05:32.6
excited yung mga tao,
05:36.6
haka-haka online,
05:37.6
sinong mag Didirect
05:38.6
ng Filipino adaptation
05:40.0
ng It's Okay to Not Be Okay?
05:43.4
we are making it official.
05:46.8
the box office director,
05:48.0
fresh from the success
05:49.5
of the hit series,
05:50.5
Can't buy me love,
05:57.7
There she is, your director for the Filipino adaptation of It's Okay to Not Be Okay.
06:05.3
Direk May, welcome!
06:08.4
Hello, good evening everyone and to everyone who's here, thank you so much for making time to be with us tonight.
06:16.1
And yes, it's official.
06:17.4
Yes, it can be IG official now, Direk May.
06:22.9
Congratulations! At dahil ikaw ang nauna dyan, ikaw ang una kong tatanungin ayon kay Mico Del Rosario.
06:28.7
Agad-agad, Direk May, how does it feel?
06:31.7
Kakatapos pa lang ng Can't Buy Me Love, eto na agad, tatawid ka na sa next series.
06:37.9
Eto, catching my breath.
06:41.4
Literal tumakbo, tumalon.
06:43.9
But of course, this is a highly anticipated project.
06:49.1
And I am very grateful that I was given this.
06:52.5
This opportunity to do this very beautiful K-drama adaptation.
06:59.2
Actually, si Direk May kasing excited siya ni Anne.
07:01.7
Kasi kanina backstage, kinikilig na sila dun sa mga possible moments ng Filipino adaptation of this series.
07:08.4
And I'd like to go to you, Anne.
07:11.6
Teleserye, come back! My goodness!
07:15.3
How does it feel that this is your comeback project?
07:19.0
It's definitely worth it.
07:22.5
At alam mo yun, siguro hindi naman ako mag-a-accept ng isang project if I didn't feel it was worth leaving my family for a little bit to shoot.
07:39.1
So when they offered this to me, it was an instant yes because I love the original and I couldn't let it pass.
07:52.5
Actually, bibigyan namin kayo ng konting insider story.
07:56.4
Because nalaman ko from Anne na she really gave a heads up for this role.
08:03.6
Ganon niya kagusto magawa yung project nito.
08:06.9
So the moment I watched this series in 2021, I actually called Viva, my manager, Ms. Veronique, and asked her,
08:17.6
Ate, kung magbabalik akong sa series?
08:22.5
Parang I think I would like to do It's Okay to Not Be Okay.
08:26.5
Can Viva please check if we could get the rights for it?
08:30.0
After a week, bumalik siya sa akin.
08:32.3
Sabi niya sa akin, Anne, nasa ABS na siya.
08:37.9
So sabi ko, okay, well, if ever hindi matuloy, guys, keep in mind.
08:45.6
Pero eto na nga mukhang nakatadhana para sa iyo ang role na ito.
08:49.4
Because Mia still ended on your lap.
08:52.8
Yes, I'm so happy.
08:54.5
Thank you very much.
08:55.5
Patikim na ba ito ng mga looks na makikita natin sa teleserye?
08:59.0
At grabe, ang ganda, Josa talaga yung lumabas.
09:03.0
I mean, if you looked at the original, it's also storytelling through fashion, which is something that I love.
09:11.2
So sobra din akong excited.
09:13.2
Pinag-uusapan na namin ni Direk how we're gonna tackle it and the best way to make it our own also.
09:19.7
So may Filipino touch, guys.
09:23.0
Pumunta naman tayo dito kay Carlo.
09:27.0
So this project was offered to you a while back.
09:30.3
And you said yes.
09:31.3
And in fairness, ang dami na nangyari between then and now.
09:36.1
Pero hindi mo binitawan yung project na to.
09:43.1
Nalaman ko kasi through friends na sobrang ganda nung character ni Matmat.
09:50.2
Sinabi ng handler ko na isa sa mga favorite.
