...Kasama si Glaiza [de Castro] sa cast ng Batanes, na showing sa December 5 at inisip din nitong suplado si Ken Chu dahil seryoso at nahiya siyang kausapin.

Ang una niyang sinabi’y “I used to watch Meteor Garden before” hanggang hindi na lang ang Chinovela ang kanilang usapan.

“Kanta siya nang kanta at laging nagpapatugtog ng jazz, rock at old songs. He hates pop daw. Cool daw ang OPM songs na pinarinig namin sa iPod ni Bembol Roco, songs ng Hotdog, Juan dela Cruz Band at ibang band. Hindi siya mapili sa food, parang hindi Asian superstar.”

KEN CHU......HEART AND SOUL:)

Ken Chu FLIX Exclusive interview
It starts with a new challenge in 2006.

Chu's Delicious Relations" was finished. There was a photography session with Ken in the area near the lake. Development in this are is the most advanced in the Taipei urban area. The interiors are high ceilinged with Gothic types. Light pours down from a big glass window. Was it a bar or a restaurant before? The atmosphere of the studio is classic. An exotic, calm, mysterious atmosphere is suitable for Ken. Jazz music by a Japanese musician which Ken selected flows. It is excellent produce for a Japanese staff that came all the way to Taiwan. "Ken Chu's Delicious Relations" is your own book. Everyone knows, the favor of the dish.

Were there any problems during the making this book and are there new revelations?

Ken: Since my debut this is now my eighth year. I wanted to make something that remained in peoples’ memory as a commemoration. This is also my way of informing my fans my activities. Therefore, it is not especially serious. My day-to-day living is the content of the book it is as it is, and it reported to everyone. I began making it around February or March of last year. It took less than a year to complete it. I wanted to make it slowly spending time with it because it was really an important book for me. The production of the book enabled me to look at my past, the challenges that I placed on myself, testing myself was accomplished, and a new argument thought was formed. I was able to feel refreshed while making the book.

When Vic lived close by, were you able to prepare a meal for him?

Ken: I was able to prepare a meal for him before. But those chances decreased two years back. He would occasionally eat instant noodles. I uttered these words first and invited him. "It is not good for the body. Let's eat together in my house. " Though it is introduced in the recipe book. The dishes that I make are not special and not difficult. These are just home-cooked meals that can be eaten anywhere in Taiwan. It is a simple menu that gives thought to the body and health. Therefore, the dish I made for Vic is easy as the noodles and rice ball but he said, "Wonderful! Anything can be made." I was certainly pleased.

Did you write in your book the favorite dish of Vic?

Ken: "Fried Pork and Carrot" etc. There are 4 or 5 kinds, which he likes but I can’t recall them now. However, he always eats two servings of rice even when he is already full. He always gets a second helping of the meal, which I cooked. Originally, if a lot of it is not eaten. It remains in my impression.

Have the other members eaten your cooking?

Ken: Unfortunately only Vic has tried it. There wasn’t any chance. The preferences in life style and of each meal varies. Jerry seems to be fond of eating meals that his family prepared. Van Ness grew up in the United States. He likes European style dishes more than Chinese cuisine. Vic is the youngest. Because it seemed that he doesn’t know much about eating habits, he is easier to manage, I was not deserted. (laugh) But I seem better in managing my eating habits now. The reason is because he doesn't come to my house to eat meals.

Ken was the most important actor mentioned in the Chinese movie "Far East International Big Trial" it is one of his more important works last year. The film is about war crimes done after World War II. It becomes a historical masterpiece that depicts the Far Eastern Military trial of Japan. In the movie Ken performs as "Xiao Nan" a journalist from the newspaper "Da Gong Bao" of China. He is pursuing reports on "Far East International Great Trial. "Xiao Nan" is Ken, he meets a Japanese woman, a childhood friend who is also a journalist from the "Early Morning News" a newspaper from Japan then he falls in love with her.

Played the part of a man who fell in love with a Japanese woman.

Ken: My role is that of a journalist from a newspaper who fell in love with "Lin Xi Lei" she acted as the Japanese woman.

