Boyfriend Malachite

Erik van Rijn bin Witjaksono (born November 10, 1996), known mostly by his online name Boyfriend Malachite, is an Insulindian YouTuber, singer-songwriter and film director based in Jakarta. Most of his content consists of Friday Night Funkin' gameplays, reaction videos and skits, all in the Standard Insulindian Malay (SIM) language. However he has secondary channels in Betawi Malay and Dutch.

He is best known for wearing his characteristic red-blue cap, which is that of the central character Boyfriend, and malachite-colored jacket, hence his username. He also speaks with an autotune and high-pitched voice filter to resemble Boyfriend's "beeping" talk.
