Star Search 2019 Champ Teoh Zetong Explains Why He’s Willing To Take A Pay Cut To Be An Actor
Carousell guy no more.
Last night (Nov 3), Teoh Zetong had to make a tough decision.
The Carousell associate customer relationship management manager was crowned the winner of Star Search 2019, and he had to make a choice between his corporate career and a life in the spotlight.
