Jihyunie

Malaysian Hijab Cosplayer

Salam and Hi, Welcome to our Hijab Cosplay Website's Online Interview! Tell us briefly about yourself in your own words that is related to how you started to cosplay.

It all started in December 2017, when my eldest sister brings me to Comic Fiesta at KLCC. She has always been a fan of anime and cosplaying but I was not really feeling it because of my hijab. However, my sister convinced me by showing Ai Nurul's Instagram profile so I feel like "why not" LOL. After that, I started doing my own research on hijab cosplay, make more friends and here I am today!
