On 24/12, Sukamuljo posted photos for the first time after a long absence, quickly attracting online attention. The images showed Sukamuljo had gained weight compared to last year, while his wife maintained her slender figure after giving birth.

Netizens jokingly commented: "Sukamuljo isn't worried about staying in shape? If he gains more weight, his wife might consider finding a new husband," and "Playing strenuous badminton is nothing compared to marrying a wealthy woman, it's so much easier." Many also remarked, "Sukamuljo truly hit the jackpot; his wife is both beautiful and rich."

Born in 1995, Sukamuljo was hailed by Indonesian media as a "rare badminton genius of two decades" due to his exceptional speed and technique. However, limitations in his backcourt attacking ability and an overly technical, less practical playing style prevented him from advancing further in his career.

Sukamuljo once held the world no. one ranking in men's doubles according to the Badminton World Federation (BWF) and was considered one of the best players of his generation. He won titles including the All England Open in 2017 and 2018, the World Superseries Finals in 2017, and the ASIAD in 2018. He also contributed to the Indonesian national team's victories at the SEA Games in 2015, the Asia Team Championships in 2018 and 2020, and the Thomas Cup in 2020.

Alongside his teammate Marcus Gideon, Sukamuljo formed the renowned men's doubles pair nicknamed "Minions." This moniker stemmed from their modest height combined with an agile, flexible playing style, characterized by quick, jumping movements reminiscent of the popular animated characters from the movie Despicable Me.

Sukamuljo and Gideon once dominated Badminton World Federation (BWF) tournaments, holding the men's doubles world no. one position for a total of 234 weeks, including 214 consecutive weeks. Despite this, they never won a men's doubles championship at major tournaments, securing only one individual gold medal at the 2018 ASIAD.

Sukamuljo's wife, Valencia Tanoesoedibjo, comes from a wealthy family. Her father owns a major media conglomerate in Indonesia, with holdings across numerous television channels, magazines, newspapers, and involvement in the entertainment industry. In 2016, Forbes Indonesia ranked him among the country's billionaires.

Sukamuljo and his wife's wedding featured four major ceremonies, including one in France held at a luxurious castle, with private jets transporting guests, and fireworks valued at tens of thousands of USD. One year after their marriage, the couple welcomed their first daughter.

Currently, Sukamuljo has chosen a "peaceful" life, enjoying family happiness. The online community views him as a prime example of an enviable prosperous life: a successful sports career, a fulfilling marriage, and stable finances.
