00:00 [Music]
00:28 [Silence]
00:38 And for today's episode, we will be joined by the only supreme actress of the Philippines.
00:45 And now, she's ready to conquer Hollywood again.
00:49 That is, our fan project, The Bad Man.
00:52 Let's all welcome, Loni Ko!
00:55 Hi! Hello, Kapepsters!
00:58 Hi, guys! Hello!
01:00 Yes, Loni, please greet our Kapepsters.
01:03 Yes, I'd like to say hello to our Kapepsters.
01:07 And I'm so happy to be here with you guys and everybody.
01:10 It's so nice to be here in the Philippines.
01:14 It's so nice to speak Tagalog, dude.
01:16 [Laughs]
01:19 I miss speaking Tagalog.
01:21 Very British.
01:22 Very British.
01:24 So, we're also very happy to have you here, Miss Loni.
01:28 We heard you're not going to be staying here for long.
01:32 Yes, yes. I know.
01:34 Actually, I'm going to be flying back to LA tomorrow.
01:38 So, I just wanted to say hi and catch up with everybody.
01:41 Say hello.
01:43 How long have you been staying here?
01:45 Well, I flew here. Has it been a week, even?
01:48 Maybe one week.
01:50 Or less. I'm not sure.
01:53 So, you've been enjoying it?
01:55 Oh, yes. Super enjoying.
01:58 For me, I'm trying my best to balance work and personal life at the same time.
02:05 And I'm just really lucky to be able to do both.
02:10 As much as I can, I'll force myself to do it. Jet lag is not a thing.
02:15 So, yeah.
02:17 You're just trying to penetrate.
02:19 Oh, yeah. Mindset is everything.
02:22 So, now, let's get right to it.
02:25 First, before anything else, congratulations on your new film, "Bad Man."
02:31 So, what was your initial reaction when you got the role?
02:36 Oh, God. First of all, I was super excited.
02:40 I mean, I read the script. It was so funny.
02:45 It had all the elements that I really want in a movie.
02:48 And more than anything, amazing director, amazing writer.
02:53 And then, the people that I actually look up to, and I've been watching,
02:57 and then, I got to be in their scene.
03:01 It was, of course, my initial reaction was I'm intimidated.
03:06 When we started having meetings and readings for the part.
03:12 But it was so nice to feel that.
03:15 So, every time I do these things, I have to make sure--
03:18 Well, I'm shy. I'm really shy.
03:21 No, but I really am.
03:23 And I'm so intimidated by all these amazing actors, amazing people.
03:28 And then, I just need to brush off what happened.
03:31 I'm not shy anymore. I need to brush aside that fear.
03:35 So, yeah.
03:37 But the beauty about the challenge is that you're both willing to complete that.
03:41 Oh, yes. Of course. I completely agree.
03:44 So, of course, this is one of the things that I've always wanted to do.
03:50 Just to be part of this project.
03:52 It's really a dream come true.
03:54 And it was even--
03:56 Of course, it is a dream come true.
03:57 But when I was on set, I was on high the whole time.
04:04 Until it ended.
04:06 I think it went until now. I still am.
04:08 Because it's just hard to get over something that was that fun.
04:13 And it shows that there's something there.
04:15 Now, without giving away anything, can you tell us a little bit about the film?
04:20 And what role you play?
04:22 Yes, yes.
04:23 Well, I play the partner of one of my co-actors.
04:29 It's hard to say. He's probably the good guy or something.
04:34 So, yeah.
04:36 It's something that I like.
04:40 Because I get to play the partner of Mr. Johnny Simmons.
04:46 So, that's--
04:48 Yeah. I didn't expect that to happen.
04:51 Never thought of it.
04:53 Now that it happened, I'm like, I can't even explain how I feel about it.
05:01 Let's do a little bit of fact-checking.
05:05 You're not saying that this is your third Hollywood film.
05:09 You're not saying that the report is your second.
05:11 Yes.
05:12 Really, it's your third.
05:14 This is my third project, actually, that I've shot and filmed abroad.