Please tell us an episode that happened while doing the film. What was the feeling at the movie set?
Ken: This is a movie from history that treats a serious theme. Therefore, the actors and all of the staff worked seriously; so as not to destroy its historical background, close attention to detail was done. I think that rash criticism and jokes in this movie is not related. Most especially in a serious movie the actor appears to act the usual attitude, the remark, and the idea. Therefore, I myself had to be managed. Putting in my thoughts that I am facing the same situation is natural and necessary. It is certainly possible for the performers and the staff to be united in having the same feelings during the movie production. It is also possible to co-star with a senior actor who has an acting experience of 20-25 years. The person who had been doing the acting for 50 years from the age of the film in monochrome is also on this film. It was my pleasure to meet and experience working with big senior stars and to have worked with them. Recalling the movie now, the set overflowed with tension. Joking was impossible in that kind of an atmosphere. <smile>

JUDAY's loss is IZA's gain

May bagong leading man si Iza Calzado sa pelikulang Batanes mula sa Ignite at GMA-7 Films - si Ken Chu, miyembro ng boyband na F4 at star ng Meteor Garden. Ni hindi batid ni Iza na popular na Taiwanese star si Ken na mabuti at marunong magsalita ng Ingles.

Siya ang misteryosong lalaking napadpad sa Batanes, a Taiwanese fisherman na natutunang mahalin ni Iza. Ang Batanes ay naiibang love story at hindi special feature na angkop para sa National Geographic Channel.

Bakit sa Batanes kinailangang mag-shoot? Sobrang picturesque ang lugar at ang dagat ay puwedeng ikumpara sa mga best beaches in the world. Mahalaga ang papel ng karagatan sa parang sumpa sa buhay ng karakter na ginagampanan ni Iza.

Si Judy Ann Santos ang unang choice for the female lead at naibigan niya ang role. Unfortunately, may previous commitment na si Juday kung kaya't inirekomenda niya sa producer na babagay din ito kay Iza.

Dahil isang love story ang Batanes, tiyak ang love scenes nina Iza at Ken, one thing na kinasasabikang mapanood ng lahat.

Ken takes care of his meal representation together with his physical condition and general well being. Since his debut seven years ago his high style living had to be stopped, observed and healed. It is said that a moderate amount of activity will be always considered with a regular lifestyle because he has recently adjusted his amount of workload. A slow life and slow food are practiced. Therefore it gives an impression that his face is resolute and you can feel the strained muscles from his clothing.


What do you do on holidays?

Ken: My day starts at 10 o'clock or 10:30, the day is first started with a leisurely breakfast in the morning. After that, I do my daily yoga exercises with that done and the housework finished. I work out a sweat at the sports club in the afternoon. I also jog. I prepare dinner for myself then I sleep early at night. The “early to bed and early to rise” lifestyle was recently practiced.

What future activity are you most anxious about? What age are you going to be this year?

Ken: I want to be healthy and take care of my body more and more. I want to work slowly following my work pattern last year.

Is there a chance to see you in Japan?

Ken: I want to go by all means if the opportunity comes, but this also a chance. <smile>. If there is a chance and it goes well to have some sort of cooperation in Japan, there are talks; that’s the best. But nothing is for sure. I don’t want to expect much from it. It is not possible to make an excuse when it’s going to be a disappointment. But thank you to all the fans in Japan. I am glad to hear that a lot of people are looking out for my future works. I am always surprised at the high quality of each field and work attitude in Japan. Therefore the desire to get over the language barrier and wanting to make something with the Japanese actors and staff is strong. I hope it can be realized one day.

