I enjoy watching teleseryes like Kadenang Ginto, which have made a big impact on local entertainment and sparked a lot of discussions. OPM is also a favorite of mine—artists like Cup of Joe, Moira Dela Torre, and Maki create songs that mix traditional and modern sounds, making them really relatable. I also find Filipino street food and mukbang culture interesting—there’s something fun about watching people enjoy classic favorites like isaw, balut, and kwek-kwek in vlogs. P-pop is another thing I’m into, especially groups like SB19, BINI, and BGYO, who are bringing Filipino music to a global audience. And of course, I keep up with Filipino internet and meme culture—expressions like “Sobrang Latina!” “Angas,” and “Sarap” always pop up in online humor and conversations.
