00:00 [music]
00:08 Good evening, Kapuso!
00:09 I am your brother, Kim, who will give you a trivia behind the trending news.
00:13 In Jensen, I have a guess.
00:15 Because of their cool voices and high performance level,
00:19 you will definitely be excited to scream "PATAWAN PO!"
00:21 [music]
00:26 Tiak Silent Night no more if they are your Caroling.
00:30 [singing]
00:32 Their singing is so good, even their lyrics are...
00:35 ...like it's wrong.
00:38 The viral viruteras that we found here in General Santos City,
00:43 Baby Shark and Jimmy, the Caroling Divas.
00:46 Unexpected. We are so happy that we are viral.
00:49 Even back then, they were asked to sing two songs.
00:55 Until they thought of their Caroling in their barangay.
00:57 [singing]
01:03 We are happy when we are Caroling because we earn a lot.
01:06 We also appreciate the people.
01:08 Kim, when did the Caroling tradition start here in the Philippines?
01:13 Brother Kim, what's up?
01:15 Our Christmas is incomplete if we don't hear the Caroling.
01:18 This tradition was passed on to us by the Spaniards back then.
01:22 In Spain, there are groups or choirs that sing "Villancicos".
01:26 Because of the long period of time that we were surrounded by the Spaniards,
01:30 we Filipinos also became used to the song "Villancicos" every Christmas.
01:33 But not only that, we also heard it on the streets and in our homes.
01:37 In the 1890s, the Christmas Carols were sung by Filipino composers.
01:42 Like "Invitation for Nativity" and "Responsarium" by Marcelo Adonay.
01:46 [singing]
01:48 Fast forward to 2023, there are so many Christmas Carols that Filipinos can choose.
01:52 They can sing in English or Tagalog.
01:54 Meanwhile, Caroling Divas are still living in their homes to give gifts.
01:58 Now, they are invited to sing in left and right parties and events in Jensan.
02:04 Before, we were not trending viral.
02:07 400. Now, sir, it's really high.
02:10 It's really helpful.
02:11 It's our daily needs, sir.
02:12 Because our life changed, the way Caroling is done also changed.
02:17 [chanting]
02:19 It's more creative and enterprising.
02:21 If you do it well, you will get more money.
02:25 But the joy of Caroling is not complete without the noise of these.
02:29 The sound of the tambourine drums is what gives life to the songs of Caroling kids.
02:40 But did you know that "tansan" is not our local term in bottle caps or the covers of our drinks?
02:47 It's from a brand of carbureted water from Japan that became famous in the Philippines in 1902.
02:52 Clifford Wilkinson Tansan Mineral Water Company Ltd.
02:57 used the bottle cap as a cover for their drinks.
03:01 Meanwhile, to find out the latest trending viral news, tweet or comment #KuyaKimWhatNow?
03:06 Always remember, what's important is what's known.
03:09 I'm Kuya Kim and I'll see you in 24 hours.
