00:00And then suddenly you're going to get out of here, so you can hold your hands.
00:07Okay, interesting.
00:09Okay, Mimi.
00:10What? I don't know what to say.
00:14What?
00:17Great.
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.
00:42It doesn't ask me anything.
00:44What?
00:45I really live by...
00:48What?
00:49The truth sets you free.
00:50And that's why 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.
01:00Mm-hmm.
01:02I don't think so.
01:03I don't think so.
01:04I don't think so.
01:05I think I don't have a secret.
01:06It's more of just, deserve ba malaman ng taong to.
01:10Yeah.
01:10Yung totoo.
01:11Or like kung anumang truth yung kailangan niya from me.
01:14Yeah.
01:15Mas yun lang.
01:16Kung sino lang mas deserve makita tong version na to of me or whatever.
01:20Pero I don't really keep secrets.
01:23So you don't mind if like the person you told to like tells other people?
01:28So, kapag may sasabihin ako, once sinabi ko na siya sa ibang tao, alam ko na na...
01:34Malalaman na.
01:36Malalaman na mga tao.
01:36Malalaman na mga tao.
01:37Yeah.
01:37Or like I make sure na what I say, kaya kong back upan.
01:41Okay.
01:42Or kaya kong...
01:43Kaya sabihin sa akin sa harapan.
01:45Yeah, you said that.
01:46You want to talk about it.
01:48Parang ganun.
01:49Yeah.
01:49I think it's the same.
01:51Lalo na kapag nasang showbiz ka, like medyo sure na ako na eh.
01:54Yung sinabi ko sa iyo.
01:55Lalo bas rin.
01:56Lalo bas rin yan.
01:57Kaya nga, sure ako eh.
01:58Sana ginamit yung tama daw.
02:00Ako nga.
02:01Minsan na iiba kasi.
02:02Sana tama yung grammar niya.
02:03Minsan na iiba pa eh.
02:04Yan lang yung problem.
02:06Biniladag-dag 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, just don't trust anybody.
02:17You know, yun 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.
02:29For you then.
02:30My character.
02:31Your characters, no?
02:32Yeah.
02:33Kasi hindi talaga kayo.
02:35Ikaw din, Arike.
02:36You rarely keep secrets?
02:38Um, yeah.
02:40Or like, you just don't hide anything?
02:43Hindi naman.
02:43I don't.
02:44Usually, nasasabi mo.
02:46Especially to the people like, I'm close to.
02:48Yeah, nasasabi ko.
02:49Mm-mm.
02:50Yeah.
02:51Okay.
02:51I think, yeah.
02:53Yeah.
02:53Minsan, dapat.
02:55Parang, there's at times that you just kept your mouth shut.
02:57But like, you know.
02:58May mag ganin ba kayo?
03:00Parang, after niyong maglabas, parang halasan.
03:03Kasi, 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
03:13So, another person's not listening.
03:15Then, nang napapaasana palin.
03:16Hindi mo na sanabi.
03:17Hindi mo na sanabi.
03:18But, it's not coming from,
03:21Na, I regret saying it.
03:22Because it might damage me.
03:24But, more of, I feel like he's not listening.
03:26Sana palin din ang nakapagkwentuhan.
03:28More of that.
03:30Na parang, I feel like yun ano may panang, ah, napo overshare ako.
03:33And I feel like this person's not even listening.
03:35So, I kind of feel a little ashamed.
03:38I'm like, ah, sana iba lang din nal daw ko rin.
03:41Ganun yun.
03:41Mas nangagaling niya.
03:42Fair.
03:43Mas embarrassment for me.
03:44Kaysa sa,
03:45Fair.
03:45I regret saying that that might damage my career.
03:48Parang, parang, parang, parang, parang, parang.
03:50Very valid.
03:51Kasi, kaya ako talagang back up.
03:52Nandali, ano yung sinabi ko?
03:55Anyway.
03:56See?
03:57Ayan.
03:57Madal-dal kasi ka na parahasin.
04:00Yan, dumadal-dal na ako ulit.
04:02Okay.
04:03Okay lang yan.
04:03Well, how similar or different are you to your characters?
04:08Well, wala po akong generational wealth.
04:12Yun ang biggest difference.
04:14Biggest difference namin ni Kiyara.
04:17The generational wealth.
04:20Yan pa lang dami na namin pinakaiba.
04:23Wala din mga problema niya.
04:26Thankfully, luckily, yun yung yung yaman namin.
04:30Pero, character-wise and personality-wise,
04:36Paras kaming matapang eh.