Mr. Naoki Kimura is really the cameraman that dealt with "F4@Tokyo." When he appeared, the delight in Ken’s face as clear as the sun was vivid. The both love cats, like cameras and biking. They got along really well during the photography session of the book and instantly became friends. He was able to meet Mr. Kimura again after a long time. Ken approached him at once, with love, patted his back and held his shoulder. Words are not needed for them. Mr. Kimura says, “As for taking the picture of a friend I become shameful.” Ken replied, “Why is Mr. Kimura ashamed when I am not ashamed?” <laugh> He makes fun of him and the surroundings are in harmony. Actually, Ken’s feelings have gone somewhere during the course of the interview. Ken’s thoughts were, “What will I eat with Mr. Kimura? What restaurant is good? “ These were his only thoughts. At the end of our interview I requested Ken, “Will you sign this book and dedicate it to the reader.” “Oh, You bought? Thank you! His whole face was filled with a smile. “Happy New Year” Ken wrote. I thought that this word signaled this new years luck.

BATANES ON THE BIG SCREEN

AS PROOF OF BATANES' beauty, Adolf Alix ang Ignite Media Inc, CEO Dave Hukom recently shot a full-length feature film aptly called "Batanes" - a first for the company, with the island as one of its "characters."

Exclusive Paradise

Written by Arah Badayos, the film is a love story between a Filipina and a Taiwanese and revolves around how the waters of Batanes test their love and individualities.

The "unpredictable weather or ocean is similar to a woman," said Alix, adding that people should watch the movie to see how this "man-versus-nature" relationship unravels.

Hukom pointed out that the majestic beauty of Batanes lies in its green fields and the vast ocean that surround it. Seemingly nurtured and tended to by some divine force, the emerald island doesn't seem to have a bald patch.

"Batanes" the film, which stars Ken Zhu of Taiwanese boyband F4 fame and actress Iza Calzado, promises not only to highlight the island's beauty, but also share a tale about how love can overcome language barriers and cultural differences.

Both Hukom and Alix praised the Ivatan people for their simplicity, kindness and honesty- virtues that will be celebrated on the big screen soon.

"Batanes" will be shown in SM, Ayala and Robinsons cinemas starting Dec. 5.

Iza in Batanes
Article posted November 26, 2007

After conquering Hollywood in The Echo, the lovely Iza Calzado goes back home for a more provincial role in the much talked about film, Batanes: Ang Pag-Ibig ay Walang Hangganan. Text by KC M. Abalos. Photos by Ignite Media.

Next only to Richard Gutierrez, Iza Calzado is the second talent to sign an exclusive contract under GMA Films. And, she has delivered blockbuster hits each and every time she was given a project.

Annette Gozon-Abrogar, GMA Films President, only has good words to say about Iza.

“Her talent has not gone unnoticed-- not only in the country but internationally as well.”

http://www2.igma.tv/igmaweb/webpics/insides/stars/iza_calzado_05a1b.jpg

This was a keen observation. Because after the success of Moments of Love and Ouija, Iza did conquer the international scene with the Hollywood version of Sigaw, entitled, The Echo. It was in Sigaw where she won her first Urian for Best Supporting Actress.

Is it difficult to work with people from different cultures?

“Iyung kinakatakutan ko na baka sabihin nila na, who’s this girl? This Asian girl, Filipino, ganyan… wala. Ni-respeto nila ako. Kasi siguro pinakita ko na nirerespeto ko rin sila, pinapahalagan ko iyung trabaho ko more than anything” shared the beautiful actress.

Impressed? That is not all. Just when we thought there is nothing more she could possibly do to make us admire her more, she stars in Batanes: Ang Pag-ibig ay Walang Hangganan
http://www2.igma.tv/igmaweb/webpics/insides/stars/iza_calzado_05a1a.jpg

Meet Pam and her Men

starsIza’s character, Pam, gets caught in a whirlwind romance with Ivatan native Rico, played by Joem Bascon. She decides to give up her urban lifestyle for a quieter, more sedate life in the islands.


She describes working with Joem, whom she met for the first time on location in Batanes. “Tahimik! Sabi ko sa kanya, uy, kausapin mo naman ako!”

Later on, Pam meets Kao, played by Asian Superstar, Ken Chu.. Thus begins another part of the tale better left for when the movie is shown on December 5. However, Iza tells iGMA about her working relationship with the F4 member.

