coming back to Busan, South Korea to represent our country PHILIPPINES🇵🇭 again at The #AsiaSongFestival2018 has been such a huge honor!! 감사합니다 to the whole Asia Song Festival group for having me back this year; at sa suporta po ng aking mga kababayan at kaibigan, salamat po! being given this opportunity to do this for the 2nd time in a row, I admit it was a challenge to follow last year’s performance.. so like I said in my spiel in between songs, we thought of doing something different this time around. I am so happy to have finally shared one of my original Filipino tracks #Throwback with our Korean audience (woohoo @iamkikosalazar @kztandingan). and it was my #HelloKIdol co-mentor and friend (oha hahaha) @_jinhobae who suggested I sing the Korean song #Resignation by Lee Young Hyun; with our own twist, we decided to translate that powerhouse song to English.. thanks to Kuya @adonistabanda & Kuya @malambeng25 for the polishing and big help. and it was only during the flight to Korea that I’ve decided to keep and do the original korean lyrics at the end, thanks to our translator @sean.sational for helping with the right pronunciation.. it wasn’t perfect but I hope I didn’t disappoint you guys. grateful also and always to my team for literally being there, supportive and strong. to God be the glory! mabuhaaaay 💎💕✨ ©️

“Let your light shine before others.” . . (Matt. 5:16) – Nakakaiyak lang isipin na dati pinapangarap ko lang ang nararamdaman kong to. Yung tipong pag iniisip mo sya kay hirap na abutin pero minsan pala pag pinabayaan mo lang at marunong maghintay sa tamang panahon kung para sayo talaga ibibigay sayo. Shempre sa likod ng natamo ko sa lahat ng to pinapasalamatan ko ang Panginoon, sa mga taong naging dahilan at tulay ng aking tagumpay Ms. @furneamato Sir @josh_yugen Entrata& Barcelona Family @entratalorna @vincentdal3 @edward_barber @cntpatricia_ @nik.gonzales @lauraanika tita Cathy Tito Kevs @pbbabscbntv Family, @starmagicphils Fam, @starcinema Fam, @dreamscapeph Fam, Team May & Ed Fam, Mayward Family at sa lahat ng sumuporta at nag bigay puri maraming maraming salamat po dahil sa inyong lahat mas naging matatag ako at pumiling lumaban upang lakarin ang daan patungo sa pangarap.

When I was 13, my mum told me "Honey, I dreamt of you winning @missuniverse in a red dress." At that time I thought nothing of it, and today my mother's dream came true. ✨ Where do I even begin? Lord God, I lift everything up to you – to glorify and honour you. 🙏 Philippines 🇵🇭 what an amazing honor it has been to carry your name across my chest and to embody you in all aspects.
