iQIYI Starship 2026 sets sail as top star Esther Yu to make first appearance in Malaysia on April 7


iQIYI International, Asia’s leading streaming platform, has officially announced that iQIYI Starship 2026 will launch its first stop in Malaysia on 7 April 2026.

On that day, iQIYI International Global Ambassador Esther Yu will make a special appearance at Zepp Kuala Lumpur, meeting audiences in Malaysia for the first time.

Following the enthusiastic response to multiple iQIYI Starship activations across Southeast Asia last year, Malaysia has been selected as the first stop of the 2026 tour, reflecting iQIYI’s continued commitment to deepening its presence in the Malaysian market.

Esther Yu was officially appointed iQIYI International Global Ambassador in November last year. Her notable works include Love Between Fairy and Devil (2022), My Journey to You (2023), and Sword and Fairy (2024), all of which are available on iQIYI International.

During the event, she will also respond to the strong support from Malaysian audiences for the iQIYI Original drama Speed and Love (双轨), in which she stars, and share behind-the-scenes stories and insights into her role. 

Speed and Love is an iQIYI Original C-drama. Centered around the world of competitive racing, the series blends themes of growth, self-discovery, and emotional tension. Since its release, the drama has sparked vibrant discussions across Southeast Asia and has emerged as one of the region’s most talked-about C-drama titles.

Participation opportunities for the iQIYI Starship 2026 Malaysia event will be prioritised for iQIYI International Malaysia Annual VIP members.

Further details on participation mechanics and event updates will be announced via iQIYI Malaysia’s official social media platforms.
