ONLY YOU ... A WORLD CLASS PROMETIMEBIDA TELESERYE

The Pinoy adaptation of the hit Koreonovela Only You proved to be a huge success as it became one of the top Kapamilya primetime shows on its first week of airing. Even its lead stars Angel Locsin, Diether Ocampo, and Sam Milby admitted that they were really overwhelmed with the viewers' all-out support to their first project together. "Nakakagulat yung pagtangkilik nila sa amin nila Diet and Sam kasi hindi pa naman talaga kami nagiging love team before. Hindi rin kami nabigyan ng pagkakataon na ma-establish yung team-up bago namin ginawa yung show. At sa Only You, hindi rin namin inexpect na malakas yung chemistry namin tatlo kaya mas napadali yung trabaho namin," said Angel in an interview with ABS-CBN.com.

With the way things are going right now, Diether claimed that he felt all the more inspired to work harder in giving their avid followers something good to look forward to every night. "Yeah, it's a big revelation for everyone dahil siyempre katulad ng sinabi ni Angel, first time namin magkasama at naging maganda naman yung resulta ng aming pagtatambal. Kaya excited rin kami na gumawa ng mas maraming proyekto together. For now, I am prety sure that our ratings will still gonna go up dahil siyempre naa-appreciate ng mga tao yung ginawa namin," he related.

Sam on the other hand pointed out that it helps that they enjoyed working with each other and were able to bond as a group during their recent trip to Korea where the conflicts in the story began. "It was fun siyempre kasi there are times na maaga kami matapos mag-taping so we were able to go out to dinner, mga ganun, shopping, and grabe ang sarap ng Korean food! Talagang nakapag-bonding kami, yun yung importante. First week pa lang we bonded really well na. I think it's a lot easier dahil its a light drama din. Tsaka maganda yung mga locations, super."

As it happens, the only moment he felt a little awkward was when he and Angel were taping their sensuous love scene which aired last Friday. "That was shot in the boarding house. Aside from NamiIsland, it's one of my favorite places there in Korea kasi it was so cold and there was just a mattress sa sahig na may heater. Actually, wala, it's a simple naman na love scene. At first, si Angel mukhang uncomfortable siya kaya nahawa rin ako kasi parang bakit uncomfortable siya? But it was fine afterwards. Nagawa naman namin yun hinihingi ng eksena and parang movie talaga yung treatment na ginawa dun ni Direk Rory Quintos," he explained.