09:52.5
Niya yung series na to na huwag ko daw pakawalan.
09:56.7
And sabi nila na masyadong challenge ako.
09:58.7
And yun yung gusto ko as an actor na mag-challenge ako.
10:03.2
I'm up for the challenge.
10:04.6
And yun, kaya hindi ko binitawan.
10:06.4
Gusto kong masubukan.
10:08.1
Gusto kong gawin.
10:11.2
It's a very, very challenging role.
10:14.2
How are you preparing?
10:16.6
Ngayon, pinapanood ko yung It's Okay.
10:22.5
next month, I believe, mag-i-immersion kami.
10:25.7
Kasama ko si Derek, may aaralin ko.
10:27.5
Dahil nga mayroon yung autism syndrome disorder level 1 si Matmat.
10:32.3
So, kailangan ko malaman kung paano sila.
10:35.1
Grabe yung mga roles ng Carlo Aquino.
10:37.3
And this is another to add to your already long list of an incredible body of work.
10:42.4
Excited kami for Matmat.
10:45.6
Ako din excited and, of course, nervous.
10:48.0
Speaking of nervous, pumunta naman tayo kay Joshua.
10:52.5
Kaya hinamin kanina na medyo nervous talaga siya.
10:55.6
Kasi, Joshua, your last project was half a year ago.
11:00.8
Yes, November nag-end yung last project ko.
11:03.4
And before that project kasi, if you remember, tuloy-tuloy yung Joshua Garcia.
11:07.5
Pak-pak-pak, diretsyo.
11:08.8
And dito, medyo napahinga ka.
11:10.6
So, sabi mo kanina, ninenervyos ka kasi...
11:13.1
Babalik na ulit sa series.
11:15.2
Eh, parang napahinga yung arte ko eh.
11:17.1
So, parang diesel eh.
11:18.5
Parang yung kailangan palagi mong ginagawa.
11:22.5
Sabi niya, paano pa daw kasi kaya siya?
11:28.6
Six months, ten years.
11:30.1
Ikaw, Carlo, last series.
11:32.4
How many years ago?
11:35.7
Direct me, good luck sa different levels that you will get sa sering ito.
11:42.2
Of course, si Kim So-yoon.
11:44.5
Isa sa mga pinakamalaking actors of Korea right now.
11:48.8
Do you feel any pressure right now?
11:55.2
Oo naman, nandito din yung pressure.
11:57.6
Pero sa ngayon, nagfocus na lang ako dun sa role ko na sana mabigyan ko ng justice yung role ko.
12:03.5
Kasi mas maikikwento namin yung kabuuan din ng story.
12:10.8
Kasi mas mahaba din yung sa atin, diba?
12:13.8
So, focus muna ako dun sa pag-prepare ko sa role as Patrick Gonzalez.
12:18.9
Speaking of preparing for the role, last question, Joshua.
12:22.2
Natanong ko na din ito, I think, sa'yo a few months ago.
12:25.1
Kasi part ng inaabangan dun sa series na si Kim So-yoon, may pa-abs.
12:33.2
Joshua Garcia, are you ready for the pa-abs scenes sa Philippine adaptation?
12:39.8
Noong nag-team building kami, sabi ko kailan direct me, di ko pa napanood.
12:43.5
Napanood ko yung episode 1.
12:45.2
Episode 1 pa lang may abs na.
12:46.9
Sabi ko, pinatay ko agad ang TV.
12:49.1
Nag-workout na lang ako.
12:50.3
Yun na lang yung preparation.
12:52.2
Pero, nandito na yun.
12:53.8
So, syempre, nag-prepare ako, nag-workout ako ngayon.
12:57.3
Pero, I think, mas malaki yung importance yun nung mas emotionally prepared kami.
13:04.7
Kasi iba rin din yung itatakel naming story.
13:07.5
Medyo sensitive siya.
13:10.6
Na sakto na nakarinig ng iyong sagot, we would like to greet Belated.