04:38Paras kaming matapang.
04:39Paras kaming matapang sa pag-ibig.
04:42Ayan.
04:42As in, paras kaming fighter sa love.
04:44Paras kaming lover.
04:46Lover girl.
04:47Okay.
04:48How about you?
04:48Sa akin.
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.
04:56I'm Mr. Positive.
04:58I don't want to feel depressed.
04:59I don't want to feel sad.
05:00I don't want to feel sad.
05:00So, I try to make myself happy.
05:01Or make other people happy.
05:03Parang sumaya ko.
05:04Alam mo yun?
05:05Ako yung,
05:06Hindi tara, 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-secret sa malo sa buhay.
05:16Okay.
05:16Ah, yeah.
05:17That's one thing.
05:18Parang,
05:19Siyempre sa unang sa lahat.
05:21Kahit hindi ni maintidin,
05:22Siyempre sa unang pupunta sa sabihin ko.
05:24Yung secreto.
05:25Amin yun.
05:25True.
05:26Okay.
05:26But apart from that.
05:27But of course,
05:28Siyempre,
05:28Maybe sa story,
05:30You know,
05:30Maraming layers,
05:31factors.
05:33It's just for the story.
05:35It's just for the story.
05:38So,
05:39I think that's just the biggest thing.
05:40Like,
05:41Kahit ganang man kahirap.
05:43Well,
05:43Eventually,
05:44Aami naman eh.
05:45Okay.
05:46Aspects,
05:46I think better,
05:48Si Kiara,
05:48Isa sakin.
05:49Like,
05:50I think mas sweet siya eh.
05:52You think ka mas sweet?
05:53I don't think it's sweet.
05:56I don't know.
05:59I don't know.
06:00Sweet naman ako.
06:01Sweet ako super sweet ko.
06:03Basta,
06:04May mga times na mas mabait pa si Kiara.
06:06Oh, okay.
06:07Pero may times din na,
06:09Hindi siya kasi mabait.
06:11So,
06:11Mas lamang ako eh.
06:12Kiara dun.
06:13Atis hindi ako,
06:14I don't know what to do, okay?
06:17I don't know what to do.
06:18Well, after doing this project,
06:21did it change how you'd look at secrets and relationships in real life?
06:24No.
06:26No.
06:28Very...
06:28I've already been in my opinion about secrets in relationships.
06:34So, it's a big no, really, in relationships.
06:37That's why we were talking about a series.
06:41No.
06:41That's why there's a lot of problems in Prague because of the secrets.
06:45That's why your perspective is different.
06:48It's still more support because of this show.
06:53How about for you?
06:55That's hard.
06:57Do you think men better left unsaid than other things?
07:01Depending.
07:03Depending.
07:04There are some situations, sometimes, it does work.
07:07I just want to tell you.
07:08If you are Mikoy and your true love story, Kiara and Mikoy, like that whole thing,
07:16do you want to tell the truth to him?
07:22Yes?
07:24Yeah.
07:25You want to tell me the truth?
07:25Yeah.
07:26Wow.
07:27Okay.
07:28You.
07:29Ask me, ask me, ask me, ask me.
07:31No.
07:31But, what do you know?
07:34If...
07:37If...
07:38It's hard to say that you don't have a spoiler.
07:40Yeah, that's true.
07:40You know, let's go back to that show.
07:42If you don't have a story, you don't have a story.
07:45That's true.
07:46Let's go back to that show.
07:48Let's go back to that show to our ending.
07:49The ending.
07:50The ending.
07:51The ending.
07:51Yeah.
07:51We can talk more about it.
07:53Yeah.
07:53I'm sure we're going to do it again for the ending of our promo ending.
07:57Yeah.
07:58But, from what the Pepsters have witnessed just now, it's like intriguing.
08:02Like, you've questioned Andrea for you as Mikoy.
08:06So, we will definitely watch out for that.
08:09Um, now let's talk about your career.
08:12Um, I think you touched on this earlier, a little bit earlier.
08:16You mentioned love themes.
08:18Um, at this point, do you still feel the need to be tied to a screen partner?
08:24Me, no.
08:26It's been a long time.
08:27I don't know if my choice is not.
08:31Because my choice is not.
08:33Because my feeling is not necessary.
08:36But, um, sometimes I think, for the longest time, that's my dream.
08:42It's like a love theme.
08:44Because it's what works, especially here in the Philippines.
08:48Like, if you really want to be mainstream, or if you really want to be so cool, or become phenomenal.
08:54It's like, you really need to do that.