05:19 It's funny because I've been so busy trying to balance life and work at the same time
05:26 that I wasn't able to share this project that I did.
05:33 Last year, I think I shot it--
05:35 This is January, Julie.
05:36 I think January, February.
05:40 I shot this film called "My Sister's Bones."
05:45 It's from a novel from Noala Elwood.
05:48 We shot it in the UK.
05:50 It was a very good, great experience again.
05:53 Yes.
05:54 Okay. So, it's also shot in the UK.
05:56 Shot in the UK, yes.
05:57 That's her third.
05:59 Third. Yay!
06:03 You mentioned it's shot in the UK.
06:05 Can you imagine that?
06:07 We shot it in the US, Alabama.
06:10 Yes. We shot it there in Alabama.
06:13 I probably was there for a month or something.
06:17 It was nice. Great experience.
06:20 It was my first time to stay in Alabama.
06:24 It was nice because I had my life there and then I would go to set and then back again.
06:32 Do everything on my own.
06:34 I wish I had Julie there with me.
06:36 Just me.
06:38 Wow, as an independent girl.
06:41 It's very different here.
06:44 It's very different there because our system here,
06:48 I'd probably say that I have my whole team.
06:52 When I was there, of course, it's for everybody.
06:57 It was quite an experience.
07:02 The tradition for the role is a bun.
07:06 Okay. Funny story is that I was pitched.
07:09 The casting director pitched me for the movie.
07:13 Saw me in another project and pitched me for the movie.
07:19 Then we met up and they offered me the part when we had this meeting.
07:27 It wasn't specifically for this but for something else.
07:31 I think they just thought this came along.
07:35 Before we proceed, PEPsters, we are currently live on Facebook, YouTube, and Kumu.
07:41 You may leave your comments down below.
07:44 We'll have a lot of hearing for you or greet you guys.
07:48 Just continue to write your comments.
07:51 Next question.
07:54 Earlier reports, we read that it deals with solving a murder or a crime.
08:01 We want to know, are you into that kind of genre?
08:05 Oh, yeah. Very.
08:07 Not just bad and action comedies.
08:11 Those are the things that when you just want to relax and escape from real life.
08:17 You just want to enjoy and watch a movie.
08:19 That's probably one of the things that I really enjoy.
08:21 Aside from that, I also like watching documentaries about catching killers.
08:26 Amazing.
08:28 I'm guilty of that.
08:31 It's also an action comedy, right?
08:36 Yes.
08:37 We know you're good at action comedy. We want to know the murder mystery.
08:41 Yes.
08:42 You're also interested in that.
08:44 I think that's the beauty of it.
08:47 When you get really good scripts.
08:49 It's just nice to be able to live a different life and to be able to do different genres.
08:56 To work with such an amazing cast.
08:59 Do you watch series or films to help you with your career?
09:05 Or your background?
09:07 I probably watched one of the movies of our director.
09:14 The project that he's written in the past.
09:18 I definitely watch that so that I know the tone of the movie.
09:27 The tone of the movie, the tone of the acting.
09:30 Since you got the role, is there a difference in working with international production compared to local?
09:38 Of course, there are differences.
09:41 But there's only one way to shoot a movie.
09:43 We're basically doing the same thing.
09:45 It's also different because here in the Philippines, when you shoot a TV series versus a movie,
09:55 the tone of your acting is different.
09:57 Let's just put it that way.
09:59 In general, not even comparing or anything, it's just every director is different.
10:09 Every production is different.
10:11 Everyone has their own style of doing things.
10:13 It's not necessarily like, "Oh, how we do it in the Philippines is different from how we do it in America."
10:20 But that's true about the tone because it's the target market.
10:25 So, tell us, sir, you have to do a long pause and then a look back.
10:30 You have to look at your co-actors.
10:33 The camera is still rolling and you're still looking at each other.
10:36 Yes, you have to be careful.
10:38 You're looking at each other and you're like, "Is this how it really is in real life?"
