00:00What? And suddenly, you're going to get out of here, so you'll hold your hands.
00:07Okay, interesting.
00:09Okay, Mimi.
00:10What? I don't know what to say.
00:12I don't know what to say.
00:16What?
00:17What?
00:18That's great.
00:28And because this show talks about secrets, in your personal life, how do you know when something is best kept
00:37to yourself?
00:38I don't. I'm so open-book.
00:42As in, ask me anything.
00:45I really live by...
00:48The truth sets you free.
00:50And I feel like I'm so careful.
00:54I'm so shy because I'm so honest.
00:57Okay, okay.
00:59I don't have a secret.
01:02I don't think so.
01:04I don't think so.
01:05I don't think so.
01:06I don't think so.
01:06I don't think so.
01:13I don't think so.
01:14I don't think so.
01:15I don't think so.
01:16I don't think so.
01:20But I don't really keep secrets.
01:23So you don't mind if the person you told to, like, tells other people?
01:29When I'm going to say, once I'm going to tell him to other people, I know that...
01:34I don't think so.
01:35I don't think so.
01:37I don't think so.
01:37Or like, I make sure that what I say, I can back up.
01:41Okay.
01:42Or I can say to myself,
01:45I said that.
01:46You want to talk about it.
01:48Like that.
01:49Yeah.
01:49I think it's the same.
01:51Even though when you're in the showbiz, I'm sure I'm sure that...
01:54Yeah.
01:55Lalo-bastro.
01:56Lalo-bastro.
01:56Kaya nga, sure ako eh.
01:58Sana ginamit niyang tama, though.
02:00Aho nga.
02:01Minsan na-iiba kasi.
02:02Sana tama yung grama niya.
02:03Minsan na-iiba pa eh.
02:04Yan lang yung problem.
02:06Biniladagdag pa.
02:07May mga hindi sinama.
02:10Ganun ako, kahit sa private life ko.
02:12I think just, you just have to really be careful lang.
02:14You know?
02:14Just don't trust anybody.
02:17You know?
02:18Yun lang.
02:18Just be very wary lang.
02:20Oh.
02:21Well, safe to say, I know the answer to the next question.
02:23Tatanin ko sana.
02:24Who is more secretive?
02:25You or your character?
02:27My character.
02:28Your character.
02:29Yeah.
02:29For you then.
02:30My character.
02:31Your characters, no?
02:32Yeah.
02:33Kasi hindi talaga kayo.
02:35Ikaw din, Ariki.
02:36Do you rarely keep secrets?
02:39Yeah.
02:40Or like, you just don't hide anything?
02:43Hindi naman.
02:43I don't.
02:44Usually, nasasabi ko.
02:46Especially to the people like I'm close to.
02:48Yeah, nasasabi ko.
02:50Yeah.
02:51Okay.
02:51I think, yeah.
02:52Yeah.
02:53Minsan, dapat.
02:55Parang, there's times that you just kept your mouth shut.
02:57Uh-huh.
02:58But like, you know?
02:58May mga ganin ba kayo?
03:00Parang, after niyong maglabas, parang halas.
03:02Kasi, minsan naiba or something.
03:04So, sometimes less talk is less, sorry.
03:06Less, you know.
03:07Ako nararamdaman ko lang yan.
03:08Problems din eh.
03:09I don't actually, I only feel that kapag nararamdaman ko na the person's not listening,
03:14then noong napapa, ah, sana pala hindi nang nakapagkwentuhan.
03:16Hindi mo na nasabi ko.
03:18But it's not coming from, na I regret saying it because it might damage me, but more of,
03:25ay, I feel like he's not listening, sana pala hindi nang nakapagkwentuhan.
03:28More of that.
03:29Na parang, I feel, like yun na may panang, ah, napo overshare ako, and I feel like this
03:33person's not even listening, so, I kind of feel a little ashamed.
03:38Na parang, ah, sana iban lang din alodaw ko rin.
03:41Ganon yung, mas nanggagaling siya.
03:42Fair.
03:42Mas embarrassment for me, kaysa sa, I regret saying that that might damage my career.
03:48Parang, parang, parang wala naman akong ganon.
03:50Very valid.