08:56And then, I realized, I think it's not for me.
09:01Um, but I'm happy.
09:04I also think I'm happy.
09:05I hope that your achievements are good.
09:08You're good, you're good.
09:10You're good.
09:11Especially if, for example, your relationship is good.
09:13It's really good.
09:14But I'm happy that all of my achievements, that I did it all by myself.
09:20Yeah.
09:21Iba-iba din naman yung, parang, feeling nun.
09:25Fulfillment.
09:25Yung fulfillment nun.
09:27Pero iba ka ibang magka ibang siya.
09:28Hindi ko pinag-compare sinasabi, this one's better, this one's better.
09:31I just feel like, this is my path.
09:34And I'm happy naman sa path ko.
09:39There you go.
09:40There you go.
09:41Both contributed to who she is now.
09:43How about for you?
09:44For me right now?
09:45Yes.
09:46No.
09:46At the stage of my career right now?
09:49I don't think so.
09:51I've done that.
09:53At this point, with the projects I want to do and moving forward, that's not really my radar.
10:00Yeah.
10:01And yeah, I think you have to evolve as an artist.
10:07So, you can't just stay the same.
10:09So, kung ibang love teaman yan, maybe, possibly, but not really needed.
10:14Anyway.
10:16Ano sa tingyo niya yung mga pros and cons sa love team?
10:21Um, well, pros and cons.
10:26Well, pros is, you know, you know each other so well na it's so easy to…
10:31Ako, basta masaya lang ako yung tfro kasi sa akin lahat sa iyo.
10:34Yan yung pros.
10:36So, yung tf lahat sa iyo lang?
10:38Yan.
10:38Yan.
10:39Saniling tf kami yung mga tao.
10:41I mean, walang malaking cut kasi nasa labi.
10:44May cut pa gano'n?
10:46Yan yung na-experience ko eh.
10:47Ha?
10:48May na-experience akong gano'n.
10:50Like, parang if ko punin together, parang like…
10:54Basta…
10:54Basta lumaki lang yung…
10:55Package deal?
10:56Basta lumaki lang yung cut.
10:58Oh, talaga?
10:58Mas kuman…
10:59Parang gano'n.
11:00Yan yung na-experience ko.
11:00Hindi ko dahil sabi lahat yun.
11:02Oh, okay, okay.
11:03That was mine.
11:04I don't know.
11:04Sa iyo.
11:05Anyway.
11:08Parang hindi yung na-experience.
11:09So, happy for you.
11:11Sige, sige, sorry.
11:12Nakat kita, go.
11:13Hindi, gano'n.
11:14Pros and cons.
11:14Sige lang.
11:15Ano bang pros and cons?
11:20Um…
11:20Pros ko…
11:25Mas may freedom lang talaga.
11:27Like, no offense.
11:28Mas may freedom lang sa pag-gawa ng projects.
11:31Sa pagtanggap or pagpilit ng mga projects mo gusto gawin.
11:34That's true.
11:35Like, hindi siya…
11:36Mas…
11:37Mas versatile lang din yung mga roles na no offer.
11:40Yun lang po.
11:41Sige, yung fans kasi yung iniingatan.
11:43Yung fans.
11:44Yung fandom.
11:45Which, you know…
11:46Yeah.
11:46So, maraming…
11:49Um…
11:49Levels to it.
11:51Uh…
11:51Yeah.
11:51Some pros naman to it.
11:53Masasabi ko is…
11:54You know, when you get to work with somebody for so long.
11:56Sige, you know each other for…
11:58You know, so well.
11:59So, ang dali niya kung medyo mabibigat yung eksena.
12:01Yeah.
12:02Isang tingin…
12:02Oh, totoo yan.
12:03Isang salita mo lang, alam na kung paano…
12:06Yeah.
12:06You know how to carry each other.
12:07You know how to, you know…
12:09Pag hindi niya nararamdaman, isang tingin pa lang…
12:12Yeah.
12:13You know, ma…
12:14Parang, iba yung level…
12:15Make sense.
12:16Yung level ng pagtulungan ninyo…
12:18Yeah.
12:18It's a deeper level na…
12:20Only that person can really bring out on you, of you.
12:25So…
12:25I think yung masaya lang na…
12:28Parang pros dun is…
12:29Lalo na kung kapartner mo yung…
12:31Kapartner mo talaga in real life, yung ka-love team mo.
12:34Parang, hindi na siya work.
12:36Parang everyday ka may date.
12:38Yeah.
12:39Para siyang ganun.
