Ian holds early Father’s Day roadshow

-

The heavy downpour didn’t stop enthusiast­ic fans from trooping to Eton Centris Walk in Quezon City last June 8. Not when veteran actor and ASCOF brand ambassador Ian Veneracion was slated to perform at an early Father’s Day roadshow mounted by the leading natural cough remedy ASCOF Lagundi and hit FM radio station Wish 107.5.

While awaiting Ian’s guest appearance at 7 p.m., members of the audience who showed up at the venue as early as 4 p.m. participat­ed in assorted games and surprises prepared by ASCOF Forte Menthol Syrup and Wish 107.5. These included Wish’s free videoke caravan where fans took turns doing covers of their favorite songs and ASCOF’s Who’s

Your Cough Character video booth. Inspired by ASCOF’s viral digital ad, the video booth had participan­ts acting out the most imaginativ­e portrayal of their “Cough Character” — or how they would cough while role-playing as “The Maldita,” “Ang Inaapi,” “The Social Media Savvy” and “The Beauty Queen,” among others. Three lucky participan­ts also got the chance to meet and greet Ian right inside the Wish 107.5 Bus.

At his guest gig, Ian and his 17-yearold daughter Deirdre gave a special performanc­e of the song When Nights Are Longer. When DJs asked the father-and-daughter tandem how they spend quality time together, Ian revealed that he and his children usually bond over music or adventure sports like paraglidin­g.

“When ASCOF offered me the chance to endorse it, I told myself, ‘Perfect! After all, it’s something that I personally use,” Ian said. “I bring it with me most of the time and I take it at once when I have cough, especially during shootings and tapings. I trust ASCOF Forte Menthol Syrup because it’s made from 100 percent organicall­y grown Lagundi leaves, making it safe and effective.”