03:51Kasi, kaya ko talagang back-upan yan.
03:52Dali, ano yung sinabi ko?
03:54Hmm.
03:55Anyway.
03:55See, ayan.
03:57Madal-dal, kasi kami parayasin.
04:00Yan, dumadal-dal na ako ulit.
04:02Okay.
04:03Okay lang yan.
04:04Well, how similar or different are you to your characters?
04:08Well, wala po akong generational wealth.
04:12Yung nang biggest difference.
04:14Biggest difference namin ni Kiara.
04:17The generational wealth.
04:21Doon palang dami na namin pinakaiba.
04:23Wala din na mga problema niya.
04:26Thankfully, luckily, yung yaman namin.
04:31Pero character-wise and personality-wise,
04:36Paras kaming matapang eh.
04:38Paras kaming matapang.
04:39Paras kaming matapang sa pag-ibig.
04:41Ayan.
04:42As in, paras kaming fighter sa love.
04:44Paras kaming lover.
04:46Lover girl.
04:47Okay, how about you?
04:50Halos lahat kasi parang ako talaga eh.
04:52Pag may problema ko, I just try to make things lightly.
04:55Look at the brighter side of things.
04:56Ako si Mr. Positive.
04:58Ayoko mafeel depressed.
04:59Ayoko mafeel sad.
05:00So, I was trying to make myself happy or make other people happy.
05:03Parang mag-sumaya ko.
05:04Alam mo yun?
05:05Ako yung,
05:05Hindi.
05:06Tara, let's go.
05:07Tara, enjoy tayo.
05:08Kulitan tayo.
05:09You know?
05:10Um, but I think one thing is,
05:13Hindi wata kaya mag-secretan sa mahal ko sa buhay.
05:16Ah, okay.
05:17That's one thing, one thing.
05:18Parang,
05:19Siyempre sa unang sa lahat.
05:21Kahit hindi ni ma-intidin,
05:22It's yung unang pupuntahan sa sabihin ko.
05:24Yung secreto.
05:25Alam yun.
05:25True.
05:26Okay.
05:26But apart from that.
05:27But of course,
05:28Siyempre,
05:28Baby sa story and
05:30You know,
05:30Maraming layers and factors.
05:32Wait, wait.
05:33Wala lang story.
05:35Wala lang story.
05:35Wala lang story.
05:36It's just for the story.
05:37It's just for the story.
05:38So,
05:39I think that's just the biggest thing.
05:40Like,
05:41Kahit ganong man kahirap.
05:43Well,
05:43Eventually,
05:44Aami naman eh.
05:45Okay.
05:45But...
05:46Aspects,
05:46I think better,
05:48Si Kiara kisa sakin.
05:49Like mas, mas,
05:50I think mas sweet siya eh.
05:52I don't call it.
05:52You think you're sweet?
05:53I don't know.
05:55I don't know.
05:58I don't know.
06:00I don't know.
06:00Sweet naman ako.
06:01Sweet ako.
06:01Super sweet ko.
06:03Basta,
06:03May mga times na mas mabait pa si Kiara.
06:06Ah, okay.
06:07Pero may times din na,
06:09Hindi siya kasi mabait.
06:11So,
06:11Mas lamang ako eh.
06:12Kiara doon.
06:13At least, hindi ako,
06:14Wala kang gano'no.
06:16Okay.
06:16Parang gano'n.
06:18Okay.
06:19Well, after doing this project,
06:21Did it change how you'd look at secrets and relationships in real life?
06:24No.
06:26No.
06:27No.
06:27Very.
06:27Direct.
06:29Uhm,
06:30Ano na ako sa opinion ko about secrets in relationship eh.
06:34So, ano talaga.
06:35It's a big no talaga dapat sa relationship.
06:37Kaya nagkakagulo.
06:39Kaya tayo nagkakagulo.
06:39Kaya tayo nagkakagulo.
06:41Kaya nagkaroon ng gulo-gulo sa,
06:43sa Prague.
06:44Dahil sa secret na yan.
06:45Kung bagay yung perspective mo sa,
06:47Hindi siya nabago.
06:48Ano talaga.
06:49Mas, mas nasupport pa dahil sa,
06:51Yes.
06:52Sa show na to.
