“Lahat kami are helping each other on how to deliver lines and enunciate the words. We are like a family. We help each other and everybody is having fun,” he said.
Matsunaga said Filipinos can relate to the story as it involves a foreign national (played by Matsunaga) coming over the Philippines.
“For sure maraming Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) ang magiging inspired kasi maganda ang story. All comments that we received about the teleserye are positive,” he added.
