Rancangan pemotoran terkenal iaitu Top Gear Korea kini kembali untuk musim ke 7. Ia bakal bersiaran mulai 25 Oktober 2016 jam 9 malam di KIX HD (Saluran 729). Ikuti temubual eksklusif Selebriti Online bersama Hong Jong-Hyun.
Could you tell us a bit about Top Gear Korea S7?
Top Gear Korea is my most favourite automobile TV program among the others and I am grateful to the producers who offered me the opportunity to take part in this program.
Why must we watch Top Gear Korea S7? What is interesting in Top Gear Korea S7 compared to the previous seasons? How do you work with the other co-hosts?
There are always reckless but interesting challenges throughout the program, and I think it’s good to have 4 MCs in total, which is something interesting. Our personalities and strengths are all different and the synergy among us works well.
What is biggest challenge for you on Top Gear Korea S7 and why?
I like automobiles and so I am happy that I can do what I enjoy in the program. I always talk while driving and I felt a bit strange about it in the beginning. But once I started, I got used to it.
What is the most unforgettable experience in Top Gear Korea S7 and why?
I began to like automobiles because of drifting. My most unforgettable moment throughout the program was when I met the champion in drifting in Gunma Prefecture in Japan. The driver’s seat is on the right in Japan and so it’s a bit difficult for me in the beginning. I learnt and enjoyed a lot during the shooting.
Which car would you choose in this season and why?
Design, interior, color, sound are all the factors that have to be considered when choosing a car. I like cars which are fun to drive. Everyone has a different standard on what makes their dream car. I don’t particularly fancy a “super car” but rather a car that is fun to drive. The most important thing for me is the balance between the performance of the automobile and the driving experience.
Who are the celebrity guests that you like best in this season and why?
I would say (singer) John Park. I heard that he drives only once or twice a year but he had an outstanding lap time. He really surprised me.

The Livescape Grouptoday announced the merger of both the Rockaway Malaysia MotoGP Weekend shows to a one day explosive rock festival on October 29 at B Hillstand, Sepang International Circuit. The festival, which was originally meant to be a two-day affair, will now see Scorpions, Wolfmother, The Darkness, Wings, and Muzza’s Mayhem share the stage. The venue remains unchanged.
Organisers said the decision to merge both show was due to scheduling conflicts.
“We have decided to merge the two-day festival to just a one-day event due to a scheduling and production conflict with one of the headlining acts. However, this may well be a blessing in disguise as our fans ultimately benefit from this. With the merger of both shows, single-day ticket holders will now also be able to catch more international acts on a single billing”, Rahul Kukreja, Director of Live Events of The Livescape Group said.
Tickets purchased for both single-day passes either for Day 1 (Oct 29) or Day 2 (Oct 30) are still valid and will be granted entry into the merged show. Refunds however will be provided to those who purchased single-day Day 2 passes (Oct 30) and cannot make it to the festival on Oct 29. For more information, fans are encouraged to contact Livescape at ask@livescape.asia.