“Super fun! Nice guy. We’re buddies. I was never a fan. It’s good though. Feeling ko kung fan niya ako baka ‘di ako makapagsalita. It’s so nice working with him.”

Witness how close Iza really gets with Joem and Ken when Batanes is shown in movie theaters on December 5, with a premiere night on December 4.

helo a_irene12....pr3tchie..... Hi angeldream! Hello Keniacs! thanks sa lahat ng updates keniacs!! Soobrang busy ang mga keniacs these days till dumating at umalis c Ken sa dec 6. Dont forget to share the picc/vids na makukuha nya dears. For sure id be stuck in my PC this coming week saving all the epektos!

nku Ken pwede nmn Tai Chi teacher part time actor/singer.. Sana may magisip ng movie story line about Tai Chi Hero (meron ba nun? hahaha) para di maisipan ni Ken n magretire agad... kelangan p nya magrelease ng albums, gumawa ng more movies & series... wag muna

Iba tlaga ang influence ni Uncle Bembol kay Ken! pati mga 70's OPM nagustuhan nya, sabagay magaling nmn tlga ang mga pinoy sa musik. Im sure napabilib c Ken sa range ng music industry natin base on the songs he heard from his castmates. About what he will sing in SOP or sa Fans Day, i think inside my guitar will be one of them. Syempre ipapakita ni Ken ang kanyang talent singing English songs plus di lahat ng viewers ma-aapreciate kung Mandarin song ang kantahin nya, although for sure ang lahat ng Keniacs present would sing along...Maybe he could sing the kind of songs he did during his Japan concert, mostly English contemporary songs na familiar ang mga pinoys.

Daily Insider

ISANG araw ng cancelations ang nangyari dahil sa tatlong bagyo.

Cancelled ang flight papuntang Batanes last Tuesday night pa lang, so hindi nakalipad ang invited press early Wednesday morning for a special preview na gagawin sana roon for the Ignite Media and GMA Films’ Batanes starring Iza Calzado and F4 member Ken Chu with Glaiza de Castro, Mike Tan, Coco Martin and Joem Bascon from the direction of Adolfo B. Alix Jr.

Ang tagal na pinagplanuhan ito ng Ignite and GMA kung kaya sayang ang efforts. But then, who would have thought na hindi lang isa o dalawa kundi tatlong bagyo ang sasalakay sa bansa particularly sa Batanes on the scheduled date.

Hindi bale, may premiere pa rin naman ang movie sa Metro Manila particularly sa Trinoma yata, so all those who were raring to visit the northernmost island can still see it.

Sa movie na nga lang when it opens on Dec. 5.

GLAIZA ON KEN

NAG-I-EFFORT si Glaiza de Castro na baguhin ang hitsura para hindi na masabihang kamukha siya ni Angel Locsin.

Sa kagustuhang magkaroon ng sariling identity, binago niya ang hairstyle at naglagay ng bangs.

Iniba na rin niya ang make-up at pinalalaki ang mga mata para maiba sa may pagka-singkit na mga mata ng actress.

Tagumpay daw siya sa mga ginawa’t lately, wala nang nagku-comment na hawig siya kay Angel.

Kasama si Glaiza sa cast ng Batanes, na showing sa December 5 at inisip din nitong suplado si Ken Chu dahil seryoso at nahiya siyang kausapin.

Ang una niyang sinabi’y “I used to watch Meteor Garden before” hanggang hindi na lang ang Chinovela ang kanilang usapan.

“Kanta siya nang kanta at laging nagpapatugtog ng jazz, rock at old songs. He hates pop daw. Cool daw ang OPM songs na pinarinig namin sa iPod ni Bembol Roco, songs ng Hotdog, Juan dela Cruz Band at ibang band. Hindi siya mapili sa food, parang hindi Asian superstar.”

Samantala, si Glaiza ang first endorser ng Facial Plus, ang bagong bukas na skin care clinic.

For one year, mukha niya ang makikita sa kanilang posters, banners, brochures at promo materials at may billboard sa EDSA.

Happy ito sa bago niyang endorsement dahil may nagtiwala na naman sa kanya

KEN CHU.......HEART AND SOUL:)


Forthright, sincere yet mature, independent minded that is Ken.