13:15.2
Happy birthday, Tita Corrie Vedanes, who is joining us tonight.
13:19.7
Happy birthday, Tita.
13:20.3
O, magre-ready na daw yung abs and character ni Joshua, Tita Corrie.
13:27.0
And, of course, we would like to acknowledge the presence also of our business unit head,
13:32.8
Ms. Beste Guzman, who is here.
13:36.6
And, congratulations sa project.
13:39.2
Okay, Sir Henry, dito naman tayo sa iyo ngayon.
13:42.2
Of course, everyone is looking forward to the changes, the localization na mangyayari with the Filipino adaptation.
13:49.6
Ano ang pwede mong sabihin about that at this point?
13:54.2
Siyempre, gagawin nating Pilipino yung Korean series.
13:59.0
At in due time, malalaman niyo yung mga changes.
14:01.6
At may mga pinayagan naman kaming gawin ng Korean.
14:08.5
Halatang, ano si Sir Henry? Ano ba yung pan kasabihin?
14:11.4
Ano ba yung hindi?
14:14.2
Sabi ni Vico, in due time.
14:15.6
Actually, in the opening billboard of the original series,
14:19.6
merong parang words, may parang phrases.
14:23.4
And that's what you see actually on the stage right now.
14:26.7
You can't see it from there, but that's why kami may pa-drone shot, may pa-top shot si Direk.
14:31.3
Sa gitna ng kabubatan, sa isang palasyo, may isang prinsesa, etc., etc.
14:37.0
Yes, part yan ng set ng Star Creatives para sa inyo there.
14:41.6
Lumalabas tayo sa isang pop-up storybook.
14:45.2
Okay, Sir Henry, ang Star Creatives in your projects,
14:49.6
talagang halata at obvious na na-highlight ang iba't-ibang locations in the Philippines.
14:57.6
So, will it be the same for It's Okay to Not Be Okay?
15:00.6
We're looking at Bacolod, Iloilo, the Negros part.
15:06.8
We're looking at it.
15:09.7
Is there any specific reason why that area for the story?
15:14.9
Because nandoon yung mga Spanish old houses.
15:19.6
So, which is very, you know, mga heritage houses natin, nandoon doon.
15:25.7
Oh, looking forward to that.
15:27.5
I love that nga, that in Star Creatives, you really get to highlight different provinces.
15:31.5
So, yan ang aabangan ng mga taga-negros for this particular project.
15:35.9
I want to go back to Direk May.
15:38.7
Direk May, in the past years, you have worked in some way, shape, or form with our three actors.
15:44.5
But for this particular project, what are you most looking forward to working with?
15:49.6
Ilo, Anne, and Joshua?
15:51.9
I think one thing in common with the three, they're very good actors.
15:55.6
Mahusay sila, they're professionals.
15:58.0
And I know and I believe that they will give justice to the roles.
16:01.7
This is a very challenging project.
16:04.4
But with their capacity as actors, I know that they will give an excellent performance.
16:11.8
And that's what I'm looking forward to.
16:14.8
This is a unique combination.
16:17.6
I'm usually given.
16:19.6
Like, love teams or pairs.
16:21.9
But this is a unique combination.
16:23.9
And like what Carlo said, this is a challenge.
16:26.9
Because, iba eh, you have to bring out the chemistry.
16:30.6
But I know that chemistry comes out from great acting.
16:33.3
And I know that I won't have a problem with that because they are great actors.
16:40.8
Sabi ni Carlo, grabe naman yan.
16:43.4
Naramdaman niya yung bigat nun.
16:45.0
And I wanted to ask, of course, our three actors.
16:48.2
Carlo, let's start with you.
16:49.4
What are you most looking forward to with working with Direk May?
16:54.0
Parang mga MMK lang kayo naka-work before.
16:56.5
MMK, mga Magic Temple.
16:57.3
Yung sobrang bata ako pa.
