Concerts are all about the hype—the lights, the crowd, and the thrill of seeing your favourite artists live.

But in Malaysia, there’s something special that happens before the show even starts.

Instead of jumping straight into the music, major concerts often kick off with a patriotic moment: the playing of the national anthem, Negaraku.

This unique tradition recently took an Indonesian fan by surprise at a 2NE1 concert held during the Chinese New Year holidays.

Expecting the show to start with a bang, they were instead greeted by an entire stadium standing in respect as Negaraku played through the speakers.
