About Johan Juling

Johan Juling, whose real name is Johan Pria Utama, is an Indonesian stand-up comedian from Makassar who built his signature material around his own strabismus, known in Indonesian slang as juling, turning the condition into recurring bits such as acting out a sniper aiming down a scope or walking sideways like a crab. He is associated with the Stand Up Indo Makassar community and has taken his material to public events such as the DemiIndonesia gathering in Makassar, where he combined comedy with messages encouraging voters to reject money politics. He competed on the fourth season of Stand Up Comedy Academy on Indosiar, performing his strabismus-based routine under mentor Gilang Bhaskara, and was later selected as one of eleven finalists in the nationwide Comic 8 Revolution talent competition, organized around Falcon Pictures' long-running Comic 8 film franchise, which earned him an exclusive studio contract. His comedy is frequently shared on social media, where clips of his physical comedy and self-deprecating material about his eye condition circulate among Indonesian stand-up audiences.
