Dunia Generasi Baru (English: The World of New Generation) is a 2015 Malaysian youth-oriented television drama series directed by Johan Bahar with a script by Wan Hasliza Wan Zainuddin, inspired by the TV series, Dunia Baru. It aired from 16 April 2015 to 9 July 2015 on Slot Aurora TV9. [1]
The story of six teenagers Norelle, Zuhal, Zahra, Rik, Siska and Aman who have various personalities and quirks. Everything is united and embroidered with the value of friendship that is sure to entertain the audience. Norelle (Kaka Azraff) is a lively and childish girl who is easy to get along with and is often a good listener and advisor. [2]
Because of that, sometimes Norelle has to spend a lot of her time solving the problems of the people around her. Aman (Erwin Dawson) always tries to act 'cool' even though his actions always make others misunderstand. A funny person who likes to have his conversations in a 'rap' way. Aman shares a room with Zuhal (Ben Amir), a handsome man who is spoiled by the luxury of his family. Although Zuhal is easily angered, the two are close friends. Rik (Fadlan Hazim) also has his own story and is somewhat mysterious.
Zahra (Zahirah Macwilson), a sweet girl from a simple family. She was initially hostile to Norelle, but then they became good friends. So was Siska (Natasha Elyzza), the daughter of a rock star who tried to escape the spotlight and refused to use her father as an advantage. Full of challenges, these six teenagers had to face their own problems in going to university and maintaining their friendship. However, there was no easy way out because more and more conflicts befell them. [3]
Behind the diverse attitudes of her female friends, Norelle also faced male friends who also had their own problems. They consisted of Aman who was cunning and liked to deceive his parents. Zuhal, the son of a wealthy man who was egotistical and lived on money. Meanwhile, Rik was a casanova who liked to play with love. Meanwhile, Zuhal had made a bet with Rik to seduce Zahra. If Rik succeeded in making Zahra fall in love, Rik would be able to own his Vespa.