10:43 That's just how it is.
10:46 But you enjoy these things because they're different.
10:49 But it's fun because it's just fun to feel like you're doing everything.
10:56 I mean, right?
10:59 I might be wrong.
11:01 It's true.
11:02 Nice that you pointed it out.
11:04 So, earlier you already said that one of the challenges is that you're intimidated or a little shy.
11:10 Very quickly, what would you call the most challenging part of it and what's the most enjoyable part of filming?
11:18 Oh, my gosh.
11:22 Getting on set and just the fear.
11:26 Number one, it's really going to be a hindrance or it's going to help you with the fear.
11:31 But you have to overcome that feeling.
11:34 And so many times it's happened to me, not just in Badman, not just international projects, but in general.
11:42 When I have a new character, you have no idea how nervous I get.
11:48 Like, oh, my God.
11:49 As simple as Miss Charo Santos' character.
11:51 Those things.
11:54 And then you just have to rewire your brain and just not be starstruck for a minute and just be in character.
12:05 So, yeah, I think that's one of the hardest things.
12:08 And the best part of it is when you overcome it and you're relaxed and you're present in the moment.
12:15 It feels so good because I remember when we were shooting a scene in Badman.
12:23 That was the most important scene for me in my character.
12:28 And I just kept thinking about it.
12:31 But when I was there on set and it was freezing.
12:34 It was so cold.
12:35 In the Philippines, when we're on set, the power is always on.
12:42 So we had to change our clothes.
12:44 The sponsor said, "We're still there."
12:47 We still had the heat.
12:52 Oh, yeah.
12:53 Yeah, and then we have to take off our jackets and pretend like it's not cold.
13:00 So I had a scene with my co-actor, Johnny, where I was shaking and freezing.
13:14 I was like, "Don't let it show."
13:17 But I'm really shaking.
13:19 So it was nice.
13:20 It was such a good experience.
13:22 Oh, yeah.
13:23 The winter shooting.
13:25 Oh, yeah.
13:26 It was so cold.
13:27 You have to pretend.
13:28 Yeah, you have to pretend.
13:29 It's so cool.
13:30 It's basically how I pretend in front of everyone that I'm not starstruck.
13:34 But deep inside, my God.
13:36 I'm really starstruck.
13:38 So the most challenging and most enjoyable part circles around fear.
13:43 Yes.
13:44 Yes.
13:45 What's the difference between your character in "Badman" and your previous character in "Batang Kyapo"?
13:54 I'm confused.
13:56 What's the difference?
13:58 There's a big difference.
13:59 Mokang is mokang.
14:00 Wait.
14:01 I'll just go with it.
14:03 Because in your last interview, you said that you really wanted to do action.
14:08 Yes.
14:09 Because in "Badman," it's action.
14:10 Yes.
14:11 But my character gets to do more comedy and romantic comedy vibes.
14:17 So it has everything.
14:20 All elements.
14:21 Yeah.
14:22 How different was it from all the rest of the characters you've done before?
14:27 Oh.
14:28 It's very different.
14:31 Because it's winter.
14:32 Because it's winter.
14:33 And also, it's very different because the style is different.
14:39 The style of the way we shoot the film is different.
14:44 So, and the character as well, of course, it's very different because basically, my environment, the script, the tone, everything else.
14:56 Everything was just something that I believe I've never done before.
15:01 And when I was there on set, it felt like it was something that I've never done before as well.
15:06 It's also different from the two other Hollywood films.
15:09 Yes.
15:10 Very different.
15:11 Very different.
15:12 Okay.
15:13 So what's a lesson or a feeling that you want the viewers to feel when they watch the movie?
15:18 Well, in terms of the movie, I feel like I want them to feel just like really happy and, you know, satisfied because they've been, I want them to feel entertained.
15:34 Which I feel like they will definitely feel that because when I read the script, I was laughing and I was crying.
15:43 And I was like, all the emotions you'll feel.
15:46 So it's just, it's nice.
15:48 Fantastic writing.
