Park Shin Hye 박신혜 at ITSU massage chair promotion - 1 Utama (27 July 2025)

































Park Shin Hye’s fans are in for a treat.  After an absence of almost 9 years , Park has finally step foot in Malaysia once again.  This time, as the ambassador of ITSU’s new massage chair, “VVS”. The good news is ITSU has lined- up two special appearances instead of merely one session.  The first function is at 1Utama, followed by another at IOI mall.  The event was very well organized and started on-time (no long unnecessary delay like the dreaded Bonia event last year).  There is no overzealous security blocking fans’ view or allocating prominent spots for “syok sendiri” (self absorbed) influencers/KOLs. Genuine fans are given the priority to be at close range with the “Judge from hell” star.  Kudos to the event organizer and ITSU ! Even the emcee was a breeze of fresh air (fluent in Malay, English and Chinese) and not lame like most of MYFM’s deejays. Prior to Park’s appearance, a local dance group entertained the audience with a medley of k-pop hits for around 15 minutes.  Donning a white dress with hair extension (she was spotted with a short hair- do at the airport), Park exudes such elegant aura as she made her way to the stage.  Park greeted the elated fans and officiated the event by autographing the VVS massage chair before moving on to a short Q&A session (watch the clips for more details). Apparently ITSU’s VVS Empress is no ordinary massage chair.  Aside from having the massage feature, it also comes with a state of the art vibrating mode which aids weight loss without having to exert yourself physically.  The size is pretty small, just nice for home owners who doesn’t have much space to spare. Park shared that usually she is tired when filming commercial but it’s not the case this time. She felt relax and very comfortable as she is able to enjoy the multiple features of the massage chair during the commercial shoot.  I have to admit the size and slimming function have piqued my interest as well. ITSU clients also have the chance of taking a group photo with the celebrity. Park also mentioned that her fave k-pop song at the moment is “Golden” (the song from Netflix’s “Kpop Demon Hunters”). Park received massive accolades recently after her kpop dance routine at her 2025 fans meeting went viral. Her cool and skillful dance moves left many surprised and captivated.  





Charmaine Sheh 佘詩曼 at the grand opening of On Lee Noodle Shop at Pavilion KL - 26 July 2025






















On Lee Noodle Shop has been gradually building up the hype in social media about their grand opening at Pavilion KL , which happens to be their first overseas venture.  The main draw is of course, having the ever popular Charmaine Sheh gracing the opening ceremony.  Charmaine looks stunning in a fiery red dress, as she sashayed on the red carpet, surrounded by sea of fans. What a sight to behold !   Charmaine is visibly touched by the enthusiastic reception from the local supporters.  It’s been two years since her last trip to Malaysia, for the location shoot of TVB drama, “Heir To The Throne”.  Charmaine shared that she is a regular and longtime patron of On Lee Noodles.  She highly recommends their noodles with fish balls.  Also, shared that On Lee Noodles has revamped their menu to include some local dishes, in-order to suit the local tastebud.   Charmaine revealed that she had just wrapped-up the sequel of “Queen of News” and is currently taking a break from shooting.  Hence, this time around, her mom joined her for the short excursion to KL (for both biz and pleasure).   Charmaine expressed that she is always thrilled to be back in Malaysia and thanked On Lee for the opportunity to meet the local fans whom many were  longtime avid supporters.  Now that she is free from filming commitment, she jokingly said she could enjoy her food binge here without having to worry about gaining weight.  Yes, she has already treated herself to durian upon arrival.  She certainly aged like fine wine, such   smooth complexion and with a super hot body to boot.  She definitely looks at least 15-20 years younger than her actual age, 50 year old !! From my observation, the only HK actress who can draw such massive turnout is only Charmaine.  Fan club members also gifted her with the Thai limited edition Labubu and a Doraemon cake.
