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.
01:13so, I don't think so.
01:14I don't think so.
01:15I don't think so.
01:17I don't think so.
01:18I know.
01:19But, I don't really keep secrets.
01:23So, you don't mind if the person you told to tell other people?
01:28Yeah, okay.
01:29When I'm saying, once I have to say to other people, I know that...
01:34You'll know.
01:35You'll know.
01:36You'll know.
01:37I make sure that what I say, I can back up.
01:41Okay.
01:42Or I can say to myself,
01:45you said that, you want to talk about it.
01:48It's like that.
01:49Yeah, I think it's the same.
01:51Even if you're in the showbiz,
01:52I'm sure I'm sure that
01:54that's what I told you.
01:55Especially that.
01:56That's why I'm sure.
01:58Why do you use it right?
02:00Yes.
02:01Sometimes it's different.
02:01Sometimes it's different, right?
02:05That's the problem.
02:05It's not even better.
02:07There are people who don't know.
02:09That's all, even in my private life.
02:12I think you just have to really be careful.
02:14Just don't trust anybody.
02:17That's all.
02:18Just be very wary.
02:21Safe to say, I know the answer to the next question.
02:23I'll ask you, who is more secretive?
02:25You or your character?
02:27My character.
02:29For you then.
02:30Your character.
02:31Your characters, right?
02:32Yeah.
02:33Because you really don't know.
02:35You too, Ariki.
02:36Do you rarely keep secrets?
02:39Yeah.
02:40Or like, you just don't hide anything?
02:43I don't.
02:44Usually, especially to the people I'm close to.
02:48Yeah, I'm telling you.
02:49Yeah.
02:51Okay.
02:51I think, yeah.
02:53Yeah.
02:53Sometimes, there's times that you just kept your mouth shut.
02:57Yeah.
02:58But like, you know.
02:58Do you have something like that?
03:00Of course.
03:02Because sometimes you're naive or something.
03:04So, sometimes less talk is less book.
03:06Sorry.
03:06Less problems.
03:08I don't actually, I only feel that,
03:11when I feel that the person's not listening,
03:14then I'm scared.
03:15I hope you're not listening.
03:16You haven't said it.
03:17But it's not coming from,
03:21that I regret saying it,
03:22because it might damage me.
03:24But more of,
03:25I feel like he's not listening.
03:26I hope he's not listening.
03:28More of that.
03:29It's like,
03:30I feel like,
03:31you know what?
03:31It's like,
03:32I'm oversharing.
03:33And I feel like this person's not even listening.
03:35So,
03:35I kind of feel,
03:37a little ashamed.
03:38Like,
03:38I hope that I'm just talking about other people.
03:40That's the way.
03:42Fair.
03:42It's more embarrassment for me,
03:44than the,
03:45I regret saying that that might damage my career.
03:48Okay.
03:49Like that.
03:50Very balanced.
03:51Because I really can back up.
03:52And then,
03:53what did I say?
03:54Yeah.
03:56See?
03:56Ayan.
03:57Madal-dal,
03:57kasi kami parayas.
04:00Ayan.
04:00Dumadal-dal na ako.
04:02Okay.
04:03Okay lang yan.
04:04Well,
04:04how similar or different are you,
04:06to your characters?
04:08Well,
04:08wala po akong generational wealth.
04:12Y'yon yung biggest difference.
04:14Biggest difference namin ni Kiara.
04:17The generational wealth.
04:18Hindi ako kasi namin ni Kiara.
04:21Doon pala,
04:22dami na namin pinakaiba.
04:23Wala din na mga problema niya.
04:26Thankfully,
04:27luckily,

04:31Pero,
04:31character-wise
04:32and personality-wise,
04:36pares kaming matapang eh.
04:38Pares kaming matapang.
04:39Pares kaming matapang sa pag-ibig.
04:41Ayan.
04:42As in,

04:44Pares kaming lover.
04:46Lover girl.
04:47Okay,

04:48Sa akin,
04:50halos lahat kasi parang ako talaga eh.
04:52Pag may problema ko,
04:53I just try to make things lightly,
04:55look at the brighter side of things.
04:56I'm Mr. Positive.
04:58I don't want to feel depressed.
04:59I don't want to feel sad.
05:00So,
05:00I try to make myself happy
05:01or make other people happy
05:02parang mag sumaya ko.

