00:00The internet sensation and actress, Herlene Budol, will return to soap opera via GMA Afternoon Prime Series,
00:07which will be broadcasted on Marikit.
00:09She will also be featured in a drama with her fellow comedian and Tiktok Lock co-host, Pokwa.
00:15Find out more details about their new TV project here on Kapuso Insider.
00:20Herlene Budol will try her hand at acting and will be the first to appear in the 2023 Kapuso series, Magandang Dilag.
00:34In her new series, she will be a tour guide and a vlogger who will help her tribe, Dumaga Tremontado, grow.
00:42I'm trying to flex our place there, how beautiful it is in Rizal.
00:46Actually, I'm a Rizal person, but now I've discovered that there are so many beautiful places there.
00:54In fact, Rizal was taken by the majority of their scenes.
00:57That's why the cast and crew of Binibidang Marikit sa Ilog crossed the river to reach their taping location.
01:03They say that their journey was worth it because of the beauty of the views there.
01:08They were able to preserve their place there.
01:11When you hear the sound of the river, it's like you're in a forest.
01:18That's why it's nice that they take good care of it.
01:22We're so close to it that it's curious to discover that we will flex all the tourist spots in Binibidang Marikit.
01:32For the first time, Harleen and her TikToklock co-host, Pokwong, will be joining the series.
01:38She's the biological mom of Bida, a Mayumi.
01:42We're super excited because we're always together on TikToklock.
01:45And here, our bonding will be twice as strong.
01:51Oh, that's Pokwong Jr.
01:56I saw how naughty I was to him 10 years ago.
01:59The joining of the two comedians is definitely a riot.
02:03But they promise that they will be serious when it comes to the drama.
02:08We're the ones who will cry, right?
02:11We're the ones who will laugh.
02:13We're the ones who will make up.
02:15Because they want to experience what it's like to be in real life,
02:18Pokwong gave Harleen some love advice.
02:21Share it with them.
02:22And love yourself first, okay?
02:25Love your family first.
02:27And that love, love, love.
02:28You're still young. You still have a lot to learn.
02:31You need to be smart.
02:32Especially when it comes to the things you do.
02:35Ikit's love story will be complicated because of the two men.
02:39One of them is Drew, who will play the role of Tony Labusca.
02:42I've been wanting to work with Harleen for a long time now,
02:45so I can finally cross this off my bucket list.
02:48It's Tony's first time on Kapuso Channel,
02:51so he's thankful for the first role he got in GMA.
02:54It's a dream come true because all the work I do is always serious.
02:59I'm always about to die, or I'm already dead, or it's a heavy drama.
03:05And I'm super happy because I got to experience such meaningful roles.
03:11At the same time, I've always wanted to play characters that were more my age, you know?
03:17So yeah, that's why I'm really excited to play this role
03:19because it's something that I've been wanting to do for a long time.
03:22While waiting for the entry of the Thai-Irish model
03:25and Manhunt International 2024 Titleist, Kevin Dasong,
03:30who is also one of Harleen's love interests in Binibining, Marikit.
03:33I've been here many times since the year 2018.
03:37I met a lot of lovely people and the Filipinos,
03:40they're just so welcoming, so warm.
03:42I've been in so many places in the Philippines.
03:44Kevin will play the role of Mafi,
03:46the superhot Afam that Ikit will meet in Japan.
03:50So far, Kevin has enjoyed his acting career in the Philippines,
03:54so he's looking forward to making more on-screen projects in GMA.
03:58Hopefully I can learn Tagalog very quickly,
04:01so hopefully I can get more embedded in the TV series and the movies.
04:06And I heard that GMA produces great game shows,
04:09so I'd love to go on and do some game shows.
04:11Sparkle artists will also be watching Binibining, Marikit,
04:14which are Thea Tolentino, Ashley Rivera, Jeff Moses, and Migs Almendras.
04:20Also in the series' cast are Chris Villanueva, Almira Molak, and John Thayer.
