Ku percaya selalu ada sesuatu di Jogja (In Jogja, there's always something rare)

A glimpse of song lyrics from “Sesuatu di Jogja” (Something in Jogja), made well-known by Adhitia Sofyan in 2017, truly holds profound meaning. It beautifully captures the uniqueness of Yogyakarta, a city overflowing with charm, constantly attracting people.