12:40Pero kasama dun yung cons,
12:43na kung kapartner mo talaga yung love team mo,
12:45pang magkainisan kayo,
12:47tapos kailangan,
12:47ay, shoot, shoot.
12:49Pesa.
12:49Yeah.
12:50Pero pagkaka…
12:51Oh, yan talaga.
12:55Pag-sweep yung scene,
12:56tapos nag-aaway kayo.
12:58Super.
12:59Super.
12:59Tapos medyo halata.
13:00Guys, kailangan sweet yung scene ha.
13:02Tapos kailangan na kayong tawagin sa set.
13:05At…
13:06Mama…
13:07Hindi kasi…
13:08Kasi hindi ka pinapansin.
13:10So nung yun,
13:12na-experience niya yung dalawa.
13:13Parang na-experience niya yung dalawa.
13:15Kaya…
13:16Tapos hindi kayo magka…
13:17Tapos biglang lalabas na kayo,
13:19so…
13:20Mag-hold the hands kayo.
13:24Okay…
13:25Interesting.
13:26Hindi na, Mimi.
13:27Ano?
13:28Wala akong sinasabi.
13:30Wala akong sinasabi.
13:34Wala akong sinasabi.
13:35Grabe mo.
13:36Sorry.
13:36Ayun.
13:38Well…
13:39About…
13:39About the fans.
13:40Memories bring back.
13:41Memories bring back you.
13:43Ina-assar ka talaga.
13:45Ano ang tawag dito?
13:46So…
13:47Fans can get really obsessive over love themes.
13:50Super, super.
13:50Do you think that's more of a pro or a con?
13:53Which is…
13:53Where is it leaning more?
13:55Pantay lang siya, I think.
13:57In the middle.
13:58Yeah.
13:59Meron siyang sarili niya talagang benefits.
14:02At meron din talagang…
14:04No.
14:05I think…
14:06For me…
14:07Kasi…
14:08Yung pag…
14:09Syampe yung cons na yung pag-control na masyado na parang…
14:13May buhay ako, tao ako.
14:14Yung part na yun na alam na natin lahat.
14:16Pero yung mga pros is…
14:18Talagang andiyan sila for you.
14:20Yeah.
14:20No matter what.
14:22Talagang pagtatanggol ka nila.
14:24Through sick and sin.
14:25And…
14:26Solid yun eh.
14:27Magkaroon ng ganun na fan.
14:29Na tao sa buhay mo.
14:32I think…
14:35Sobrang…
14:36Ayaw ko.
14:37Dama ka yun ba?
14:38Dama ka yun ba?
14:43Dama ka.
14:44Nagkaroon ako ng superobsessive na…
14:47Fan…
14:48Fandom na…
14:49Love Team ganun…
14:50Dama ka.
14:51I think…
14:51Hindi ako umabot doon kasi…
14:56Hindi din kasi medyo umabot sa peak yung love team ko.
14:59Sa pagkakailala ko.
15:01At least sa stand.
15:02Sa, parang pwait ko ko sa standards…
15:04Of course, the LISCAN, I didn't even go there because I stopped for a long time in my love team.
15:1417, 18, I stopped for my love team.
15:18And a few projects.
15:20A few projects, a few projects, I think, before I reached that point.
15:25So I can't say.
15:27I've had a different experience with you.
15:29With you.
15:31I'm just nodding.
15:33And I was like, okay.
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?
15:47Is it a 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.
16:03They're more open to everyone.
16:05They're more collaborative to everyone.
16:07That's true.
16:08Yeah.
16:09So everything's really changing.
16:10Everything's actually really evolving na talaga.
16:14Which is good.
16:14For the better.
16:14Sometimes the magic that I want to go back to, because I can see that you're more open to what
16:21we see before.
16:22Which is really good.
16:23It's not a bad thing.
16:25So yeah, I mean, I think it's about time that we evolved from what typical projects we see coming out.
16:34So most edgier na yung man nakita mo.
16:36Edgier.
16:36Yeah, super edgier.
16:37That's true.
16:38That's true.
16:38Good you mentioned collaborative.
16:40Kasi nag-start kayo, nagrabe pa yung network wars.
16:43Yeah.
16:44How about for you, paano nag-change yung perspective mo as an actor with what's happening in showbiz now?
16:57Exciting, man.
17:00I think halos atang sinabi ni Ken.
17:03I think it's exciting, especially for people coming into the industry now.
17:07Hindi na may experience yung mga long hours of taping, yung walang tulugan.
17:10Tatangkad po sila.