Because of work related matters, I must constantly gather material that is different from a trade person. Preparing for work assignments is for me a basic requirement. Preparing for the interview with Ken Chu is both simple and difficult. Simple, because of the abundant information available on the Internet. Hard, because he is involved with a lot of things, drama, singing, endorsements, acting, fashion modeling, sound recording performance etc. in addition to that his recently published book, material gathering turned out to be time consuming. What’s more I was terrified and restless, Internet news on this one person can always be untrue and very hard to separate from fact, also it’s hard to make new material about him. I always hated this; also filtering information is a waste of time and effort.

I found a way, a colleague of mine interviewed Ken last year. At that time Ken released his first solo album “On Ken’s Time. With the aim of popularizing his music, I didn’t realize that he was extremely good in expressing his opinions as a result talking with him took up a lot of time. Broadcast time for his songs can be limited, PR staff of his record company can anxiously stamp his foot, he however can look calm and say, “It doesn’t matter.” Colleague would say, “He is a forthright and sincere person,” this made me feel a little at ease because he is a little scared of interviews a “tai you” person.

Tai you = flattery

(by: Wu Ruo Quan
Mr. Wu is a very respected author in Taiwan)

Gathering material that very day, he arrived ahead of schedule, holding in his hand the book “ Book of Changes.” It immediately verified my impressions about his background “he is an old head on young shoulders, not yet 30, constantly saying that his mental age is middle age. I did not think of his as being unconventional, because he was separated early from his family members, on his own as a child he entered the work society; this is most likely the reason for his special quality.

KEN CHU..........HEART AND SOUL:)


Unsociable, eccentric personality, kind, considerate, peacefully in harmony.

During the interview, he not only once mentioned about his personality, “unsociable and eccentric” but in my eyes he is extremely easy to get along with. But the basic premise is you must first accept his simple yet agile style.

While I was hosting the program “Dai Ke Zhi Dao” during the break in the interview it would be routine for us to broadcast his songs, After we broadcast one of his songs, he waved his hand and said, "I hardly listen to it since its launch. How about picking some old songs instead? I have not had a lot of opportunity to listen to these old songs, we can choose an old song.” He picked an English song by the Beatles an old song “All You Need Is Love” then finally an old folk song by Zheng Yi, “Rainfall on the Right Time.”

“Unsociable and eccentric character” but “kind and considerate” it seems two kinds of temperament can be found in him it is as far as the sky and the earth but at the same time the character of Ken Chu emerges from it. To a certain extent I can also say that about myself. When the interviewing was coming to an end, he asked, “Elder Brother Wu, What constellation are you?” I said, “Aquarius.” He said, “Oh, Aquarius and Capricorn is very close to each other.” It let’s me recall that during the interview the first caller said, “It seems you and I are alike. Ken and I are both Capricorns.”

KEN CHU.....HEART AND SOUL:)


At ease with one's life, following nature's taste.

Cooking for me, is a way to spend time, it is also life's enjoyment. Because I like it, so from the beginning I don't consider it bothersome. And since I'm happy doing it, I can always do it again and again trying every kind of dish.

When Chinese people cook, they have this particular kind of mentality, they want each outcome different, and so they put to use the best methods, thus making it complicated. Of , Chinese knowledge of cooking come from studying, from the ingredients, mixing of flavors, tools and equipment to measuring the time of cooking, each procedure is essential, there is no shortcut.

For me I would also like to do this way. Of course, I wish I can cook in this manner and come up with a delicious dish, but I have a more relaxed way of doing things.

Cooking is actually like drawing a picture or singing a song, these things are all the same, you need some natural talent and a little , but after some experience each can person can develop his own style. With regards to cooking and the degree of ability you need in order to measure up to a standard, I feel otherwise. You don’t need to reach a certain standard. On my own, I am happy. I don’t need to compare myself with other people.
Actually, I like cooking on my own, because I often am not happy eating unpalatable food, but there are times I still find myself comparing it with others. Since I am alone most of the time, cooking turned out to be more convenient, even if occasionally a friend would drop by, cooking for two or three people can easily be managed. Being alone is lonely, but I want to watch television and at the same time be near the food, so I buy take out, that feeling is even more lonesome.

