The Sunway Pyramid Ice Skating Rink holds a special place in the hearts of many, especially those who grew up in the 1990s. It's a popular destination for families and friends seeking weekend getaways and a favourite spot for romantic outings among couples.
Recently, a Malaysian netizen named Jevon shared a video on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book) capturing a heartwarming marriage proposal at the ice skating rink, igniting a wave of discussions and amassing over 4,000 likes.
Jevon recounted how, on the evening of April 4th, while leaving the cinema and heading back to school, he stumbled upon a romantic proposal at the ice skating rink. He couldn't resist capturing the moment and exclaimed, "So romantic! The guy appears genuinely sincere. If I were the girl, I'd be deeply moved."
In the video, a prominent "Will you marry me" sign adorned the centre of the ice rink, complemented by flowers, balloons, and sentimental music, setting a picturesque and romantic ambience. The couple glided gracefully to the centre, with the girl assisted by a charming seal-shaped skating aid.
The video left viewers intrigued about the outcome, but to their surprise, the official Sunway Pyramid Ice Skating Rink account later commented on the post, revealing that the proposal was successful. The girl said yes!
Further details emerged as officials shared the couple's backstory, revealing their nearly decade-long long-distance relationship and the sentimental significance of the ice skating rink, a cherished spot for their dates, making the proposal even more meaningful.
Despite the heartwarming moment, some netizens couldn't help but notice the girl being assisted by the skating aid, leading to playful remarks aimed at the guy for not lending her a hand.
Additionally, Topaz Events, responsible for orchestrating the proposal setup, shared another video highlighting the novelty of witnessing a proposal on the ice, likening it to a scene from a romantic drama.
Addressing criticism about the guy's lack of assistance, the company defended him, attributing it to nerves and the pressure of delivering his lines during the proposal, emphasizing the beautiful memories created despite the momentary lapse.
Congratulations poured in for the newly engaged couple, with well-wishers expressing hopes for a lifetime of happiness together!