15:50 Great director.
15:51 So I'm just like so happy to have been part of it.
15:54 Yeah.
15:55 That proves it's very well written because you felt it.
15:58 Oh yeah, very well written.
16:01 And then, so now I'm so excited to see the outcome of everything we did.
16:07 Now, how proud you are that there are a lot of Filipino talents who are getting to know the international stage?
16:13 So proud.
16:14 So proud.
16:15 You have no clue.
16:16 I think I always admire and you really have to commend people who pursue their dreams.
16:24 It's not an easy thing to do, especially dreams are dreams, you know, and it's nice to daydream about this.
16:31 You put on your headphones and then you imagine things and you probably manifest it.
16:36 But then when they become goals, then it's a different story.
16:42 When you try to achieve them and make them goals, then the hard work comes in.
16:48 And you have to commend these people.
16:50 So there are a lot of people you have to look up to because it takes a lot of courage to be in a room, you know, to be surrounded by the best of the best.
17:06 And like you said, commending these people, that also means commending you because you're one of these people.
17:13 Thank you.
17:14 And also for me, I did put up a production company.
17:18 And one of the things that our main goal is to really showcase Filipino talent, you know, because it's like I've been in the industry for quite some time.
17:32 And I feel like it's just nice to showcase what we can do.
17:41 We have really good actors here and I've worked with a lot of them.
17:45 And I want to see them shine globally.
17:51 We have really great directors and great writers.
17:56 And I want their stories to be told as well.
18:00 And so that's something that our mission in Celebi Productions is that as well.
18:05 So hopefully that's something that we get to do.
18:09 And whoever wants to join this mission, give me a call.
18:13 She's here.
18:16 It's really worth to show that it's a Filipino.
18:19 Yeah.
18:20 The pool of talent here is so big.
18:23 Yeah, so big.
18:24 And our passion in our work is different.
18:31 We've reached the point that we would work long hours.
18:39 No sleep.
18:41 People who do that are the ones who love their job.
18:43 And so it's just nice to see people do something internationally.
18:52 And I would love to see more people.
18:56 More Filipinos to achieve that.
18:59 And all different aspects about it.
19:03 It doesn't have to be anything actually.
19:06 Even as simple as like my sister is a chef in America.
19:12 And it's just like she's thriving.
19:14 You know what I mean?
19:15 Even different aspects of life.
19:17 It doesn't have to necessarily just be entertainment.
19:20 It's just nice.
19:22 It's nice when you see a Filipino doing well in other places.
19:26 Of course, in the Philippines.
19:27 If you're doing well here in the Philippines, that's great.
19:30 And that's a huge achievement.
19:31 You know what I mean?
19:32 And it's just nice.
19:35 I'm always happy for people when they achieve their dreams.
19:40 Even as simple as like -- yeah, I'm so happy as a Dua Lipa fan.
19:45 [Laughter]
19:47 I saw she posted before.
19:50 She did her duet with Elton John.
19:55 And got to sing with him on stage.
19:59 And she was saying it was a dream come true.
20:02 And even people like that who've achieved whatever it is.
20:05 Who've achieved everything.
20:08 And it's just nice seeing even them achieve the success of other people.
20:14 Oh, that's really nice.
20:15 And we're really looking forward to more projects from you.
20:19 And more successes.
20:20 Thank you.
20:21 Thank you so much.
20:22 That's for the Batman Q&A.
20:24 Now we proceed to the most exciting part.
20:26 Okay, what is it?
20:28 Gossip?
20:29 Just kidding.
20:30 Gossip.
20:31 [Laughter]
20:32 Now it's called Pep Challenge.
20:34 Guilty or not guilty?
20:37 Oh, no.
20:38 Yeah.
20:39 [Sound effect]
20:42 Tell us if it applies to you.
20:44 Guilty.
20:45 If not, then not guilty.
20:47 Because your new project is called Batman.
20:50 Yeah.
20:51 So we're going to say statements that you're supposedly bad at.
20:55 Okay.
