00:00 Have you been to Busan?
00:02 I think so.
00:03 Train to Busan?
00:05 My dear viewers, here are the first-time listeners.
00:10 What's that?
00:12 It sounds familiar.
00:14 Why does it sound familiar?
00:17 It sounds familiar.
00:19 Do you think it came from Busan?
00:21 Are you serious?
00:23 Next!
00:27 Guess whose voice it is. You'll win...
00:30 1,000 pesos from him.
00:34 Where is he?
00:37 Welcome, my dear listeners!
00:41 There are so many surprises!
00:43 My dear listeners, our U.S. friend, Reia Santos, is back!
00:51 I'm so jealous!
00:53 Your set is so beautiful.
00:56 Richard, please turn around.
00:58 Are you going to tell us the news?
01:00 I think I missed that.
01:02 I think I missed that.
01:05 Did you feel it?
01:07 Turn around.
01:10 That's magic.
01:11 That's power.
01:13 That's from Canada, my dear listeners.
01:16 Stay tuned because we'll continue our story with Ms. Reia Santos.
01:22 The question is, "Is she back for good?"
01:25 That's a question that many people ask.
01:27 Let's find out later when we return with...
01:30 Unang Girit!
01:32 Hey!
01:34 Where are you?
01:36 We have a Balikbayan box here.
01:38 Where?
01:39 Down there.
01:41 That Balikbayan box is from Canada.
01:44 What's the gift for us?
01:46 To find out what's in it,
01:49 we'll open the Balikbayan box.
01:51 Ta-da!
01:52 Shake!
01:54 It's so heavy.
01:55 It's good that you fit in.
01:57 Let's welcome again, Reia Santos!
02:00 She's here.
02:02 Come here.
02:03 I miss my Balikbayan family.
02:05 You're here.
02:06 Okay.
02:07 Why did you leave?
02:09 I'm so happy to be with you.
02:12 I'm surprised.
02:13 Richard, turn around.
02:15 No, no.
02:16 Turn around.
02:17 Anyway, Reia, thank you for visiting us for the first time for the new set.
02:22 What can we put in our set?
02:24 It's so beautiful.
02:25 Richard, level up!
02:27 Let's bring her here.
02:30 For you, Richard.
02:32 You're turning around.
02:34 Turn around.
02:35 Okay, turn around.
02:37 Let's give Reia an example of turning around.
02:40 What can you say about our new studio?
02:42 It's so beautiful.
02:43 It looks like we're making a lot of money.
02:45 No budget?
02:46 You're always making money.
02:48 It looks like there's no affordability crisis in Unang Girit.
02:51 Why?
02:52 Do you have to go around Omni?
02:54 No, no.
02:55 I can suggest that you belong.
02:58 Reia, a lot of people are excited when you come back.
03:01 We're the number one excited.
03:03 Of course, we miss you.
03:04 Tell us about the happenings in your life.
03:07 You know, my life there is…
03:10 Of course, I'm still doing Omni.
03:12 Omni Filipino.
03:13 You're a newscaster there?
03:14 Yes, I'm a newscaster for Filipinos and Filipino-Canadians in Canada.
03:19 And of course, I'm busy being a mother and cheering for my children, Uno and Yuwan.
03:25 Because Uno is a volleyball player in BC and Yuwan is into basketball.
03:31 So, you know, nothing extraordinary.
03:34 It's really a family life.
03:36 Enjoy life.
03:37 Family life.
03:38 Work, pay bills.
03:39 Which is the usual stuff that everyone does.
03:42 It's just different.
03:43 It's just Canada.
03:45 That's 2019.
03:47 Uno doesn't look like that anymore.
03:50 He looks like an artist now.
03:51 Uno is a model.
03:52 Uno is now 6'3".
03:54 Uno is the growing boy of Reia.
03:58 Yes, Anjo.
04:00 What's Anjo's name?
04:03 In volleyball, right?
04:04 Yes, yes.
04:05 So, what is the typical family life?
04:10 Of course, it's really hard when you're left with a loved one.
04:15 I'm referring to, of course, our parents.
04:18 I'm sure the Filipinos abroad can also relate.
04:21 When you're far away,
04:23 They're close.
04:24 When you're far away,
04:26 They're close.
04:27 When you're far away, of course, your memories, especially they're not getting
04:31 Any younger.
04:32 Any younger.
04:33 On my Facebook feed, I'm almost visiting my dad.
04:38 Our generations, right?
04:41 They say it's like a sandwich generation.
04:44 The sandwich generation where you're taking care of your parents at the same time
04:48 You're taking care of your kids.
04:50 So, it's a relief also.
04:54 That's the hardest part of the job.
04:56 Yes, the balance.
04:58 You have to be there for your kids at the same time.
05:00 You want to spend time with your parents too.
05:03 Because it's a way of thanking them.
05:06 You want to serve them too.
05:08 But always have time for yourself.
05:10 Of course.
05:11 This is my time for myself.
05:14 Aside from visiting your parents,
05:16 What are your other plans for visiting the Philippines?
05:20 Do you have a movie offer?
05:21 I already chose one.
05:23 How much?
05:24 No, I mean,
05:26 My dad's birthday is just around the corner.
05:31 That's why I'm here.
05:32 He turns 74 on March 20.
05:35 Happy birthday!
05:36 Happy birthday!
05:37 Daddy Tony!
05:38 He's watching.
05:39 My dad will cry.
05:40 He might cry again.
05:41 And my dad's caregiver is Josie.
05:46 She's Rose.
05:47 Thank you so much.
05:48 Good morning!
05:49 Good morning!
05:50 Just to visit my dad,
05:51 Spend time with him.
05:53 It's almost a year since he was hospitalized.
05:57 He's in the hospital.
05:58 That's why.
05:59 That was last year.
06:00 I was here for almost two months because of his recovery.
06:04 But every day,
06:06 My dad always says,
06:07 Every waking up is a blessing.
06:09 True.
06:10 So one day at a time,
06:11 Daddy, you're there!
06:14 We've been waiting for you since yesterday.
06:17 What's your message to our viewers?
06:20 Yes, I'm waiting.
06:21 I said earlier that I'm excited to see the studio again.
06:26 To be talking to you guys again.
06:28 To wake up early in the morning.
06:30 I woke up at 4 o'clock.
06:32 I knocked at 5 o'clock.
06:34 It was 5.30 already.
06:36 Thank you so much.
06:39 I still receive messages that we missed you in Unang Hirit.
06:45 Or like,
06:46 "Morning, girl! How are you in Canada?"
06:48 I'm a big fan of Unang Hirit.
06:50 And I'm proud to be a part of the Unang Hirit family.
06:59 Even though I left 5 years ago, 2019.
07:02 Every time the staff is here,
07:05 If they reach out to me,
07:07 "Can I visit you?"
07:09 Or even us,
07:10 Sometimes, the schedules don't reconcile.
07:13 But I'm always happy to be here.
07:16 I'm really excited.
07:17 Always welcome.
07:19 And of course, you know here in Unang Hirit,
07:21 Fun, fun, fun,
07:23 Friday!
07:25 We always have a song here.