05:07Tara, enjoy tayo.
05:08Kulitan tayo.
05:09You know?
05:10Um,

05:13hindi wata kaya mag-secretan sa
05:14mahal ko sa buhay.
05:16Ah, okay.
05:17That's one thing,
05:18one thing.
05:18Parang,
05:19siyempre sa unang sa lahat,
05:21hindi ni maintidin,
05:22siya 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,
05:29maybe sa story,
05:30you know,
05:30maraming layers and factors.
05:33wala lang story.
05:35Wala lang story.
05:35Wala lang story.
05:35Yun na nga.
05:36It's just for the story.
05:37It's just for the story.
05:38So,
05:39I think this is the biggest thing.
05:40Like,
05:41kahit ganang mang hahihirap.
05:43Well,
05:43eventually,
05:44ahamin naman eh.
05:45But.
05:46Aspects,
05:46I think better,
05:48si Kyara,
05:48isa sakin.
05:49I think,
05:50mas sweet siya eh.
05:52Hindi ka mas sweet?
05:54Hindi ka mas sweet?
05:54Hindi ka mas sweet?
05:58I don't know.
05:59So,
06:00sweet naman ako.
06:01So,
06:01ito ko,
06:01super sweet ko.
06:03Basta,
06:03may mga times na mas mabait pa si Kyara.
06:06Ah, okay.
06:07Pero may times din na,
06:09hindi siya kasi mabait.
06:11So,
06:11mas lamang ako eh, Kyara dun.
06:13At least,
06:13hindi ako,
06:14wala kang ganun eh.
06:16Arang ganun.
06:18Okay.
06:19Well,
06:19after doing this project,
06:21did it change how you'd look at secrets and relationships in real life?
06:24No.
06:26No.
06:27Very,

06:30Ano na ako sa opinion ko about secrets in relationship eh.