Whipping up a dish, from washing, cooking the ingredients, washing a small bowl to a big one takes about two hours. If you enjoy this process, a day can quickly pass by with you being very happy.

KEN CHU......HEART AND SOUL:)

Ken Chu's first rule on taste.

You have two choices, one is continue to indulge in film prince F4’s Ken Chu, and another is not to accept his not so much [idol] behavior, and follow him.

After having his popularity explode then sink down, the rebirth of Ken Chu can not be thought of as a necessity, even if you persist on it, or how much his fan’s wants to know about it, Ken is bent on guarding himself.

“Falling in love with someone can happen anytime, there is no such thing as an everlasting and unchanging love but enjoying it at the moment, on the contrary finding a mate is not so simple, it’s getting harder and harder.

Ken Chu is a man who relies on feeling, location shoot is a tapas bar and restaurant. Ken entered the door his eyes took notice of the Ballentine’s double whisky, immediately orders a glass of double whisky, and then proceeds with the interview. The waiter gave him a third glass then a fourth, this 27-year-old idol; perhaps because of the effects of alcohol, his sense of right or wrong, it would seem his actions are uncalled for.


Although it is still early in the day, he already drinks whisky, other people seem to be taken aback over this behavior, then Ken started to explain the process of making whisky. He explained what a single malt is. Speaking about his liquor capacity, “ I can only be drunk if I want to get drunk.” He smiles and says, “I once worked in a Japanese restaurant, but could only save guests left over drink, opening the family’s wine cabinet, it will certainly have a bottle of good qin liquor, red wine, whisky, “usually in the kitchen I would drink a glass of red wine, after the ingredients are completed, and just a tiny bit drunk, the feeling would be very good, everything is just perfect.

KEN CHU......HEART AND SOUL:)

Being a straightforward person, Ken had some difficulties in the entertainment world unable to express what he wanted to say. “My personality does not fit the entertainment circle, seeing that it is unfair I have to speak out from a sense of justice, unable to change my personality it made me suffer some setbacks. People caused trouble either in secret or openly.” “Choosing the opportune time to speak needs careful study, but being unable to speak out was so painful for me, but if I persist and demand, a lot of people can’t look at you naturally. According to, Hou Hei Xue, Tibetan Life book, success in finding life is to be detached from it. He said, “ Being an artist is a lifetime thing, even if one day I am not able to manage, there can still be a person who can come out and recognize you. It is like you are aboard a ship you want to go down but you can’t, you want to slowly drive the pirate ship, then you discover a mistake you can’t jump out of the boat, you can only resolve the crisis on your own while on the boat.

He admits that before the age of 20 he didn’t have a predestined relationship with girls, couldn’t talk, once he opens his mouth it was like splashing cold water to the other person, later he experienced running into a person and telling himself, if he finds that person he could set off his romantic hidden ability, he told himself that even without an occasion or gift he can make it romantic, he can also reveal his self confidence. Romance doesn’t have anything to do with the place; it depends upon the approach. For as long as you like to be with the girl, even if you eat oyster or noodle on the stalls by the roadside, then you can see the Yang Ming mountains and look at the night view, that is very romantic.” “ You need to draw it from yourself, stand opposite to her try to imagine, imagine what she wants to hear, what food she wants to eat, add to that make some oblique references. In case you truly like this girl, every move or act should be clear that is the key, if the man doesn’t know, then he should just give up, act as if its just an infatuation. As for talking you don’t need to use to many words, so that you won’t easily be snubbed, falling in love doesn’t need to be too rigid.

From the Basque region to Batanes

F4’s Ken Zhu shoots a movie in Batanes
By Cherry Pineda

Ken Zhu was in town last October to shoot a movie for Ignite Media. Batanes is the story of a young widow (played by Iza Calzado) who may possibly find love again with a Taiwanese fisherman who gets stranded in her hometown. According to Director Adolfo Alix, Jr., Batanes is the point in the Philippines that is closest to Taiwan and it’s not unheard of for a fisherman to be stranded there.