20:56 Just let us know if you're not guilty of it.
20:58 Okay, let's start with the first statement.
21:00 I'm a bad at cooking.
21:02 Guilty or not guilty?
21:04 [Laughter]
21:07 I think I'm guilty.
21:09 I think because I don't do it as often.
21:11 Don't explain.
21:12 No, but my husband says because, of course, he has to say it.
21:15 Okay.
21:16 That he said, "You're pretty good at this."
21:18 I'm like, "Really?"
21:19 Or maybe because you just have to say it.
21:22 Like, default, he has to say that I'm good at cooking.
21:25 Because he has no choice because I'm the one who cooks.
21:28 Really?
21:29 [Laughter]
21:31 Well, it's the dynamic that you cook more.
21:34 I cook more.
21:35 Wow.
21:36 Well, now I try to be a wife.
21:38 I'm trying to be a wife.
21:40 [Laughter]
21:42 Okay, but you never say, "Oh, I'm not so good."
21:46 Always perfect.
21:47 I'm the one who says, "I think it's a bit bland."
21:51 [Laughter]
21:52 "I think it's a bit bland."
21:53 I think I put too much garlic.
21:56 [Laughter]
21:57 So, okay.
21:58 I'm the one who says, "She's just going to eat it."
22:01 She's not choosy.
22:02 What's your favorite thing to cook for her?
22:05 For salad?
22:06 [Laughter]
22:09 That's hard.
22:10 That's hard.
22:11 I'll just add quinoa and mix it.
22:15 And then it's perfect.
22:16 I'm just kidding.
22:17 That's the easiest thing.
22:19 My favorite thing to cook for him?
22:21 Yeah.
22:22 Well, it's quite easy.
22:24 Pasta.
22:25 I wasn't lying when I said --
22:27 Okay, the tarta.
22:29 Well, you try to mix.
22:31 [Laughter]
22:32 I mean, like, any longer than that.
22:34 I am guilty.
22:36 I'm terrible.
22:37 Okay, you're guilty.
22:39 I have nothing more to say.
22:40 I'm just kidding.
22:41 I'm just kidding.
22:42 Call me, I'll do everything except for that.
22:45 [Laughter]
22:46 It's hard to explain.
22:48 It's hard to explain.
22:49 I really don't know.
22:50 Okay.
22:51 Second statement, I'm bad at playing sports.
22:54 No, I'm actually -- I'm pretty good somehow.
22:57 Wow!
22:58 You guys, one of the celebrities we look up to in the health and fitness category.
23:04 What's your favorite sport?
23:06 Boxing.
23:07 Yeah, boxing is my favorite.
23:09 Volleyball as well.
23:11 When I was in high school, grade school, I would play volleyball a little bit.
23:15 So I enjoy sports.
23:17 I mean, yeah, it's something that I really enjoy doing.
23:21 And you're good at -- where does the passion for boxing come from?
23:26 Probably my dad.
23:28 Oh.
23:29 Pompeang and all that.
23:30 Oh.
23:31 I don't know where it came from, but yeah.
23:34 One day you're like, "Yeah, I want to box."
23:35 You have no clue how rowdy I am when I'm watching a fight.
23:42 I'm like, "Oh my God."
23:44 You're really physical.
23:45 Yes, I'm really shy.
23:47 So yeah, I enjoy that.
23:49 Okay.
23:50 So you're not guilty of that.
23:51 Next statement, I'm bad at savings.
23:54 Oh my God!
23:56 I wish I was good.
23:57 I mean, here's the thing.
23:59 I think I'm pretty okay because I don't really buy material things.
24:07 Right?
24:08 I'm so bad when it comes to plane tickets.
24:11 That's what it is.
24:13 Okay.
24:14 I mean, I think I'd like to consider -- Judy, am I pretty good?
24:17 I think I'm --
24:18 [laughter]
24:21 Oh, yeah.
24:22 I think I'm pretty good.
24:23 I'm okay.
24:24 I could do better.
24:25 You could do better.
