00:00Are you very young in the business?

00:06Yes.

00:06Napaka-bata mo. Nakita namin lahat yan.

00:09Ang iyong pag-usbong, pag-bloom into a young man.

00:16Paano ka binoo at binasag ng iyong maagang pagtatrabaho sa industriya?

00:23Binoo ako very early stage pa lang.

00:26I was mentally prepared for this job.

00:30Dahil nagsimula ako, three years old ako.

00:32I was doing all commercials.

00:34First movie ko, I was six years old.

00:35Pumasok ako sa That's Entertainment, I was four years old.

00:38Surrounded ako ng lahat ng mga adults.

00:41So I was briefed definitely na ito yung ginagawa ko.

00:45Trabaho na.

00:45It's not fun and games.

00:48But yun nga, I think yung pagkabasag sa akin is the reality struck

00:54when I was in my teens,

00:56when I have to kind of hide what I was doing in school

01:00para hindi lang ako malait

01:02or yung hindi ako bigyan ng special treatment,

01:06especially with the other kids in school.

01:07Itinatago mo ang iyong pag-aartista sa skwela

01:10para hindi ka mabuli.

01:11In New York, para hindi ako mabuli,

01:12para hindi ako...

01:14There's no judgment whatsoever.

01:16Were you successful?

01:18I was successful for ilang taon.

01:20Na hindi nila alam?

01:21Na hindi nila alam until one time,

01:23I sang the national anthem to one of the games in New York.

01:29And nagsitingin ng lahat like,

01:31you didn't tell me you sing,

01:33ganito-ganyan,

01:33pero I've already come out with two albums at that time.

01:37Dalawa na yun nalabas ko sa ibang bansa.

01:38I was back and forth na

01:39from Europe to America.

01:43Pero tinago ko for the longest time,

01:46not just because na

01:47I wasn't proud or I was manipulated.

01:51It was just,

01:52I don't want to be judged

01:54and I don't want to be bullied.

01:55Especially in New York.

01:56Yeah, I know.

01:56Especially in New York.

01:57Pero na-bullied ka?

01:58Yeah, of course I was bullied.

01:59I had my hamburgers spat on every day in school.

02:03I was in and out of fights here and there.

02:06Dahil I was the only Asian in my school.

02:08There was 90% black people

02:10and the rest of them was Puerto Rican, Dominicans.

02:12Ako lang yung Pinoy.

02:14Umabot sa physical?

02:15Oh yeah.

02:16Oh yeah.

02:18Okay.

02:18It was a rough, rough, rough, rough

02:21adolescence for me.

02:23You fought back?

02:24Of course I fought back.

02:25For the first two years, I didn't

02:27because I was scared.

02:27Uh-oh.

02:28But my dad told me,

02:29uh, if you, uh, stand if you're correct.

02:32You know what I mean?

02:32And, and, and fight for...

02:34So dad knew that you were being bullied.

02:36My dad knew.

02:36But my dad as well, you know,

02:38he was working.

02:40Nasa trabaho ang tatay ko most of the time.

02:41So he was there rarely.

02:43So when he was there,

02:44he was trying to guide me

02:45and, you know, teaching me how to be a man.

02:47I got to see.
