I saw Joakim on CNA a few weeks ago and I was telling my mum about his admirable resilience and how I wish I'm like this too! I remember how much hate he got back then, and how hard he worked over the years, found his niche and how successful well-liked he is as a radio and event host. And he also seems veryyyyyy humble. Great role model. (And the hate comments were ridiculous, it was just a talent show lol. Don't like then change channel lah. No need to feel so strongly about it and waste time and energy to type horrible comments.)
i think it's safe to say you have earned our respect well and beyond, joakim. love watching you talk about how much you enjoy doing the ndp shows. that light in your eyes man 🤩 thanks for being real and oh happy birthday :)
People really need to realise that their hate comments on social media can deeply affect the person involved. To them it's just a comment posted without much thought and hidden behind a screen, but to the person involved, it's very hurtful. It's amazing that Joakim could come out of this a lot stronger, but those days must've been really dark for him especially being on a public platform. I used to post some stuff of my Parkour learning journey on Tiktok, and my videos went viral for the wrong reasons and got lots of hate comments. People called me all sorts of things on there, compared me to my famous husband that is the face of Parkour in Singapore, and there were even some comments telling me to go k*ll myself, and death threats. Same goes to some of the ladies in my Parkour class who posted videos of themselves as absolute beginners because they were so happy to share their love for this sport. We all got very affected by the hate and at some point wanted to stop celebrating our progress cuz we felt so afraid and ashamed due to the comments. Glad we did not stop!
Its quite sad to hear all the negative comments that were thrown at him n how much it affected the 18 yrs old soul very deeply. Thats the harsh reality of the entertainment industry but hey at least ur successful now n u proved them wrong. Jiayou Joakim...n yeah u still look good btw
I see Joakim as a survivor. It's not easy being a public figure. He's very natural and such a good professional host for ndp and other events. Just work for the money and your future, Joakim.
Joakim, I don’t know you personally but I must say I’m proud of you. Now in My early forties and a father of 3, I remember tuning in to 98.7FM One fine Day in My Car just to reminisce My youth, than I heard you introducing yourself in your segment. I thought to Myself. “Hey Wait a min… Isn’t this the kid from One of the Singapore Idols?? Not bad, not too bad at all.” Happy to see you doing well kid! Tough Times don’t last, ONLY tough Men do! Keep it up! 💪🏻👍🏻
Hey Joakim! I feel you! Making your way through these tough stages in life. You made it as a great host, a DJ and did well 👏🏻 You are who you are and keep your genuine laugh going! Happy for you! 🫰🏻💪🏻 Cheers~
Gosh I didn’t know so many people watched Singapore Idol - I totally missed that! All of it actually! Absolutely no idea that Joakim was even in it until now! But the joakim i know - hey man, great host and DJ and always upbeat and infectious - you doing well! (Yes yes I’m clueless about the local scene)
Comments made by the judges were for “entertainment effect”. But it can hurt if you take it too seriously. Sometimes the issue tend to magnify within ourselves when we pay too much attention to it. In actuality, not everyone watched SG Idol. And I was one of them. 😁 So don’t be too hard on yourself. We always feel like 💩when we are deep in the matter but once we are able to walk out of it, it’s just another episode in life.
0:03 reminds me of viviane bala. He seems to b as eloquent as bala. Reminds me of Bala's most famous debate with K Shanmugam,back when bala used to be a student and had a spirit of rebelion.
dayum just how bad was him on Singapore idol for the judges to be so harsh as well? and if he is really so bad how did he get into top 5 was singapore idol just based off popularity votes 😭
Used to like Singapore idol, american idol, even new ones like the voice shows... but i can tell its all rig. Example... Asian next top model lol.... hate it bcs .... not motivating. Should give good advice etc or good guidance ker... lol. Where's ken lim today erm. Entah
Now, look at where you are at, and where Ken Lim is. Life.
And now you are one of the most known hosts in SG!

BRING BACK SINGAPORE IDOL FOR ONCE.
Better not. The show comes to the finals... its super rig. HAHAHA

Why can't people in Singapore just be nice for once? Not everything you see has to be criticized man
His nervousness clearly showed from the consistent leg shaking. Poor boy.
Man, imagine if the Monkey reference was made in this day and age
Happy birthday Joakim!
happy birthday Joakim 🎉

Big fan of Joakim! Keep it up mate! 🤩🤙🏻
Have a feeling one day Joakim will host the next iteration/incarnation of Singapore Idol
Can you do a “where are they now” singapore idol version
The comments in Singapore idol were uncalled for 18 year olds.
🎉😂😂 now ²⁰²³, Gorgeous Joakim Gomez Gorgeous 😘 favourite DJ in Sg 😅😊❤
You did good for a 18 year old back then la! *top up your credit
he actually had a nice voice, just needed proper training. disagree with ken's comments that he sounds "naturally bad".
i too am in that "low phase of life phase" so i understand the pain.
sending you lots of good energy and support! 🤍🤍🤍
@@YouGotWatch thanks a lot :) means a lot to me.
Respect
dayum just how bad was him on Singapore idol for the judges to be so harsh as well? and if he is really so bad how did he get into top 5 was singapore idol just based off popularity votes 😭
