From the different kinds of Philippine Popular Culture rising today, I can't deny but have my favorites. With the influence of media especially social media such as TikTok and YouTube as well as my friends, I've come up a list with five Philippine popular culture I am interested in. These are OPM, KDrama, KPop, Social Media Influencers, and Teleseryes. KDrama and KPop may be a Korean genre but we all can't deny how insanely famous these Koreans are here in the Philippines. I have tons of favorite KDramas that I would not get tired of talking. I'm also into BINI right now but I also used to listen to OPM artists wayback especially Darren Espanto. My favorite social media influencer would always be my YT girlies, Ry and Claudine! Lastly, are you a Filipino if you don't watch teleseryes? Even if I don't watch TV anymore, I still get hooked up in the latest ABS-CBN teleseryes uploaded in YouTube. These are some of the things that keeps me going and keeps my Filipino blood alive.

The five Philippine Pop Cultures I have mentioned all have significance to me. Although, we really can't help but have our favorites. The Social Media Influencers especially Claudine are the top tier. You might ask why? Well, I aspire to be like them. People might often say that they're showing off their lavish lifestyles and such but for me, I don't get jealous or insecure instead I make it as a motivation. It's also an additional factor that these girls have great personalities. To be honest, I got to the point where I was tired of watching vlogs but these girls made me stay. Nothing changes just getting better and I love how they don't pressure themselves to make and upload videos, they just do it in their own pace. Also, they're great influencers. They're so vocal with their stands in issues surfacing nowadays. They teach the younger generations the right way and I am proud that I have stan the right influencers.

Social Media Influencers are prevalent nowadays. We often see them on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, X, and YouTube. Most vloggers have their own niches like cooking, lifestyle, make-up, exercise, mukbangs, etc. From the influencers I have mentioned, you can already tell that lifestyle videos are my thing. Claudine and Ry showcase daily vlogs, Janina uses her platform to talk about societal issues, while Hannah shares encouraging and motivational words. They all have a specific thing they share as an influencer and this is what media consumers like. According to the Uses and Gratification Theory or UGT, people use media for their own and they get satisfied when this need is fulfilled. Just like me, a media consumer, I want to be motivated which is why I watched influencers like Claudine.

The Uses and Gratification Theory has two principles. It characterizes that people consume media actively, they are aware of and engage with this choice they made. Second, they are aware of the reason for selecting this choice. This specific theory creates a change in how people behave nowadays. A young adult like me is motivated to become better and be like the influencers I watch. I engage with different positive thinking, study habits, healthy eating habits, and such. I do what they do because I know that I need it and it satisfies me by the time I'll reach this goal. These social media influencers greatly influenced me and I am thankful that it did positively. I am more knowledgeable about the issues not just in our country but across the globe. I am now more sensitive to what I say. I am now more careful and conscious of what I think and eat. This form of Philippine Popular Culture has shaped me into the person I really wanted to be.
