TFC Brought The First Ever One Kapamilya Go 2016 to Korea

On April 10, 2016, One Kapamilya Go brought three Kapamilya stars to South Korea to entertain the Filipino migrants living and working in the country. Through ABS-CBN International’s The Filipino Channel (TFC), three of the best artists of this generation Rayver Cruz, Maja Salvador and KZ Tandingan performed at the Tong Seong High School Auditorium in Hyewa-dong, Seoul, South Korea.

As many as 1400 people flocked to the venue to watch the concert with the participation of MOR 101.9 DJ Chacha. The Filipino fans that came from different parts of South Korea were serenaded by the X Factor Grand winner KZ Tandingan with the love songs including her hit single “Mahal ko o Mahal ako”. Meanwhile, Maja and Rayver set the stage into a dance floor as they entertained the audience with their sizzling hot dance performance.

The Kapamilya stars with the press

The three artists were thankful to the TFC for the opportunity to come to Korea and perform in front of the Filipino crowd.

“Nakakatuwa kasi dumadami na rin ang mga Pilipino dito sa Korea at nakita namin na naging masaya naman sila sa concert. Nagpapasalamat kami sa TCF kasi through TFC, we were able to visit and entertain people here in Korea.” – Rayver Cruz

Aside from performing on stage, the three Kapamilya stars also gave special messages to the OFWs in South Korea during the press conference.

Rayver Cruz Gives Advice to Working Filipino Men in Korea.

The dance royalty Rayver Cruz expressed his respect to the Filipino men in South Korea who sacrificed a lot for their respective families. He urged the men to continue the good deeds that they have started for their loved ones

“Ipagpatuloy lang ang ginagawa kasi for sure ginagawa naman nila yan sa mahal nila sa buhay. More blessings sa ginagawa nilang work kasi pag masipag naman malalagay tayo sa maayos na kalagayan.” , Rayver said in an interview.

KZ Tandingan to struggling EPS workers: “Lapan Pa!”

Meanwhile, the Soul Supreme Idol KZ Tandingan can relate to those who are struggling in their work. Just like them, she also experienced the struggles of going up to become a successful singer. She gave advice to OFWs in South Korea who are struggling and on the verge of quitting
.

“Siguro everytime mafefeel na pagod at mag give up, balikan ang reason bakit sila nandito which is to give better life sa pamilya.”, said the X Factor Philippines champion.

She also salutes the hard working Filipinos in South Korea for the sacrifices they make just to provide for the family.

“Sobrang taas ng respeto ko sa mga OFWs kasi mahirap na nga magtrabaho, mas mahirap yong magtrabaho ng wala kang kasamang pamilya.”, she added

KZ also dedicated her latest single to the struggling EPS workers in South Korea
.

“Sabi nga sa kanta ko, Laban Pa!.. kasi hangga’t meron ka pang pwedeng gawin, meron ka pang pag asa na gaganda ang buhay. Yong ginagawa nyo dito is very honorable kasi lahat ng hirap nilulunok nyo para may maipadala sa family.”

As for the confused EPS workers whether to choose a company they love or choose a company that loves them, this is her advice:

“piliin natin ang company na mahal tayo para mayron tayong makuha, kasi pag pinilit naman natin ang sarili sa company na hindi tayo gusto, hindi naman tayo kikita doon.

Maja Salvador on spending the hard earned money: “Dahan dahan lang”

Her MAJAsty on the other hand dedicated her song “Dahan dahan lang” to remind Filipino people not only in Korea but all around the globe to spend the hard earned money wisely. In the midst of the “Pali-pali” (hurry) challenge faced by OFWs in South Korea, Maja said that they must go slow on spending their salary.

“Pag first time mo makahawak ng malaking pera, parang hindi mo mahahandle ng tama. At the end of the day, kelangan mo pa rin isipin na hindi mo alam kung hanggang kelan ka sa trabaho. Dapat lagging handa, dapat laging may ipon.”, Maja said in an interview

The singer-actress also shared her own savings technique that OFWs can also adapt.

“Ako, as part of my new year’s resolution, may savings ako for travel, savings for shopping and savings for rainy days. So ganun, you need to budget all your sweldo. Hindi masama na regaluhan nyo ang sarili nyo. “

She’s also thankful for the opportunity to entertain the Filipinos in South Korea. She urged everyone to take care of their health and finances.

“Alagaan mo ang sarili mo para maalagaan nyo rin ang pamilya nyo.”, said Maja Salvador.