24:26 But how about when it comes to shopping, are you more of a splurge?
24:29 No, I don't shop at all.
24:30 Really?
24:31 Actually, no.
24:33 Wow.
24:34 There was this one time that we were out of the country and then everyone was like,
24:39 "Let's go shopping."
24:40 I was like, "Actually, I booked this guy who's known to be the best masseuse in the whole world."
24:47 So everyone else was shopping while I was massaging.
24:50 [laughter]
24:51 I really enjoy those kinds of experiences, walking around.
24:57 I'd like to consider myself simple when it comes to all these things.
25:00 Of course, I love fashion and I love really nice stuff.
25:03 But then unless I feel like I can't live without it, I don't buy it.
25:09 Oh, okay.
25:10 Well, talking about finances, are you big on investments?
25:15 Yes, yes.
25:16 That's one of the things, Siguro, probably why I try to, as much as possible, invest.
25:25 Property, so it's just something that I would like to focus on.
25:31 Of course, it's nice to have these things.
25:35 Of course, it's nice to have bags here and there, but it's just not something that doesn't give me joy that much,
25:42 unless it's a gift.
25:43 I'm like, "Thank you."
25:44 I'm very happy.
25:46 Can you get me another one?
25:47 [laughter]
25:49 So, that's why my husband is very good when it comes to giving presents.
25:55 Thank you.
25:56 I'm just kidding.
25:57 No, but yeah, so I think investments, that's really important for me.
26:03 Yeah, okay.
26:04 Fourth statement, I'm bad at waking up early.
26:07 I'm so good at that.
26:09 I'm not guilty.
26:10 Not guilty.
26:11 I'm like, "I'm awake. I'm an early bird. 4 a.m., I'm awake."
26:16 My husband hates me for that.
26:18 Everyone hates me for that.
26:19 My dog probably hates me for that.
26:21 Because I'm already awake and I'm alive, ready to start my day, having my coffee, and then I'll go out for a run.
26:28 Yeah, everyone hates me for that.
26:30 Earlier, I was guilty.
26:31 I woke up everyone in the house.
26:33 For sure, they're celebrating when I'm not here in Manila because everyone can sleep.
26:38 When I'm with Ate Vina, she can sleep soundly because no one is waking up and my coffee machine is making the sound of 4 a.m.
26:48 Yeah, that's true.
26:49 What are you doing?
26:50 5 a.m.
26:51 I'm getting emotional.
26:52 No, it's just--
26:54 But you're ready, right?
26:56 Oh, yeah.
26:57 Conditioning yourself for the Christmas.
26:58 Oh, yeah. I don't know what it is, but it's my me time.
27:00 Weirdly, it's like--you know how when people--I feel like people meditate and all that stuff.
27:07 But mine is like having--while everyone's asleep, it's not that busy yet.
27:15 Because I know that the moment when 6 o'clock strikes, it's like the day of everything has started.
27:22 But for me, I've started already.
27:24 I don't know. It gives me that certain feeling of--I don't know--being ahead.
27:30 Just kidding.
27:31 I'm kidding.
27:32 Just being ready.
27:34 Just being ready for the day.
27:37 I don't know.
27:38 When I start my day at 4 a.m., I don't know.
27:41 Everything seems right.
27:43 My mood is good.
27:46 For some people, they're just like this when they wake up at 4 a.m.
27:50 But I'm happy.
27:53 So you're not guilty of that?
27:55 Not guilty.
27:56 Our last statement.
27:57 I'm bought at recalling people's name.
28:00 Oh, what do you mean?
28:01 Recalling people's name.
28:03 I can be guilty.
28:09 But I think I'm pretty good with names because I try to repeat their names.
28:14 Especially when I'm meeting someone for the first time.
28:17 Yeah.
28:18 And you know, because I think I'm pretty good.
28:22 Am I good at it, Julie?
28:24 You're testing it.
28:25 Oh my God!
28:27 FK and Tin.
28:28 Oh!
28:30 Not guilty.
28:31 Not guilty.