16:59.3
Tapos yung mga iba, episodes lang.
17:01.8
Excited ako kasi parang pinalaki rin ako ng Direk May.
17:05.3
Sobrang caring kasi siya.
17:07.8
At saka yung pag may ganitong challenge, kailangan mo ng support system.
17:12.7
Kailangan mo nung taong magsasabi sa'yo na you're enough.
17:17.3
So ang laking boost.
17:19.4
Sa akin, for me, yung gano'n.
17:24.7
Ikaw naman, Joshua.
17:26.2
Siyempre, si Direk May directed one of your most memorable teleseryes also.
17:32.2
Isa sa mga teleserye ko with Star Creatives, ngayon at kailanman.
17:38.0
Yun, what are you looking forward to this time around?
17:40.5
Kasi ibang-iba yung Joshua noon sa Joshua na din ngayon.
17:44.2
Well, ngayon mas makakatrabaho ako nung matagal din si Direk May.
17:49.4
Looking forward ako na matuto sa, hindi lang kay Direk, kundi sa mga co-actors ko rin.
17:56.3
Kasi first time ko rin sila makatrabaho.
17:58.7
So, excited ako kung anong matututunan ko sa kanila through our acting.
18:04.4
Wait lang, bago ko tanungin si Anne,
18:06.4
nanotice ko parang naano ng kotli si Joshua looking at Anne.
18:10.3
Pwede ba kayo magtitigan? Pwede ba?
18:12.3
Totoo, titigan na lang.
18:13.2
Hindi na pa ako na ilang.
18:13.8
Direct pa, pa two shot naman.
18:15.2
Kasi meron eh, parang na ilang si Joshua na titigan si Anne.
18:18.0
Kasi syempre, Diyosa naman talaga.
18:19.2
Wait lang, hindi pa kami kasing nakakapag-workshop eh.
18:21.6
Sige nga, o sige.
18:22.4
Hindi pa kami ready.
18:23.6
Live, live na live.
18:24.6
Masyado mo naman kami tinigla.
18:25.7
Ano lang, mga five seconds lang. Pwede ba?
18:27.9
Mga five seconds, titigan lang.
18:30.1
Sige, Joshua. Joshua, kaya mo yan.
18:36.6
Ang hirap, hindi ka?
18:37.9
Ay, bumitawan nila!
18:38.9
Binig sa workshop na lang natin trabaho rin, ha?
18:41.4
Ang saya, di ba? Ang saya. I love it.
18:44.0
No, pero kita mo nga agad, di ba?
18:46.1
May ganun na tayong naramdaman doon pa lang.
18:49.2
Okay, let's go to you, Anne.
18:51.8
Direk May, you got to work with her in Maging Sino Ka Man.
18:55.3
Of course, we all remember that.
18:57.2
What are you looking forward to the most now, working with Direk?
18:59.9
You know, Direk May and I really work so closely in building
19:04.4
one of my personal most loved characters, Celine Magsaysay.
19:09.3
So, I'm even more excited on how we can work on Mia together.
19:15.7
Feeling ko, sobra din natin siyang mamahalit.
19:19.2
Di ba? Parang ang sarap niyang laruin, ang sarap niyang matutunan yung how she will grow.
19:29.4
And also with Sir Henry's creativity when it comes to the character development.
19:36.6
I'm so, so excited.
19:38.4
It's gonna be another awesome collaboration.
19:41.6
Definitely, I'm looking forward.
19:45.1
Oo, ako rin. Excited ako.
19:46.6
Oh, actually, backstage pa lang talaga.
19:49.2
I mean, to see our three actors and our director so excited for this project.
19:55.0
We can't help but be as excited talaga.
19:57.2
And si Sir Henry pala, I also worked with Sir Henry with my first, very first series dito sa ABS-CBN,
20:04.7
which was Hiram as Stephanie Borromeo.
20:07.8
So, it's another, I don't know.
