Rows Of Young Artists Who Celebrate Chinese New Year: Morgan Oey Away From Family, Catheez Who Is WAITing For Angpao Transfer

JAKARTA - Chinese New Year is one of the big days in Indonesia, especially for those who have Chinese descent.

In the Chinese New Year tradition, angpao is one of the things that is most memorable. Angpao itself is a symbol of concern and also joy among each other, especially for those in need. In its rules, angpao is generally given by married couples or older people to younger ones.

At this Chinese New Year celebration, it is interesting to see the activities of young unmarried artists. Having a busy schedule, such as Morgan Oey, can't gather with family. Meanwhile, the model who is also a young actress Zoe Levana has to miss some traditions because of her busy schedule.

Hal menarik diungkap oleh streamer yang kerap diundang banyak program televisi, Catheez. Karena sibuknya, ia tidak bisa berkumpul dengan keluarga, namun ia mengatakan masih menunggu kiriman angpao dari keluarga.

The following is a summary of the activities carried out by several young unmarried artists collected by the VOI team.

Morgan Oey

The actor who started his career through the smash group also celebrated Chinese New Year. However, because Morgan was in Australia, he had to go through this year's celebration without gathering with his family.

Through his Insta Story, Morgan showed a moment when he made a video call with his family who were in Indonesia. It appears that his family is showing off a red angpao with a pig that is a symbol this year.

Catheez

Similar to Morgan, Catherine Alicia or commonly known as Catheez also celebrated this year's Chinese New Year without gathering with her family. "This year's Chinese New Year's Catheez is not with her parents for the first time, because she is super busy," he said when contacted by the VOI team on Sunday, January 22.

Due to his busy schedule, he could only celebrate Chinese New Year with his younger brother who really stayed with him in Jakarta. However, he took the time to communicate with his family in Surabaya via video call.

"So this year's Lunar New Year's Catheez sleeps with video calls with family. It's the same as waiting for family angpao transfers," he said.

Catheez also took the time to celebrate Chinese New Year with his close friends in Jakarta. Through his Instagram account, he uploaded a photo of himself with Livy Renata wearing traditional Chinese clothes.

Unlike her best friend Catheez, Livy celebrates Chinese New Year with her family, who mostly live in Jakarta. "I'm her Chinese New Year eating at a restaurant with family," she said when contacted.

Through her Instagram account, Livy also uploaded herself who was doing a photo shoot with the original theme. "Happy Chinese New Year. Sorry I haven't been active for the stories," she wrote in the upload.

Zoe Levana

Supermodel Zoe Levana, who has a lot of work in Jakarta, has agreed to gather with her family in Surabaya to celebrate Chinese New Year this year.

However, because of his busy schedule, Zoe had to go through some of the traditions she used to do before. Usually, Zoe celebrates several traditions such as eating together, releasing birds into the air and flying lanterns.

"This year, I didn't participate in releasing the birds, because they were very busy. So we were celebrating the event, just eating with the family," said Zoe Levana when contacted.

Zoe herself assessed that the traditions that exist in Chinese New Year must be maintained. The reason is, Chinese New Year is an important moment for great families to meet each other. "We as a family will be one, and hopefully in the future we will be protected from all the crimes that will befall the family," he said.
