Malaysia has produced a lot of talented individuals over the years, and now we even have our own oppa!
Ladies and gentlemen, meet the young and handsome Isaac Voo from Kota Kinabalu, Sabah!
For those wondering how Isaac became femes, this Sabahan lad actually quickly shot to fame after he participated in an idol survival programme called BOYS24. This programme commenced in August 2016 with 27 participating members who then began their series of concerts. They have reportedly completed 260 concerts since then. That’s impressive!
The ultimate goal of this show is to narrow down the participants to nine members to form the all-boy group, BOYS24. In the end, seven members were selected based on the accumulated points while two more were selected by the agency. Malaysian fans were of course, absolutely delighted to hear that Isaac was announced as one of the finalists who will now be part of the new K-pop group, BOYS24. Daebak!