20:09.6
Welcome back to Star Creatives.
20:11.1
Oh, welcome back to Star Creatives and Curtis.
20:14.9
Okay, before we open the floor to our friends here in the media,
20:19.2
we'd like to ask Sir Henry, ito na, kasi a lot of people have been wondering about this also.
20:23.2
So, fresh from the successful collaboration of Star Creatives with Netflix on Can't Buy Me Love of Direk Mea,
20:30.5
the question is, ang It's Okay to Not Be Okay Filipino adaptation,
20:35.4
will this project also be a collaboration with Netflix?
20:40.0
Yes, it will be on Netflix as well.
20:42.8
So, abangan niyo.
20:43.4
A Netflix, a Filipino Netflix original.
20:48.7
Agad na pakinggan.
20:51.3
As promised, our friends from the media, we would like you to ask your questions.
20:57.4
Andito na ba yung number one sa aking list?
20:59.5
Pero yes, let's go with, hello Ms. MJFT.
21:04.2
Congratulations po, Direk.
21:05.5
Especially, of course, tumalun ka agad sa isang napakalaking proyektong aabangan ulit na lahat.
21:09.8
But my question goes out to the actors, si Matt Matt, si Mia, at si Pat Pat.
21:14.9
Because actually, bukod kay Pat Pat at kay Mia,
21:18.7
ito talaga yung chemistry nila sa series yung inaabangan, especially sa latter part.
21:23.9
And I heard you're gonna go through immersion.
21:26.1
But how is it gonna be for, of course, Joshua and Anne to build that rapport for everybody to see?
21:33.5
I think lahat po kami may gagawing immersion.
21:37.2
And may mga times na magkasama kami, may mga times na mag-isa lang.
21:40.6
Like for example ako, mag-isa lang ako mag-i-immerse sa mga nurses kung paano sila mag-handle ng mga patients.
21:49.1
And I think magkakaroon din po kami ng workshop ni Anne.
21:51.9
The chemistry workshop.
21:54.4
Parang hindi na kailangan.
22:01.8
Of course, Miss Anne.
22:03.3
Yes, you know, I'm very, very excited.
22:06.5
Even with another project that I'm doing, I also did acting refreshers.
22:11.2
And I'll also prepare for this as well.
22:14.0
Kasi tatalan na naman sa isang character.
22:16.7
So, sabra akong excited because...
22:18.7
It's my first time also working with Joshua.
22:21.3
So, I'm very excited to see how we can bring out the chemistry together.
22:32.2
And of course with Carlo, I mean, fan ako ng kanyang pagiging isang aktor.
22:39.5
Kaya sabra akong excited how he will portray this character.
22:43.5
At grabe din yung chemistry nilang dalawa.
22:46.7
If you see the original, it's very...
22:51.3
So, it's gonna be fun to watch.
22:54.8
You're an author here.
22:57.8
And will you be working with the animators?
23:03.0
Kasi ganoon din ba yung takbo ng character?
23:09.4
Are we allowed to?
23:12.0
What can you share?
23:12.9
I know for sure that we will be working with Filipino illustrators.
23:19.0
So, we will have our own take on that.
23:21.2
Yun ang pwede natin i-share.
23:22.8
I'll share so far po.
23:23.8
Merong mga Filipino animators and illustrators na gagamitin ng show.
23:27.4
I-highlight natin dito sa show natin.
23:30.6
Thank you so much.
23:33.1
Thank you, Ms. MJ.
23:34.2
Next, we have Marinel Cruz from the Philippine Daily Inquirer.
23:40.7
I have two questions and the first one is for Anne.
23:44.7
In the Korean version, your character is kind of...
23:49.6
Pagdating dito, how ballyo will you go para sa iyong acting comeback sa TV?
23:58.0
Pakwento naman mga expectations.
23:59.7
Yung mga issues na kinakabahan ka.
