MEN'S FOLIO Malaysia Magazine - December 2024 - January 2025

In this issue

As the year draws to a close, we take on another empty slate with the renewed vigour of potential hopes and dreams. But before we get to that, we must first take the time to reflect, and this issue’s theme of “Coming Full Circle” allows us to explore exactly that.

We have Nadhir Nasar speaking about how he does not want to be the spectacle despite his fame. We have Amir Ahnaf, Aedy Ashraf, and Sky Iskandar exploring what it takes to grow up as a man, especially in Malaysia. We have timekeeping stories to remind us that time moves on, despite the events that pass us by, both large and small. We also ask the Men’s Folio Malaysia team what their favourite milestone of 2024 is.

Regardless of the time of the year, we should always be mindful that the present is all we have, and soon, we will come full circle once more.

CHARTING THE IN BETWEEN

If there is anything the last 15 years has taught Seo In Guk, it is that the actor, singer - and recently - director should not be afraid of taking charge about the narratives that surrounds his life. Speaking with Men's Folio, he shares how he has moved away from seeking perfection, and that the best kinds of gestures come from none other than yourself.
