stages to solo spotlights, BTS has grown, changed, and persevered. Now, united once again, they&rsquo;re ready to remind the world why they remain one of the most influential music acts of the 21st century.
After years of individual growth, the band is back together&mdash;stronger, bolder, and ready to reclaim their global stage. March 2026 can't come soon enough.

BTS Gears Up For First Comeback In March 2026 After Completion Of Their Military Service

With luxury lifestyles, travel vlogs, and sponsored unboxings dominating social media feeds, it&rsquo;s no wonder that many Malaysian youth are increasingly drawn to the idea of becoming full-time content creators. The appeal of turning hobbies into income&mdash;and the hope of achieving viral success&mdash;has even led some to consider abandoning formal education or traditional career paths.
But behind the glamour lies a far more complex reality. Popular culinary content creator Che Nom, known for her meticulously crafted cooking videos and trusted recipes, has taken to social media to deliver a stark and sobering message for those romanticising the creator lifestyle.
&ldquo;It Looks Fun, But There&rsquo;s More Than Meets the Eye&rdquo; 
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/72c1a49549bc884e9ba8faaf45b15dbaad0400ac6005020be1b112871e52c413" />
In a widely shared <a href="https://www.facebook.com/resepichenom/posts/pfbid02FqcPj8oopnjHuRwSzYLPJdx48SeChuraK7nnPBXcL6QLrj8oKyM4yS8oRH231kTjl">Facebook post</a>, Che Nom opened up about the realities of running a content creation business, especially within the highly competitive culinary niche.
&ldquo;Many DM me saying they love cooking and want to start making food videos because they enjoy watching mine,&rdquo; she wrote. &ldquo;But what people often don&rsquo;t realise is that behind every short video is an enormous amount of effort, planning, and financial cost.&rdquo;
According to Che Nom, passion alone is not enough to survive&mdash;let alone succeed&mdash;in the fast-evolving digital content landscape. From high-quality video production and scripting to sound, lighting, recipe development and editing, each video involves multiple layers of labour and expertise.
Revenue vs. Reality: Why Views Don&rsquo;t Always Pay
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/5f3e2939c597efcaf5ecb824c6db6fc347b2d7182335beed1b49bafb4fdeda1c" />
In what may come as a surprise to many, Che Nom revealed just how little ad revenue can be generated from a seemingly successful video. She pointed to a recent reel on Kek Lapis Sarawak, which received over 56,000 views, yet earned her only RM415.40&mdash;and that, she clarified, was more than a month after it was uploaded.
Even more revealing was the financial breakdown of her monthly production costs, which typically fall between RM12,000 and RM16,000 for just 5 to 6 videos:
<ul>
<li>Videographer: RM2,500&ndash;RM3,500</li>
<li>Editor: RM2,500&ndash;RM3,000</li>
<li>Kitchen assistant: RM2,000&ndash;RM2,500</li>
<li>Premium ingredients &amp; repeated recipe testing</li>
<li>Electric usage for ovens (often for hours)</li>
<li>Utilities, props, equipment, and editing software</li>
</ul>
&ldquo;For those just starting out&mdash;if your monthly views don&rsquo;t even hit 300,000, your ad revenue likely won&rsquo;t exceed RM2,500,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s not enough to cover basic costs, let alone make a living.&rdquo;
Seasoned Creators Are Struggling Too
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/42cf9284992b868217e00e1279e8c8a8164818dccdff52c33a4447120303d447" />
Che Nom didn&rsquo;t only speak from the perspective of a newcomer. She made it clear that even experienced content creators are now facing growing difficulties. As audience habits shift toward shorter formats like TikTok, YouTube viewership is declining for many, particularly on older videos that once generated passive income.