24:03.4
Of course, as we know, the series itself tackles different aspects of mental health.
24:11.1
And my character has the antisocial personality disorder.
24:18.2
will be her journey
24:26.1
in trying to portray this
24:28.2
with utmost care.
24:30.3
Iingatan ko yung pag-portray ko
24:34.1
justice. Do you have
24:36.0
worries? Worries?
24:38.6
Hindi po kasi baliw din ako.
24:40.2
Hindi, just kidding.
24:44.3
sobra akong excited but
24:46.0
I think what's even greater
24:47.9
about this is that
24:49.1
hopefully we're able to, through this
24:51.9
series, break the stigma as well and raise
24:54.0
more awareness about mental health.
24:56.0
Okay, thanks Anne. Yung next question ko
24:58.0
is for you and all the cast
25:01.6
To those who have not seen the Korean
25:03.9
version, it's, so yun nga diba,
25:05.6
it attempts to show yung mental health
25:08.1
wellness, ganyan.
25:09.8
Have you had any emotional struggles
25:13.8
especially during the pandemic, diba?
25:17.8
you cope with them? Tapos,
25:19.9
and if there's any, who did you
25:21.7
lean on to for support?
25:24.0
Maybe Derek can start.
25:25.8
I think we all did. Yeah. Because
25:27.6
maybe we're not aware.
25:29.8
Some may be, you know, they're thinking,
25:31.7
like me, parang, I'm okay.
25:34.1
Hindi naman ako na-affect. But then,
25:39.7
That, you know, when, especially
25:41.6
when we were doing lock-ins.
25:43.9
Kasi, nag-ano na, when we were
25:45.7
doing Too Good To Be True, we were still locked.
25:47.8
In. But everyone was starting
25:49.6
to move freely. So that feeling of yung parang
25:51.9
na-ano ko na I also want
25:53.8
to step out and go out na rin.
25:56.3
And how I coped with it,
25:58.1
I think it helps that you have a very strong
25:59.9
support group. And, I mean,
26:01.9
to begin with, my husband, and then
26:03.7
my family, the rest of the family, and
26:05.7
my faith. Because I think, end of
26:07.7
the day, that's what I was holding
26:11.4
I think yun yung ano dun is,
26:13.6
knowing that it is something that
26:17.7
going through. It's a collective thing.
26:20.1
So, I'm not alone in what
26:21.7
I was going through.
26:23.6
Josh, anything to share?
26:25.2
Yes. Dagdagan ko lang yung sabi ng Direct May. Tama po
26:27.6
si Direct May na parang lahat po tayo talaga
26:29.7
may pinagdadaanan din. And, emotional
26:31.7
tayo lahat na. And, lalo na
26:33.7
I think, kami din dito sa ABS, diba?
26:36.2
Patong-patong din yung nangyara din.
26:39.9
noon, of course, my family.
26:41.9
And, yung family ko
26:43.5
sa bahay and family ko dito sa ABS.
26:45.9
Sila, Tita Corrie.
26:47.7
So, yun, mga nasasandalan pa rin
26:49.6
namin kahit nasa panahon ng mga
26:51.8
nangyari na yan, diba?
26:55.4
Miss Anne, at saka new mom ka pa noon,
26:59.7
As Jeff mentioned earlier,
27:01.7
I think everyone had their own personal
27:03.7
journey and struggles.
27:06.0
But, tulad din ng series
27:07.8
na to, it's really important that
27:11.8
to help you through the journey, which I had,
27:13.9
which was my family. Just like the series,
27:16.0
it's about family healing,
27:17.7
friendship healing, human healing.
27:20.1
It's really important that you find
27:22.8
to help you through
27:24.9
whatever it is you're going through
27:27.8
so that you're not alone.
27:31.5
Same. Ano rin, family.
27:34.9
Kasi that time, hindi nga nakakalabas.
27:37.3
Tapos, magkahiwalay kami
27:38.2
ng house ng parents ko.
