Kim Chiu, BGYO help Cebuano fans beat the heat

- —Januar Junior Aguja

Fans of Kim Chiu, the KimPau tandem, as well as those of BGYO (who call themselves ACEs) gathered at the City Wing of SM Seaside City to meet the Chinita Princess and ABS-CBN's P-pop boy group during Chowking's Halo-Halo Supreme event on March 17.

Cebuano ACEs cheered for the five-member group consisting of Gelo, Akira, JL, Mikki, and Nate as they performed their hits “Sabay” and “Patintero” with their perfectly synced choreograp­hy.

The guys then participat­ed in a few games with some influencer­s including TikTok’s Cebuano comedian Zeke Abella. He, Mikki, and Nate won a memorytest­ing game that had them stacking cups labeled with halohalo ingredient­s that matched the sequence shown on screen.

Meanwhile, Kim performed her renditions of Meghan Trainor’s “Better

When I’m Dancin’” and Karencitta’s “Cebuana” -displaying how she still has that “it” factor even years after her 2006 showbiz debut as winner of “Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition.”

The Cebuana star also interacted with KimPau fans in the crowd and gave away her custom-made halo-halo to one fan.

Kim’s appearance wouldn’t be complete without promoting her current projects such as “Linlang” airing on TV5, Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, and A2Z. She jokingly asked her fans in Cebuano not to pull her hair over the actions of her controvers­ial character Juliana.

She also promoted her latest digital series “What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim?”, which again has her co-starring “Linlang” actor Paulo Avelino. KimPau’s latest online teleserye is the Filipino adaptation of the popular K-drama of the same name that starred Park Seo-joon and Park Min-young.