The Armin Only Embrace has added Jakarta and Singapore to the 2017 global tour. The Grammy-nominated Dutch DJ/producer Armin van Buuren and
internationally acclaimed artistes (Mr. Probz, Kensington, Eric Vloeimans & Cimo Fränkel, Angel Taylor, BullySongs and Betsie Larkin) are set to perform in Jakarta’s Jiexpo Kemayoran (March 31, 2017) and Singapore at The Meadow, Gardens By The Bay (March 31, 2017).The announcement of the Jakarta and Singapore leg of the world tour adds to the legendary sold-out shows in Marbella, Spain; Sofia, Bulgaria; Jerusalem, Israel; Istanbul, Turkey; Minsk, Belarus; Mexico City, Mexico and more.
Armin Only Embrace in Jakarta and Singapore are the only two Southeast Asian line-up next year. The world tour is a culmination of the five-time (DJ Mag) world No. 1 DJ’s long-time collaborations with different artists, embracing various styles and music genres. This is the cinematic presentation of van Buuren’s vast and eclectic body of work, which is the crux of Armin Only Embrace.Fans can expect a rather different journey at these shows this time round. Armin Only Embrace is a musical exploration of a brand new world tour, as van Buuren ignites an electrifying fourhour spectacular with a cast of musicians, presenting a myriad of electronic and live sounds, set against the backdrop of a theatrical multi-million dollar production of dazzling lights and pyros that is set to awe fans.
MULTI-SENSORY MUSIC & THEATRICAL MULTI-GENRE PRESENTATION
Presenting not just electronic music, pop, hip hop, jazz, house and rock music will also take centre stage. Both events are expected to draw a cross section of music fans as it did in other cities.
MULTI-SENSORY EXPERIENCE
van Buuren describes his upcoming shows as one that will be of a multi-sensory experience. He says: “It’s the biggest thing I’ve ever done. It’s theatre meets
performance arts and electronic music, as the show combines elements from theatre, dance, singers, live music and more. I’m very excited to bring this to Jakarta and Singapore, as it is very different from what music fans have seen or heard so far.”In Jakarta, the show is organised by The Livescape Group and Euphorics Events. The Livescape Group is an established Singapore/Kuala Lumpur headquartered youthcentric music and creative events group of companies, while the Jakarta-based Euphorics Events brings quality and unique music acts in Indonesia.
In Singapore, the event is organised by The Multiply in collaboration with The Livescape Group and ALDA Events. The Multiply is a Singapore-based integrated creative lifestyle outfit focused on creating new and innovative experiences. ALDA Events is a Dutch-based events agency that has organised over 160 shows in more than 33 countries.Adds Muhammad Iqbal ,Group CEO of The Livescape Group: “This is a high octane and world-class conceptual production that’s not to be missed. Armin Only Embrace is van Buuren’s biggest production to date of the critically-acclaimed world tour with powerhouse performances from a prodigious collective of guest artistes.”
One of the many highlights of Armin Only Embrace is his vinyl set in Part 2 of the show – a throwback to van Buuren’s beginnings.
Armin van Buuren returns in 2016 with a new world tour as a man driven by an unbridled and relentless passion for music.The new tour is called ARMIN ONLY EMBRACE based on Armin’s new album, which was released this fall. Embrace, the new album from Armin van Buuren, embraces a wide variety of musical styles; the rocky sound of Kensington, the jazzy sound of Eric Vloeimans’ trumpet, Mr Probz and his hip hop voice.
On my new album Embrace, I am trying to express the feeling how I experience a world full of music. As a DJ/producer, I want to connect people to this world full of inspiring combinations. An endless universe of possibilities is waiting to be embraced. Everything is possible. The way I listen to music is the same way I approach life – with open arms, accepting all that’s unfamiliar and different. Being surprised by something unknown every single day; like a new idea, a different culture, or an encounter with an unfamiliar person. In that world, I can be myself and embrace all new experiences.
Let’s venture into uncharted territory, starting this brand new adventure together. Embrace.
Armin Only Embrace is a solo set by Armin van Buuren with live performances of internationally acclaimed artists as Mr. Probz, Kensington, Eric Vloeimans, Cimo Fränkel, Betsie Larkin, Angel Taylor and BullySongs. The Armin Only Embrace world tour is closely related to Armin van Buuren’s latest artist album, ‘Embrace’, in which the five-time #1 DJ of the world embraces different styles, genres, and sounds through collaborations with a wide range of internationally acclaimed artists.
The majority of these artists, including Mr. Probz, Kensington, Eric Vloeimans, Cimo Fränkel, Betsie Larkin, Angel Taylor and BullySongs will accompany the world-renowned DJ and producer on tour. Armin Only Embrace is a dance event like none other. It is where theatre and dance music merge into one immersive show.
In Jakarta, the event is organised by TheLivescape Group and Euphorics Events. InSingapore, it is organised by The Livescape Group and The Multiply.

The event is called MIFF 2016 and is also known as the MALAYSIA INDIAN FASHION FESTIVAL 2016 organized by an established Malaysian event agency, Fusion Media Productions Sdn. Bhd. MIFF 2016 is the brainchild of Kishvin, the CEO of Fusion Media and together with a group of influential Malaysian people including celebrities, supermodels, well‐known designers and event producers who share one thing in common‐ a desire to create a platform that will showcase the many God given talents that exist in our country, and to show how unique Malaysian fashion truly is.If there is one word that summarizes what MIFF 2016 is all about, it would be ‘fusion’. We want to show a fusion of cultures; a fusion of styles; a fusion of high fashion and everyday fashion; and also a fusion of the modern and the traditional. In line with this, our theme for MIFF 2016 is “Trendy‐tional”, and our tagline is “Where real fashion meets true passion”.
Even though the name might suggest otherwise, Malaysia Indian Fashion Festival is not only about Indian designers. Instead, it is open to any designer who has injected an element of Indian‐style or Bollywood design, motifs and themes in their design(at least 10%) The reason for this is that we would like MIFF 2016 to show that the cultures of Malaysia are not separate from one another. Malaysia is in fact a diverse country, and our different races and cultures influence each other to create an amazing mash‐up of styles and designs. This is what makes us unique as a country and this is what we would like to share with the world.
MIFF 2016 will showcase a total of 16 designers in 2 categories.The first being Trendsetter ‐Emerging which features upcoming designers. The Emerging segment will kick start at 3.30pm with a special handloom showcase which comprises of normal everyday people instead of models . It will be interesting to find outwhat makes handloom so special and how it was the beginning. The main highlight will be the Premier – Elite category which will showcase 9 designers from Malaysia, Singapore, India and Iran. It is the grand gala night that will take place from 7.30p.m onwards. Some of the names we have lined up are Sarvenaz (Iran), Vineetha Goel (India),J Calista (Singapore),Hari Haran, Rasta Rashid, Harsimrit , Joshua Benedict,Mora Laree, Zeel Bridal, SS Couture from Malaysia and many others.