27:40.3
So, every once in a while, pinupuntahan ko sila.
27:42.8
Dinadalang ko sila ng groceries.
27:45.2
Ganun lang, mag-uusap kami.
27:47.0
Kasi, sobrang layo namin.
27:48.7
Kinakamusta ko sila. Ganun lang lagi.
27:53.2
every Sunday, pinupuntahan ko sila.
27:55.6
Thank you. Thank you, guys.
27:57.2
Thank you, Marinel.
27:59.1
Thanks also for asking that question.
28:00.9
Kasi, syempre, your readers and everyone watching,
28:03.2
they'll think na parang, oh, perfect yung buhay.
28:05.0
Syempre, mga artista sila. But, you know,
28:06.7
everyone goes through struggles
28:10.5
Yes, we have another
28:12.1
friend from the media who'll ask. Charmy?
28:14.5
Charmy Joy Pagulong of the Philippines.
28:19.2
Hello. So, one question lang
28:23.0
When is it okay not to be okay?
28:26.0
And when is it not okay
28:30.1
Teka, teka. Ulit, ulit, ulit.
28:31.5
Okay. When is it okay to not be okay?
28:34.9
When is it okay not to be okay?
28:37.8
And when is it not okay
28:45.2
Anyone want to ask?
28:47.0
Do you have a crack at that question?
28:48.3
Kaya ni Direk yan.
28:52.1
Sir Henry and Direk.
28:53.5
I think the writer. I think the creative manager.
28:55.8
Ang pageant ng question.
28:57.0
Nabilito na yan sa... Ano yun eh.
28:59.9
Masasabi ko lang dyan,
29:00.9
every emotion is valid.
29:02.6
So, kung ano yung nararamdaman mo at pinagdadaanan mo,
29:07.8
Everyone has the right to not be okay.
29:11.4
Regardless of time,
29:15.3
Diba? If you're not doing well,
29:17.0
instead of keeping it in,
29:22.7
that you're not okay.
29:29.8
Is it not okay to not be okay?
29:36.9
I think ano pa na in general naman,
29:42.8
And it is not okay to not,
29:47.0
It's kind of confusing.
29:48.3
But you get my drift. Parang ganun.
29:50.7
Kasi parang feeling ko like what Anne said.
29:53.0
You have to allow yourself
29:56.9
Because if you suppress it,
29:58.6
it's all just gonna be bottled up inside.
30:01.2
So it's always okay to not be okay.
30:10.3
Anyone would like to add?
30:13.7
sagotin yung when it is not okay
30:17.0
When it's not okay
30:24.3
sinasaktang mo yung sarili mo,
30:29.1
then it's not okay to not be okay.
30:33.2
after the pandemic,
30:35.8
that's the shutdown of ABS-CBN.
30:37.6
Right now, kaya close sa akin
30:38.7
tong project na to.
30:41.2
I'm undergoing vindication up to now.
30:46.5
kaya malapit sa akin
30:48.2
tong project na to.
30:51.3
So, it's not okay to not be okay
30:53.4
kapag sinasaktang mo na yung sarili mo.
30:56.6
Thank you for sharing that
30:58.4
with all of us, Sir Henry.
31:01.5
Nako, Joshua, ikaw na lang hindi sumasagot.
31:03.9
Hindi na. Sabihin ko sana tama na lang eh.
31:09.3
Wala na po akong dadagdag.
31:12.0
Or actually, another
31:15.8
probably when you see
31:18.2
someone going through
31:19.8
something and you're okay
31:25.7
not okay to be okay.
31:27.9
If you see someone going through something,
31:30.6
you lend out your hand.
31:36.4
Candidate number.
31:39.4
Iba na, save ka dun ni Anne.
31:42.4
Thank you so much.
31:44.6
Yes. Please introduce
31:46.9
yourself. From PUSH, okay, we have
31:49.7
Nikki? Hi, Nikki.