&ldquo;Many long-time creators are struggling now,&rdquo; she explained. &ldquo;RPMs (revenue per thousand views) are dropping, and it&rsquo;s getting harder for new videos to perform well. Passive income from older uploads is dwindling, and viewers have become far more selective.&rdquo;
In this environment, low-quality videos simply won&rsquo;t survive. Poor visuals, unclear audio, or lacklustre storytelling will quickly drive users to swipe away.
Burnout and Budget Pressure: The Emotional Toll
One major misconception Che Nom addressed is the belief that having a team lightens the load. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s only half true,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;Yes, a team helps with production, but it also adds to monthly costs. If you go solo, you face burnout. If you hire help, you face higher expenses. Either way, it&rsquo;s tough.&rdquo;
The pressure to consistently produce high-performing content&mdash;combined with rising operational costs and unstable ad revenue&mdash;has led many in the industry to feel stretched thin, both financially and emotionally.
The New Rule: Diversify, Don&rsquo;t Depend on Ads
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2530abe6f858af9771e62d5ec2879a92e99636c01ffa12c2a1651ebaab8d646e" />
One of Che Nom&rsquo;s key messages to aspiring creators was simple but vital: do not rely on YouTube ads alone. Instead, she recommended building multiple revenue streams to support the content business:
<ul>
<li>eBooks: Offering exclusive recipes or guides</li>
<li>Affiliate marketing: Partnering with brands for commission-based promotions</li>
<li>Products: Selling branded merchandise, kitchen tools, or ingredients</li>
<li>Online classes: Hosting paid virtual workshops or tutorials</li>
</ul>
She stressed that creators should only choose monetisation methods that align with their expertise and values, rather than blindly following what&rsquo;s trending.
&ldquo;Find a niche that you&rsquo;re truly good at,&rdquo; she urged. &ldquo;And don&rsquo;t try to compare yourself to someone who&rsquo;s been in the game for a decade.&rdquo;
Final Thoughts: It&rsquo;s Not Just About Glamour&mdash;It&rsquo;s About Grit
Che Nom&rsquo;s message wasn&rsquo;t intended to discourage&mdash;it was meant to ground expectations in reality. She acknowledged the beauty and creative freedom that comes with content creation but reminded her followers that it&rsquo;s also a business that demands planning, resilience, and the willingness to adapt.
&ldquo;Content creation is an art, but the journey is filled with challenges,&rdquo; she concluded. &ldquo;If your passion is genuine, go for it. Just know that success takes more than talent&mdash;it takes strategy, sustainability, and strong mental preparation.&rdquo;
Che Nom&rsquo;s post is a crucial reminder at a time when the dream of going viral seems more accessible than ever. Behind the glossy thumbnails and upbeat vlogs are real people facing real challenges. As she puts it: the dream is worth chasing&mdash;but only with eyes wide open.

Che Nom’s Reality Check: The Hidden Costs And Realities Of Being A Content Creator In Malaysia

Former NCT member Moon Taeil, once a well-loved figure in the K-pop scene, now faces a seven-year prison sentence after pleading guilty to aggravated rape. His first court appearance on 18 June 2025 marks a pivotal moment in a scandal that first erupted in August 2024, when news broke of a foreign woman accusing Taeil of sexual assault while under the influence.
The case sparked immediate backlash, leading to the termination of his contract with SM Entertainment, who cited a complete loss of trust and ongoing criminal investigations. Since then, Taeil had maintained a low profile&mdash;until his silent, sombre arrival at the Seoul Central District Court, almost a year after the crime took place.
The Crime: Planned, Violent, and Targeted
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/eb2c7dfa105cdf2bc1d61324e66eff17adf5d78ebbf86b2d78725462a5f9195a" />
During the proceedings, the prosecution laid out a disturbing timeline of events. In the early hours of 13 June 2024, Taeil and two male associates met the victim&mdash;a Chinese national&mdash;at a bar in Itaewon, Seoul. The woman had no prior relationship with the men. According to prosecutors, the trio targeted her while she was intoxicated, before forcing her into a taxi bound for one of the defendant&rsquo;s homes in Bangbae-dong.