28:32 I'm sweating for a bit.
28:35 She's having a psychoshock.
28:37 What's that?
28:38 I'm sweating.
28:40 I'm sweating.
28:41 I shouldn't sweat on my clothes but I'm sweating.
28:47 I'm sweating.
28:48 Okay.
28:51 Okay.
28:52 You survived.
28:53 I survived.
28:54 So I'm not guilty.
28:55 You survived.
28:56 When it comes to scripts, you're like this.
28:59 Yeah, actually I'm very good when it comes to scripts.
29:01 Oh!
29:02 Because I trained myself for like how many years to do that.
29:05 I remember back then, I really counted.
29:08 I had exams starting high school.
29:12 And then for me to, I memorized those pages before the exam.
29:20 Wow!
29:22 And I had to do it before because that's when I absorbed it.
29:28 Oh!
29:29 And, oh, I shouldn't say that.
29:31 I should've shared it but maybe I can share it now.
29:34 You can share it now.
29:35 You can share it now.
29:36 You can say it.
29:38 So, everyone does it.
29:43 Let's not pretend.
29:44 I know.
29:45 I know.
29:46 I know.
29:47 So, my best friend in high school, so I studied.
29:52 I studied or I read and I memorized it.
29:56 Yeah.
29:57 And I was just like, oh, I was answering the exams.
29:59 I was like perfectly, I know everything.
30:01 There's this one, like one number.
30:05 I was like, shucks.
30:06 I said, oh my God, I'm not sure about this number.
30:08 I was like, maybe my best friend, because I was doing taping that time,
30:14 maybe she studied more than me.
30:17 So, I really checked the answer.
30:21 I was like, maybe she's right.
30:24 I wrote the answer.
30:27 I made one mistake.
30:29 That's what I planned.
30:30 Oh my gosh.
30:32 I said, maybe she's watching the class.
30:36 I said, how dare you not study?
30:39 And I knew the answer.
30:41 That's why it's a lesson learned, trust yourself.
30:44 Wow.
30:45 So, I got something from the cheating story.
30:49 I feel so bad.
30:50 Cheating story.
30:51 So, trust yourself and study, guys.
30:56 That's all.
30:57 Oh my God, is it bad that I prepared this?
31:00 No.
31:01 You won't be back as a teacher.
31:03 Teacher, I'm so sorry.
31:05 Okay.
31:08 Before we go to the personal question, there are a lot of pepsters watching us and commenting.
31:13 Let's greet them.
31:15 Hi to all the pepsters, my fans.
31:17 I hope you're having fun as much as I am.
31:20 Obviously, I'm having fun.
31:23 There are comments.
31:26 There.
31:29 From Grizelle.
31:31 Hi.
31:32 Are we going to expect a lot from you, love?
31:34 Yes.
31:35 We're excited.
31:36 A lot.
31:37 Of course, aside from these projects that we are talking about, I'm going to be flying back here to shoot movies then.
31:46 So, I'm just fixing my schedule.
31:49 Yes, of course, I have a lot of projects to do.
31:52 Yes.
31:53 Exactly.
31:54 Just like Grizelle.
31:56 Yes.
31:57 Okay.
31:58 Now, personal questions.
32:00 Yes.
32:01 I'm so nervous.
32:03 How is life with a husband?
32:06 Yes.
32:07 It's fun.
32:09 It's very different.
32:11 Yeah.
32:12 Because all my life, I keep saying this, all I know is work.
32:18 Since I was 15, I was already working.
32:21 And then now, it's just suddenly, I'm trying to find the balance of my personal life and what I'm passionate about.
32:32 And so, it's nice because that's what life is about, right?
32:36 It's not just all about work.
32:38 And it's about relationships and being with the people that you love and having time to rest and recuperate and work at the same time.
32:50 With my husband, I found balance in my life.
32:55 And that's what I needed.
32:57 Because I've been on the go for 15 years.
33:00 And when I tell you how much sleep I've had, if I could just total how many years, that's probably it.