31:53.9
Congratulations po for this.
31:55.8
We are so excited for this.
31:57.3
Kasi inaabangan natin itong adaptation
31:59.5
and the cast, the directors, and
32:01.6
us, star creatives. My question is
32:05.6
you told us kanina po that
32:07.5
you fell in love with the story,
32:09.7
with the series. What's the certain
32:11.7
trait or scene from the original
32:14.6
That nakapagsabing na sa'yo na,
32:16.6
yes, if given a chance, I'll be doing
32:18.6
ko monyong, I'll be doing that
32:22.8
I loved her journey of
32:24.5
growth. And I was talking to
32:26.5
Direct May about this earlier.
32:28.6
You see it from the very beginning
32:30.4
of the episode until the last.
32:33.0
You see it with how she dresses,
32:34.8
how she changes her hair,
32:36.4
how she speaks, how
32:38.4
she controls her emotions, how
32:40.4
she goes through the process.
32:42.6
Pati yung mga outburst niya.
32:46.5
I can see myself.
32:50.7
So I think that it was
32:52.5
really a light bulb moment of
32:54.3
grabe, she can be so
32:56.4
relatable to so many.
32:58.8
And maybe I recognized
33:00.1
and acknowledged that with myself also.
33:04.5
Thank you, Miss Anne. I'm so excited for
33:06.4
kumonyong pH version
33:11.9
To Sir Carlo and Sir Joshua,
33:14.6
this is my last question.
33:16.4
How are you feeling that you'll be working
33:18.2
with Miss Anne in this series?
33:20.8
Is her comeback series?
33:23.7
Ang initial reaction niyo po?
33:30.4
Very honored. Sobra.
33:34.5
pagkatapos ng napakatagal na panahon,
33:36.7
babalik siya ng series.
33:40.8
Parang isang karangalan talaga.
33:45.7
Sa karangalan, Anne Curtis yan.
33:50.4
Thank you po, Sir Carlo.
33:54.0
Kasi the last time we worked together,
33:57.7
for the movie, Valerba yun.
33:59.1
Sobrang tagal na nun.
34:05.3
willing and very capable naman
34:07.5
ng isang Anne Curtis.
34:12.1
Thank you so much.
34:13.1
And we're so excited.
34:16.2
Everyone is super, super excited.
34:17.8
Thank you to our friends from the media
34:20.1
for your wonderful questions.
34:22.4
And at this point, yes,
34:23.8
it is time to wrap up
34:25.6
this very fruitful project announcement.
34:28.9
I will just ask final words
34:30.9
from everyone on stage
34:33.2
about the project,
34:34.6
what you're looking forward to,
34:35.4
or kung anong dapat nilang abangan, Sir Henry.
34:39.5
Malapit na, malapit nang rumolyo si Direk V.
34:45.0
And it's okay to not be okay.
34:51.3
Yes po. Thank you.
34:52.4
Thank you for being here.
34:53.6
And I'm pretty sure,
34:55.2
magkikita-kita pa ulit tayo
34:57.6

35:04.2

36:10.5

36:13.0

36:17.0

36:31.0
in Korea at the time,
36:33.0
and it was nominated for the
36:35.0
International Emmy Awards in the U.S.
36:37.0
It's a work that has been recognized for its workmanship.
36:40.0
the first country to be remade
36:41.0
is the Philippines.
36:42.0
There's no way to deny the fact that
36:44.0
it's the Philippines,
36:45.0
and the best actors have been cast,
36:47.0
so I'm looking forward to it even more.
36:49.0
Uh, Saiko's Bang Genshana
36:51.0
is a work that has its own charm,
36:53.0
and it has become a place
36:55.0
that fits the mood and culture of the Philippines,
36:57.0
so I'm looking forward to it even more.
37:00.0
We are delighted to announce
37:02.0
the completion of our great partnership
37:07.0
We are excited to meet
37:09.0