There, between 4:00am and 4:30am, the three men took turns raping the unconscious victim. The prosecution stressed that this was not a spontaneous crime, citing evidence including text messages exchanged between the men in which they acknowledged the victim&rsquo;s foreign nationality and discussed manipulating the taxi&rsquo;s GPS to obscure their true location&mdash;further signalling premeditation.
Surveillance and Digital Evidence
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b8e1dcf6d29ea8d634ceb5f6377f47af1e59da57da89e80c56412902a2694c16" />
The case relied heavily on surveillance footage and digital analysis. Prosecutors revealed it took nearly two months for authorities to review CCTV recordings and accurately reconstruct the suspects&rsquo; movements. The coordinated effort to conceal the crime strengthened the case for aggravated rape&mdash;an offence taken extremely seriously under South Korea&rsquo;s Act on Special Cases Concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes.
Prosecutors described the offence as being carried out with &ldquo;malicious intent and extremely poor moral character&rdquo;, underlining the calculated nature of the defendants&rsquo; actions.
Taeil Pleads Guilty, Cites Remorse and Personal Struggles
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/df2b1fff9fda9bfd009fc9d9ab81181a90cf7d6818a6f5097e0022813f8fc1e5" />
Taeil did not deny the allegations. When questioned by the judge, he clearly stated, &ldquo;I admit to all the charges.&rdquo; Speaking through his lawyer, Taeil expressed deep remorse, citing emotional and psychological distress, including trauma from a past traffic accident, financial struggles, and his current employment at a friend&rsquo;s restaurant.
His defence team added that Taeil had voluntarily surrendered to authorities, was attending ongoing counselling, and had completed sexual assault prevention education. He had also engaged with the victim through legal channels and received a statement from her expressing that she did not wish for further punishment.
&ldquo;I deeply regret the harm caused to the victim and feel great remorse,&rdquo; Taeil told the court in a closing statement. &ldquo;I apologise to everyone who is disappointed in me. If given leniency, I will treat it as the last chance in my life and dedicate myself to contributing positively to society.&rdquo;
Prosecution Unmoved by Apologies
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/08c8c4627f2ae020388ee1552e8bad9af8fc6cd0695b666f0fdd121e19ca5fdf" />
The prosecution, however, challenged the sincerity of Taeil&rsquo;s remorse. They argued that his surrender to police came only after a search and seizure had already been initiated, questioning whether his actions were motivated by accountability or desperation.
They also criticised the implausible claim that the men simply intended to &ldquo;drink more&rdquo; at a residence located far from the initial bar. This, they argued, added to the calculated nature of the crime. The prosecution is seeking not only seven years&rsquo; imprisonment but also a ten-year employment restriction and mandatory disclosure of personal information.
Public Reaction and Industry Backlash
The revelations have deeply shaken the K-pop community. Taeil, who debuted in 2016 as a member of NCT U and later joined NCT 127, was known for his clean image and charitable efforts. However, his continued appearances at group events, including NCT 127&rsquo;s 8th anniversary fan meeting, even after the investigation had begun&mdash;without disclosing the charges&mdash;drew sharp criticism from fans and the public alike.
The backlash led SM Entertainment to announce his contract termination on 15 October 2023, stating that the company could no longer endorse his activities given the severity of the allegations.
Sentencing Date Set for July
The sentencing for Taeil and his co-defendants is scheduled for 10 July 2025 at 2:00pm. All three men remain under investigation without detention, with the court previously ruling that&mdash;since they had confessed&mdash;there was no risk of fleeing or destroying evidence.
As the trial continues to draw national and international attention, the case is increasingly being viewed as a litmus test for accountability in South Korea&rsquo;s entertainment industry, where celebrity scandals are often met with mixed responses. The verdict will likely spark fresh discussions around rape culture, victim protection, and public figures&rsquo; moral responsibilities in South Korea and beyond.
