Julian and Justin's First Competition

Julian and Justin joined their kindergarten friends in their first competition in public. It was on 20 October 2012 at 1st Avenue, Penang. It was the Penang leg of their kindy franchise's "Idol" competition. Their kindergarten competed against the other Penang branches.

Justin danced to the tune of the Lion Sleeps Tonight. Julian did some acting/dancing to the music of Be Prepared from the Lion King, and some Gangnam Style dancing.

They were given medals for participation but their group items did not win any of the main prizes. Nevertheless, they had fun.
