I have always been a big fan of magic. Well, yea... I also loved the idea of Fairy Godmother, Genie, Santa, Tooth Fairy, Tinkerbell? When we were younger, I'm sure most of us just wondered if magic existed and how much fun it would be to have them. Look at Harry Potter? Would you wanna be him and go to 'Magic School'? I DEFINITELY WOULD! =P
Recently, I have had the pleasure of meeting a sleight of hand artist/mentalist while being out and about in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. Eventually, I got to know him better and I WISH he would just TEACH ME already! It would be cool, if I started showing you some magic, yea?! =P
Meet Zlwin Chew...

| Ok ok.. no no, they are not twins! |

| One guy with too many bended forks! LOL! |
He is a magician based in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. His interest in magic started off during the early childhood days when his father used to bring his family for magic shows. However, he only got serious in learning the Art of Magic when he saw his friend performing some close-up magic to him many years ago.
Since then he was determined to learn and taught himself magic from a few sources. It was only the beginning. He then ventured further on the magical path. The love for the art of prestidigitation never left him.

| When I say bended forks.... I mean.. all that TWIST! |
Zlwin has met and performed to some of the country's most reknown people. Some of them include:
- The 12th King of Malaysia, Sultan of Perlis, Raja Syed Sirajuddin ibni Syed Putra Jamalullail.
- Former Prime Minister of Malaysia, Tun. Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad.
He currently works for Kuala Lumpur's most prestigious and recognized club, Zouk KL, as their Resident Magician. He comes into the clubbing scene bringing magic - a whole new and radical idea in Malaysia. Currently, he is the only magician holding a residence in a club in the whole of Kuala Lumpur. Being familiar with the clubbing environment, he is able to incorporate magic very well into his stints at night.
Performing magic in crowded areas with low lightings and very loud music is no stranger to Zlwin. He is able to capture his audience's attention quickly and blow them off with his effects - leaving them with a clubbing experience they will never forget.

You might also know him as Samsung Malaysia's official brand ambassador and has completed numerous projects with them including the launch of Samsung’s new phone in Oman, Middle East! Ultimately, jealous! He gets to travel the world and show off his skills! He was also in India before to perform his magic!
Me thinks he's definitely going somewhere with his magic. I am already very much in wonderment watching him going around the world sharing his love for magic! His recent work includes performing for Louis Vuitton and Roger Dubuis La Monegasque!
If you ever find yourself in need of a magician! Here's someone cool to consider! Bold, fresh and always a new magic up his sleeve to keep you always entertained!
What is Magic? Is magic an illusion? A mere trick of the mind? Or just a sleight of hand? To return to innocence, when the world was magical, when logic gave way to wonder - this is Magic. Your mind, my stage. It's funny, the older we grow, the more we know. We lose our ability to feel amazed, to feel the joy of childlike awe. There are no tricks in magic, only wonder. - Zlwin Chew