33:05 So, it's like, but I love it.
33:11 You know what I mean?
33:12 But at some point, you have to learn to balance life.
33:17 And that's what I'm trying to do now.
33:19 And then you get to discover more about yourself by going through that.
33:23 A lot about myself.
33:26 I mean, I could be a good cook.
33:28 Yeah, a lot of things.
33:32 And it's nice to discover things because it also helps you with work.
33:38 And also, it's just nice.
33:40 It's such a great feeling to find balance in life.
33:44 Balance.
33:45 So far, what's your most memorable experience after the wedding?
33:51 After the wedding?
33:52 There's so many.
33:56 But it's more of like, I think the day-to-day life of being married is the little things that you cherish.
34:11 It's so simple, but I got sick after work.
34:22 That's what happens to me when I'm done filming or when I'm done with work.
34:26 I'm always on the move.
34:27 My body would suddenly drop.
34:29 But it's nice to have someone bring you breakfast, bring you coffee.
34:35 Okay, so this is the fourth story.
34:37 I'm usually up at 4 o'clock in the morning.
34:41 I'm usually up.
34:42 I wake up right away.
34:44 The first time, he woke up and said, "What's wrong with me? What's wrong?"
34:50 I stayed in bed until 10 or 9 AM.
34:53 He said, "There's something wrong."
34:55 So I wasn't feeling well.
34:57 There's something wrong when you stay up all night.
34:59 So, as simple as bringing you coffee, bringing you medicine.
35:03 So, it's nice to have someone like that.
35:06 I'm not just independent.
35:09 Yes, yes.
35:10 Wow.
35:11 I can rely on someone.
35:12 Exactly.
35:13 Because I've been so independent all my life.
35:15 And to be honest, I'm still learning to lean on someone.
35:21 And it's nice to let go of that.
35:23 They keep saying masculine energy.
35:25 And I've had that all my life.
35:26 And I probably still have it.
35:27 But I have someone that I can actually be, you know, feel like a lady in the world.
35:38 Yeah.
35:39 Wow.
35:40 She's feeling the butterflies.
35:41 I'm feeling the butterflies.
35:43 That's the feeling.
35:45 That's the feeling.
35:46 If you've got a good husband, that's the feeling.
35:49 That's the question.
35:50 If you've got a good husband, that's the feeling.
35:53 Okay.
35:54 So, you're planning on travels.
35:56 Yeah.
35:57 What are your dream travel destinations with your husband?
36:02 Oh, well, we haven't even had our honeymoon.
36:06 But I would like to go to Greece.
36:07 I've never been to Greece.
36:09 I want to go to the Maldives.
36:11 You know, just have a relaxing time.
36:14 Is there a beach?
36:15 Yes, I love a beach.
36:17 Out in the sun.
36:19 So, that's what I really want.
36:21 I want to sit by the ocean, just, you know, having beer and then reading a book.
36:30 But you won't buy a plane ticket.
36:32 Well, yeah.
36:36 Well, I will or I will not.
36:38 I don't know.
36:39 But you know what?
36:40 That's really my goal.
36:41 Travel.
36:43 Okay.
36:44 That's where I...
36:45 No restrictions.
36:46 Yeah.
36:47 Well, I try my best to be practical.
36:52 But sometimes it's hard.
36:54 But yeah, when it comes to traveling, of course.
36:57 But yeah.
36:58 Have you talked about the plan to have a baby?
37:01 Well, wow.
37:03 Because everyone is excited.
37:04 Yes.
37:05 I'm sure, I know.
37:07 It's something that, of course, in God's time, we would love that.
37:11 And I can't wait to see a little Monty.
37:16 You know what I mean?
37:17 That's something that, yeah.
37:18 In God's time.
37:20 In God's time.
37:21 And of course, when it happens, it will be great.
37:25 Yeah.
37:26 Let's all pray for that.
37:27 And for your health and to come back.
37:29 Yes, thank you.
37:30 Thanks, guys.
37:31 That wraps it up.