06:53How about for you?
06:55That's hard.
06:56Um.
06:57Like, do you think men must better left unsaid ang ibang bagay?
07:01Uh.
07:01Depending.
07:02Sa teleserya natin na yan.
07:03Depending.
07:04There's some situations sometimes.
07:06It does work.
07:07Ang panungko na lang sa'yo.
07:08If.
07:09If.
07:09Ikaw nga si Mikoy.
07:12At.
07:13Si.
07:13Totoong love story mo si Kiara and Mikoy.
07:15Like yung buong yun.
07:17Sasabihin mo ba yung totoo sa kanya?
07:22Yes?
07:24Yeah.
07:24Sabihin mo yung totoo?
07:25Yeah.
07:26Wow.
07:27Uy.
07:28Ikaw.
07:29As Kiara.

07:32Ano mo.
07:33Opa.
07:34Kapag.
07:36Hindi kasi kung.
07:37Ano hirap sabihin nang hinula ka si spoiler.
07:40That's true.
07:40Ano mo.
07:41Balikan na lang natin yan.
07:42Kapag ano na.
07:43Kapag sinabi mo na wala na story.
07:45Kaya nga.
07:45Ano nga lang.
07:46Balikan natin yung tanong na to.
07:48Sa promo natin pa-ending.
07:50Pa-ending.
07:50Pa-ending.
07:51Mas pwede natin pag-usapan siya eh.
07:53Yeah.
07:53I'm sure gagawin natin ulit po mag-ending na yung mga promo-ending natin eh.
07:58Yeah.
07:58But from what the Pepsters have witnessed just now.
08:01Parang ang intriguing nun.
08:03Like yung question ni Andrea sa'yo as Mikoy.
08:06So.
08:07We will definitely watch out for that.
08:08Yeah.
08:09Now let's talk about your career.
08:12I think you touched on this earlier.
08:15A little bit earlier.
08:16You mentioned love teams.
08:18At this point, do you still feel the need to be tied to a screen partner?
08:24Ako po.
08:25No.
08:26Kasi.
08:27Kasi.
08:27Kasi.
08:27Kasi.
08:27Kasi.
08:28Kasi.
08:28Kasi.
08:28Kasi.
08:28Kasi.
08:29Kasi.
08:34Kasi.
08:37Kasi.
08:39Kasi.
08:40Kasi.
08:41Kasi.
08:41Kasi.
08:44Kasi.
08:48Kasi.
08:50Kasi.
08:51Kasi.
08:53Kasi.
08:54Kasi.
08:54Kasi.
08:55Kasi.
08:57and I realized that I think it's not for me.
09:02But I also think that I'm happy with your achievements,
09:09especially if your relationship is good,
09:13but I'm happy with all of my achievements.
09:18I did it all by myself.
09:20It's different from feeling.
09:25Fulfillment.
09:26Fulfillment.
09:27But it's different from others.
09:28I don't compare.
09:30I just feel like this is my path,
09:34and I'm happy with my path.
09:39Here we go.
09:41Both contributed to who she is.
09:43How about for you?
09:44For me right now, no.
09:46I'm at the stage of my career right now.
09:48I don't think so.
09:50I've done all of that.
09:52At this point,
09:55with the projects I want to do,
09:57and moving forward,
09:59that's not really my radar.
10:01Yeah.
10:02I think you have to evolve as an artist.
10:07So you can't just stay the same.
10:08So if it's another love team,
10:12maybe, possibly, but not really needed.
10:15What are the pros and cons of the love team?
10:23Well, pros and cons.
10:26Well, you know each other so well that it's so easy to...
10:31I just don't know the TF for me because it's all for you.
10:35The pros and cons.
10:36The TF for me?
10:37I don't know.
10:38Yeah.
10:39I don't know the TF for you.
10:41I mean, I don't have a big cut.
10:42Because it's a big cut.
10:44I mean,
10:45I don't know.
11:01I don't know the thing.
11:02Oh, okay.
11:02That was mine.
11:04I don't know.
11:04No, no, no, no.
11:07It's not like the experience,
11:09so happy for you.
11:11Ah!
11:12Okay, okay, sorry.
11:12I got cut it.
11:13No, go.
