00:00Kate Valdez will be watching the new GMA Afternoon Prime
00:04the Philippine adaptation of the hit Korean drama series, The Shining Inheritance.
00:08Kate will play the role of Inna Villarazon in the series.
00:12How is the preparation of Sparkle Star for her new Afternoon soap?
00:17Find out here on Kapuso Insider.
00:20According to Kate, her role in The Shining Inheritance is unique
00:31because her character, Inna Villarazon, is a fighter.
00:34So for this show, I play the role of Inna.
00:38The roles I've played before, she's really a villain.
00:41Of course, Inna is not a villain.
00:43Before this show, which is the first season,
00:45my character as Hope is really fierce.
00:49But for Inna, as a lead, she's not a villain.
00:53She's a fighter.
00:54So that's the difference.
00:56All the roles I've played have challenges.
01:00But for this one, it's different
01:02because my character has a huge responsibility as an older sister.
01:08And then eventually, I'll be a parent to my younger brother
01:12who also has special needs.
01:14So that's the difference compared to the other characters I've played.
01:18Kate is happy with her taping experience in The Shining Inheritance
01:22because her co-stars are easy-going on set.
01:25I'm very much happy with this show.
01:28Although it sounds cliché, my co-stars are really nice.
01:33And I feel so blessed that they're the ones I've worked with on this project.
01:40Because it's really fun to work when the set is easy-going,
01:44when it's just fun and easy.
01:47You don't feel the weight of the scene.
01:50For me, that's what works for me the most
01:53because I feel relaxed.
01:55And I'm able to deliver when I'm relaxed and I'm happy on set.
01:58Kate's preparation for her role was also smooth.
02:01In fact, she even learned how to cook.
02:04I learned simple dishes,
02:06on how to serve,
02:08or even simple things like how to use a spoon or a knife.
02:11Because Inna really knows how to cook and she loves to cook.
02:15So I have to show that to the viewers.
02:18And also, she has a younger brother who has special needs.
02:23So we undergo workshops.
02:25Because it's my first time working with Seth and I'm really excited.
02:29So his role here is very challenging.
02:32So we need to work on that because he has autism.
02:36So we undergo meetings with psychiatrists
02:41so that we know and we can also be guided on how to approach,
02:47what the limit is,
02:49and how to interact with each other.
02:52According to Kate, viewers will be able to see the Filipino values in the Philippine version of Shining Inheritance.
02:58Although in our version,
03:01the highlights are still included from the original one.
03:04But more on, you can see the values of Filipinos here.
03:08One of the lessons that can be learned from Shining Inheritance
03:11is the right to choose your family.
03:16The lesson for me,
03:18that viewers will learn here is that,
03:21we can't deny our family,
03:26no matter how much we dislike them.
03:29It's not our choice.
03:31But that's what God gave us.
03:33But we have the right to choose
03:36who we can be family with.
03:40Whether it's a friend, acquaintance, or a lover,
03:45or even a stranger.
03:46As long as you have the same values and morals,
03:51that's what's important.
03:52And you both respect each other.
03:55Watch out for Kate Valdez in Shining Inheritance this September on JMA Afternoon Prime.