07:00Uh,

07:51Mas pwede natin pag-usapan siya eh.
07:53Yeah.
07:53I'm sure gagawin natin ulit pa mag-ending na yung mga promo-ending natin.
07:57Yeah.
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.
08:09Now, let's talk about your career.
08:12I think you touched on this earlier,
08:15a little bit earlier,
08:16you mentioned love themes.
08:18At this point,
08:19do 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,
08:29kasi,
08:30kasi,
08:31kasi,
08:33kasi,
08:33kasi,
08:34kasi,
08:38kasi,
08:40kasi,
08:42kasi,
08:42kasi,
08:43kasi,
08:44kasi,
08:44kasi,
08:44kasi,
08:44kasi,
08:44kasi,
08:45kasi,
08:45kasi,
08:46kasi,
08:46Especially here in the Philippines, if you really want to be mainstream, or if you want to be really cool,
08:52or be phenomenal,
08:54you really need to do that.
08:57And then, I realized that I think it's not for me.
09:02But I also think that I'm happy with your achievements.
09:07You have cash, you have your partner.
09:10Especially if, for example, your relationship is good.
09:13It's really fun.
09:14But I'm happy with all of my achievements.
09:18I did it all by myself.
09:21It's different from the feeling.
09:26Fulfillment.
09:27But it's different from different.
09:28I don't compare.
09:31I just feel like, this is my path.
09:34And I'm happy with my path.
09:39Here we go.
09:40Thanks.
09:41Both contributed to who she is now.
09:43How about for you?
09:44For me right now?
09:45No.
09:46At the stage of my career right now?
09:49I don't think so.
09:51I've already done that.
09:53At this point, with the projects I want to do, and moving forward, that's not really my radar.
10:00Yeah.
10:01Yeah.
10:01And, yeah.
10:02I think, you know, you have to evolve.
10:04You know?
10:04As an artist.
10:07So, you can't just stay the same.
10:09So, if it's a love team, maybe, possibly, but not really needed.
10:14Mm-mm.
10:15Mm-mm.
10:16Ano sa tingin niya yung mga pros and cons?
10:19Nang, sa love team?
10:21Um, well, pros and cons.
10:26Well, pros is, well, you know, you know each other so well na it's so easy to...
10:30I just don't know the TF for me because it's all for you.
10:34Oh, yeah.
10:35Yeah.
10:36TF for me?
10:37Yeah.
10:38So, you know, the TF for me is the same.
10:41I mean, no big cut because it's so easy.
10:44I mean, that's a big cut.
10:45I mean, that's a big cut.
10:46That's a big cut.
10:47That's a big cut.
10:48Half-up?
10:48That's a big experience.
10:50Like, if I put together, like, like, just...
10:54Package deal.
10:55Just a cut.
10:57That's a big cut.
10:57Oh, really?
10:58That's a big one.
10:59I mean, it's more like that.
10:59That's my experience.
11:00I can tell everyone.
11:02Ah, okay.
11:02That was mine.
11:03I don't know, for you.
11:05I don't know.
11:06Anyway.
11:07Um, it's not like that.
11:09So, happy for you.
11:11Ah, okay, sorry.
11:12I got cut, go.
11:13No, go along.
11:14Pros and cons.
11:14Okay.
11:15Ah, what's the pros and cons?
11:20Um...
11:21Pros...
11:25It's more...
11:26It's more freedom.
11:27No offense.
11:28It's more freedom than making projects.
11:31It's more freedom than making projects.
11:33It's more freedom than making projects.
11:34That's true.
11:35Like, it's not...
11:36It's more...
11:36It's more versatile than roles that offer.
11:40That's all.
11:41That's it.
11:42The fans are also reminded.
11:43The fans.
11:44The fandom.
11:45Which, you know.
11:46Yeah.
11:46So, there are a lot of levels to it.
11:51Yeah.
11:51Some pros to it.
11:52What I would say is, you know, when you get to work with somebody for so long, you know each
11:57other for, you know, so well.
12:00Yeah.
12:02You know how to carry each other.
12:07Yeah.
12:07You know how to, you know.
12:12You know how to carry each other.
12:25You know how to, you know.
12:29Yeah.
12:37Yeah.
12:48Yeah.
12:50Yeah.
12:51Yeah.
12:52Yeah.
12:52So, that's a...
12:53Lawrence.
12:53You know how to do it.
12:54I don't need to apologize it.
12:58Because this is part of the stage.
12:58And this is your note.
13:00It is the one too preceding the stage.
13:02You need to take a number of stages and snapsавно.
13:05You need to take the stage for the stage.
13:05Thomp on the stage.
13:08I don't have to identify the stage anymore.
13:09Oh yeah, I do not attack that.
13:13I was able to keep those two comets in.
13:13There are two experiences these two.
13:16So, didn't you go to the stage.
13:19Oh yeah.
13:20Do you have any fans?
13:23Okay, interesting.
13:27What? I don't know what to say.
13:34You're a lot.
13:36Well, about the fans.
13:40Memories bring back. Memories bring back you.
13:43You really want to know.
13:45What do you mean?
13:46Fans can get really obsessive over love teams.
13:50Super, super.
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, I think.
13:57In the middle.
13:58Yeah.
13:58He really has benefits.
14:01And he really has...
14:04No.
14:05I think, for me...
14:07Because...
14:08Of course, the constant control is too much.
14:11That I have a life, a person.
14:14The part of that, we know that we all know.
14:16But the pros is...
14:18They're really for you.
14:20Yeah.
14:20No matter what.
14:22They're really going to be able to get you through sick and sin.