11:14Pros and cons?
11:14Okay.
11:15What's the pros and cons?
11:22My pros...
11:25There's a lot of freedom.
11:27No offense, there's a lot of freedom to do projects,
11:31to choose projects you want to do.
11:34That's true.
11:35It's not...
11:37It's more versatile than the roles that you offer.
11:40That's it.
11:40That's it.
11:41Of course, the fans are remembering.
11:43The fans.
11:44The fandom, which, you know...
11:46Yeah, so there are a lot of levels to it.
11:51Yeah.
11:51Some pros to it, what I'm going to say is,
11:54you know, when you get to work with somebody for so long,
11:56you know each other so well.
11:59So, it's easy if the scene is a little big,
12:01just one word,
12:04you know how to carry each other.
12:07You know how to, you know,
12:08if you don't feel it,
12:10just one thing.
12:11Yeah.
12:13You know, you can move it.
12:14It makes sense.
12:16It makes sense.
12:18It's a deeper level that only that person can really bring out on you,
12:24of you.
12:25So, it's a different level.
12:26It makes sense.
12:27The pros to it is,
12:29especially if you're a partner.
12:31If you're a partner in real life,
12:33you're a love team.
12:34It's like,
12:34it doesn't work.
12:36It's like every day,
12:37we have a date.
12:38Yeah.
12:38Oh.
12:39Yeah.
12:39Yeah.
12:40But,
12:41it's like the cons,
12:42that if you really fight it,
12:43you're a love team,
12:45if you have a few minutes,
12:46you just need to say,
12:47oh, shit, shit.
12:49I'm a bad person.
12:50But, when you're a cut.
12:51Yeah.
12:52That's right.
12:53That's why I'm a white man.
12:55When you sweep the scene,
12:56then you can't get away.
12:58Super.
12:59And, you're a bit lazy.
13:00Guys,
13:01you need to sweep the scene.
13:02But, when you need to call the set.
13:05then you can't get away.
13:07No, because you didn't realize it.
13:09Yes, I didn't realize it.
13:11So, that's how you experienced it.
13:13It's like the two experienced it.
13:15Because you didn't realize it,
13:17and suddenly you're out there,
13:19so you're holding hands.
13:24Okay, interesting.
13:26Yes, Mimi.
13:27What?
13:28I don't know what to say.
13:30I don't know what to say.
13:34You're so sorry.
13:35I don't know what to say.
13:36Well, about the fans.
13:40Memories bring back.
13:41Memories bring back you.
13:43You really did.
13:45What do you call it?
13:47Fans can get really obsessive over love teams.
13:50Do you think that's more of a pro or a con?
13:53Which is, where is it leaning more?
13:55He's just standing in the middle.
13:58He has benefits itself.
14:01And he has...
14:04No.
14:05I think, for me,
14:07because,
14:08of course,
14:09the constant control of me,
14:11that I have a life,
14:13a person,
14:14that we all know.
14:16But the pros is,
14:18they're really for you.
14:20No matter what.
14:22They're really going to get you through sick and thin.
14:25And,
14:26it's solid.
14:27It's like being a fan,
14:29a person in your life.
14:32I think,
14:34it's so...
14:35I don't know.
14:36I don't know.
14:50You're right.
14:51You're right.
14:54You're right.
14:56And I think,
14:57I'll just Catherine's point.
14:59Davidely
14:59can't,
15:02let me compare it to the standards.
15:04Of course,
15:05and Alex
15:05I think.
15:06Liz Kanra
15:07has none.
15:09I just stopped Lord's love team.
15:13서� deed
15:1418 years ago, I stopped on the love team.
15:18A few projects.
15:20A few projects, I think.
15:22Before I reached that point.
15:25So I can't say.
15:27I have a different experience with you.
15:29For you.
15:31It's just a nod.
15:34Okay.
15:35Nothing to add.
15:38That's okay.
15:39So how do you see showbiz now?
15:42And how has your perspective as an actor evolved?
15:46Is that new in the showbiz industry?
15:50I think for the better.
15:52Definitely. Working hours.
15:55What do you call it?
15:58I think they're more open to different concepts.
16:02Yeah, that's true.
16:05They're more collaborative.