17:11Mas matatangkad talaga yung channel.
17:14Yeah, so they have no idea what we had to go through.
17:18But you know, that's also good training for us.
17:21Pero oo, sa totoo lang, wala din naman yung masyadong gustong bagawin.
17:26Yeah.
17:26Pili ko naging tough cookie talaga ako sa...
17:29Totoo.
17:29Tapos yung start niyo...
17:30Sa mag-apagdaarap ko natin.
17:32Yung start niyo, auditions, di ba?
17:34Ngayon, di ba, pinipik sa TikTok.
17:36Yun nga, pila-pilahan pa nga ako sa LRTM.
17:39No way.
17:40Yes.
17:42Grabe, pila-pilahan.
17:44Yun yung medyo mag...
17:45Yung may drama pa na masasarahan kami ng namin ako.
17:49Tapos di kami mag-apot.
17:51Maa, maa.
17:52Tapos di ko, close on.
17:54No, maa.
17:55Masyadis ka ko maa.
17:57How do you feel about how they're picking talents now?
18:04No comment?
18:07No comment?
18:08Okay, no comment yun.
18:10Sige.
18:10Last time a season ago, binashaw ko yun.
18:12Oh sige, wag.
18:13Wag na natin.
18:15How about you and you?
18:17Um, I don't know.
18:18I mean, I believe everybody has a chance.
18:22As long as may, you know, may they can bring something to the table.
18:26Yeah.
18:26Don't really judge anybody.
18:28Yun lang.
18:29I mean, as long as you can bring something to the table, you have your own personality.
18:33You bring your own flavor.
18:35Yun lang.
18:37At the end of the day, mas naniniwala ako sa if it's meant for you.
18:41It's meant for you.
18:42It's meant for you.
18:42So, wala naman difference if nagpila ako, nagcommit ako, or kaya nag-send lang ako.
18:49Kasi yung tamang project, hahanapin ka talaga akong para sa yun, para sa yun.
18:52That's true.
18:53And if you really have the passion for acting, lalabas yun at magsistay ka talaga sa industry.
18:58Yun lang ginagawa nalang sa Hollywood, diba?
19:00Nagsisending din sila ng tapes.
19:02Yeah.
19:02I think, you know, you just follow what you want and everything will always fall in the right place.
19:08I think lumalabas din kasi yan or it translates on screen.
19:12When someone just wants to be an actor or actress because they want to be famous.
19:16Yeah.
19:16As opposed to…
19:18Well, there's some naman who just really love acting talaga.
19:20Yeah.
19:20I think that's the difference of being an actor, actress, artista.
19:25Yeah.
19:26Iba yung may…
19:28So, diba may mga…
19:29May slang talaga kami.
19:31Meron kaming linggo na actor, actress.
19:34Iba yung artista kasi siya artista ng artista.
19:37Pero ito actor.
19:38Isang actress.
19:39Parang ganun po.
19:40Interesting.
19:42For me, iba kasi yun eh.
19:43Mm-mm.
19:44Okay.
19:45Now, talking about your production company, are you still working in a corporate role alongside acting?
19:52Well, we usually do just Zoom meetings almost every other day.
19:57Okay.
19:58That's it.
19:59Touch base until we have our office.
20:01Well, we have an office in Makati.
20:02Pero we want to open our own like just for TV and movies.
20:07Building.
20:08Building.
20:09Building.
20:09But for now, Zoom.
20:11Zoom meeting.
20:12Yeah, yeah.
20:14Feeling shock building.
20:15You'll put it in Waze.
20:17How about for you, Andrea?
20:19How is your business doing?
20:21Are you…
20:22Especially now, if you have a project,
20:24Paano nakahati yung oras mo sa pag-ahandle ng business mo?
20:28Meron po ako actually duplicate.
20:31Meron akong kagibanshinwejutsu.
20:35Meron pal.
20:36Ashton pala sa office habang nasa taping po ako.
20:40Um, well, very supportive din kasi yung team ko sa Lucky Beauty.
20:46And from the start, alam na nila na hindi ako talaga makakapag 100% sa kanila.
20:52Pero sa lahat ng importanteng decision-making, hands-on ako and present po ako.
20:58Yeah.
20:59Sa lahat ng campaigns, sa lahat pa rin nang nare-release ng bawat product ng Lucky Beauty galing pa rin
21:06sa akin po yun.
21:08Okay.
21:09Well, that's good to know.
21:10Aside from acting, you guys have been busy on your business and flourishing in it too.
21:16After everything you've been through,
21:18medyo related din to sa show,