14:26And...
14:26That's solid.
14:27You'll be able to get those fans in your life.
14:32I think...
14:33That's really...
14:35I don't know.
14:37You're good.
14:38That's right.
14:38That's really good.
14:39That's awesome.
14:39That's awesome.
14:39Because I really don't have to be able to get into that point.
14:43I feel like...
14:44I feel like I've got an obsessive fandom of a love team.
14:50That's cool.
14:51That's cool.
14:51I don't have to be able to get into that.
14:52Because...
15:03Um...
15:03I didn't compare it to the standards. Of course, the LISCAN, I didn't do that because I stopped for a
15:11long time in my love team.
15:13In 17, 18, I stopped for a long time.
15:18And a few projects.
15:20A few projects, I think.
15:22Before I reached that point.
15:25Yeah.
15:25So I can't say.
15:27It's a different experience for you.
15:29For you.
15:31It's just a nod.
15:34Okay.
15:35Nothing to add.
15:36Nothing to add.
15:37Okay, okay.
15:38That's okay.
15:39So how do you see showbiz now?
15:42And how has your perspective as an actor evolved?
15:46Is it new in the showbiz industry?
15:50I think for the better.
15:52Definitely.
15:53Working hours.
15:55What do you call it?
15:56I think they're more open to different concepts.
16:02Yeah.
16:03That's true.
16:03The more open.
16:04Yeah.
16:05The more collaborative.
16:06The more collaborative.
16:07That's true.
16:08Yeah.
16:09So everything's really changing.
16:10Everything's actually really evolving.
16:13For the better.
16:14Which is good.
16:14For the magic that I want to go back.
16:16Because I can see it.
16:17It's like, you know what we see before.
16:22Which is really good.
16:22It's not a bad thing.
16:25Yeah.
16:25So yeah.
16:26I mean, I think it's about time then.
16:27That we evolve from.
16:29Yeah.
16:30You know.
16:31Good you mentioned.
16:32What typical projects we see coming out.
16:34That's true.
16:34So it's more edgier.
16:36Edgier.
16:36Yeah.
16:37Super edgier.
16:37That's true.
16:38Good you mentioned collaborative.
16:40Because when you started.
16:41The network wars.
16:43Yeah.
16:44And now you've experienced it.
16:47You've also experienced it.
16:48You've also been able to collaborate.
16:49You've also been able to collaborate.
16:50Yeah.
16:51How about for you.
16:52How about your perspective as an actor.
16:55With what's happening in showbiz now.
16:57Exciting man.
16:59I think that's what I've said.
17:02That's true.
17:03I think it's exciting.
17:04Especially for people coming into the industry now.
17:07They're not going to experience long hours of taping.
17:09They're not going to sleep.
17:10They're going to sleep.
17:11They're going to sleep.
17:13They're going to sleep.
17:13They're going to sleep.
17:14They're going to sleep.
17:14So they have no idea what we had to go through.
17:17Yeah.
17:18But you know.
17:19That's also good training.
17:20For us.
17:21But yes.
17:21To the truth.
17:22I don't really want to do that.
17:26Yeah.
17:26I feel like I'm a tough cookie.
17:28To the truth.
17:29And the start of your audition.
17:32The start of your audition.
17:34Right?
17:34Right now.
17:35I picked on TikTok.
17:36That's right.
17:37I picked on my LRTM.
17:40See?
17:41No way.
17:42Great.
17:43I picked on my LRTM.
17:44It's a bit of drama.
17:46It's a bit of a drama.
17:48We're not going to sleep.
17:49But we're not going to sleep.
17:50But we're not going to sleep.
17:52And then we're going to sleep.
17:54No.
17:55No.
17:56How do you feel about how they're picking talents now?
18:04No comment?
18:06No comment.
18:08Okay.
18:08No comment.
18:09Okay.
18:10Last time a season ago.
18:11I'm sure.
18:12Okay.
18:13Let's go.
18:14Let's go.
18:15How about you and you?
18:18I don't know.
18:18I mean.
18:19I believe everybody has a chance.
18:20You know.
18:21True.
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.
18:30As 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,
18:38I'm more aware of if it's meant for you.
18:41It's meant for you.
18:41It's meant for you.
18:43If you're picking up,
18:45you're going to commit,
18:46or you're going to send me.
18:48Because that's the right project.
18:50You really need to look for you.
18:52That's true.
18:53And if you really have the passion for acting,
18:55you're going to be able to stay in the industry.
18:58That's not what you do in Hollywood.
19:00They're sending tapes.
19:01Yeah.
19:02I think, you know,
19:03you just follow what you want,
19:06and everything will always fall in the right place for you.
19:08I think,
19:08it translates on screen
19:12when someone just wants to be an actor or actress
19:14because they want to be famous.
19:15Yeah.
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,
19:24an artist.
19:25Yeah.
19:26Other celebrities.
19:27There are some people who are actors, actress.
19:34Other people are artists.
19:35They're artists, but they're actors.
19:38They're actors.
19:38They're like that.
19:40Interesting.
19:42Yeah.
19:42For me, that's different.
19:43Yeah.
19:44Okay.
19:45Now, talking about your production company,
19:47are you still working in a corporate role alongside acting?
19:52Well,