16:06They're more collaborative.
16:07That's true.
16:08So everything's really changing.
16:10Everything's actually really evolving.
16:13For the better.
16:14Because sometimes I want to change the magic.
16:16Because I can see it.
16:18It's a little bit of what we see before.
16:22Which is really good. It's not a bad thing.
16:25So yeah.
16:26I think it's about time that we evolved from what typical projects we see coming out.
16:34That's true.
16:34So it's more edgier.
16:36Edgier.
16:36Yeah, super edgier.
16:37That's true.
16:38It's good you mentioned collaborative.
16:40Because when you started with network wars.
16:43Yeah.
16:43And now you've also experienced it.
16:47It's been a collaboration.
16:49It's been a collaboration.
16:50Yeah.
16:51How about for you?
16:52How did your perspective change as an actor?
16:55With what's happening in showbiz now?
16:57Exciting.
16:59I think it's about what's happening in the show.
17:02That's true.
17:03Yeah, I think it's exciting.
17:04Especially for people coming into the industry now.
17:07They're not ever experiencing long hours of taping.
17:10They're not getting tired.
17:11They're getting tired.
17:13They're getting tired.
17:13They're getting tired.
17:14So they have no idea what we had to go through.
17:17And, uh...
17:18But you know what?
17:19That's also good training.
17:20For us.
17:20But, yes.
17:21It's true.
17:22It's true.
17:22You know what I really want to do.
17:26Yeah.
17:26I feel like I'm becoming tough cookie.
17:28It's true.
17:29But the start of your auditions, right?
17:34Yes.
17:34You know, you picked up on TikTok.
17:36Yes.
17:37I picked up on the RTM.
17:40Yes.
17:41No way.
17:41Yes.
17:42Wow.
17:43I picked up.
17:44It's a bit of drama.
17:47We didn't want to lose our friends.
17:49We didn't want to lose our friends.
17:50We didn't want to lose our friends.
17:51Ma!
17:52And then we didn't want to lose our friends.
17:54No, ma!
17:55I didn't want to lose our friends.
17:57How do you feel about how they're picking talents now?
18:04No comment?
18:06No comment.
18:08No comment.
18:08Okay, no comment.
18:09Okay.
18:10Last time, I was in a show.
18:12Okay.
18:14Let me ask you.
18:15How about you and you?
18:17Okay.
18:18I don't know.
18:18I mean, I believe everybody has a chance.
18:20Fair true.
18:22As long as they can bring something to the table.
18:26Yeah.
18:26Don't really judge anybody.
18:28That's all.
18:29I mean, as long as you can bring something to the table.
18:31You have your own personality.
18:33You bring your own flavor.
18:35That's all.
18:36That's good.
18:37At the end of the day, I'm surprised if it's meant for you.
18:41It's meant for you.
18:41It's meant for you.
18:42Yeah.
18:42So, there's no difference if I pick up, commit, or send me.
18:48Yeah.
18:52That's true.
18:53That's true.
18:53And if you really have the passion for acting.
18:55That's true.
18:56That's true.
18:56That's true.
18:56That's true.
18:56That's true.
18:56That's true.
19:00That's true.
19:01That's true.
19:01Yeah.
19:02I think, you know, you just follow what you want and everything will always fall in the
19:07right place for you.
19:08I think, it translates on screen when someone just wants to be an actor or actress because
19:14they want to be famous.
19:15Yeah.
19:16Yeah.
19:16As opposed to…
19:17Yeah.
19:18Well, there's some who just really love acting.
19:20Yeah.
19:20I think that's the difference of being an actor, actress and an artista.
19:25Yeah.
19:26Other people…
19:27Other people…
19:28So, there are some…
19:29There are some…
19:30There are some…
19:31There are some people that are actors, actress.
19:34Other people are artists.
19:35Because, they are artists, but one actor, one actress, is that.
19:40Interesting.
19:42For me, that's different.
19:44Okay.
19:45Now, talking about your production company, are you still working in a corporate role alongside
19:50acting?
19:52Well, we usually do just Zoom meetings.
19:54almost every other day.
19:58That's just touch base
19:59until we have our office.
20:01Well, we have an office in Makati,
20:02but we want to open our own