It was a casting coup of Ignite Media to sign on the Asian pop superstar along with Iza, Sid Lucero, Joem Bascon, Bembol Roco, and Coco Martin. Producer Arleen Cuevas had sent a contact in Hong Kong a copy of the script, which was later sent to Fu Long, Ken Zhu’s management company. Ken immediately signed on after he read the script.

But before he could come to Philippines, Ken had to participate in a Tai Chi competition (which he won) in the Basque region of, Spain first. After leaving the region of Basque and making a few European stopovers, Ken traveled from Bangkok to Hong Kong to Manila to Basco, Batanes before taking a boat to the island of Sabtang for the shoot.

Nothing they expected

While the staff and crew were expecting a full entourage that usually accompanies the F4 wherever they go, Ken arrived with just his manager and a makeup artist. He even brought boxes of Chinese pastries that he gave out to some members of the cast and the crew.

They also discovered the special provisions that they provided for the Taiwanese star were unnecessary. Not that he didn’t appreciate their efforts, but he much preferred to be treated the same way as anyone else.

Coco Martin recalls that during the first meal they had together, Ken was given a different set of food since he might find the local cuisine not to his taste. To their surprise, Ken sat himself at the end of their table, offered his food to them, and tried out the dishes everyone else was eating.

Ken even had Pinoy-styled breakfasts like tapsilog(fried rice, fried egg, and fried beef cutlets) during his stay. His only request was the addition of fruit to the meals. Before he left, he also asked Producer Arleen to help him buy dried mangoes to take back as pasalubong(gift) for friends in Taiwan.

The producers had also arranged for an air-conditioned van to take him to and from the set everyday. But the Taiwanese star said he preferred driving himself on a motorbike, saying he enjoyed it since there were no paparazzi or people who followed him around like they do abroad. Besides, it also meant he could get a tan since his role calls for a fisherman who is out at sea under the sun all day. He had to have fake tan applied for the first few days of the shoot, but he was soon dark enough to forego the makeup.

He had the same accommodations as everyone else did at the Batanes Seaside Lodge, nothing like the five-star hotels he was used to but he didn’t complain. Even the portable toilet stall that they had on the set especially for him soon became for common use.

Bonding in Batanes

Director Adolfo Alix, Jr. says that Ken was ever the professional, coming to the set on time and working 12 hours – sometimes more – a day to shoot his scenes. Once, he had a day off to go sightseeing, but he came back to the set later that day. He said he felt guilty about taking a break while everyone else was hard at work.

Direk Adolf, who is also at the helm of the Cinema One Originals entry Tambolista, also had a unique bonding moment with Ken after the former had a small accident on the set. He injured his foot when he tripped on some coral buried in the sand while they were shooting on the beach. When Ken later on noticed his swollen foot, he offered to massage it for direk since he knew reflexology. This really took Direk Adolf – and everyone else – by surprise. They couldn’t imagine that an Asian superstar like a member of F4 would do something like give someone a massage. But Ken genuinely wanted to help his director so he ended up giving Direk Adolf a reflexology massage.

As for working with the Taiwanese star, Direk Adolf says, “It’s been a pleasant surprise working with Ken. He’s very down-to-earth. Never did he demand (for anything) or make us feel that he’s a celebrity. And he listens to our instructions as a director.”

Meanwhile, Sid Lucero and Ken hit it off over talk of travel and their respective sports. When Sid first met the Taiwanese star, Ken had newly arrived on the set and was talking to directors Adolfo Alix, Jr. and Dave Hukom. Hearing Ken talk about Tai Chi, Sid mentioned that he was into boxing. Their conversation soon progressed from sports to adventures in traveling. They got along so well that Sid even invited Ken to a traditional inuman(drinking alcohol) session. Ken, however, had to beg off since he had just arrived in Batanes and wanted to rest.

From that point on though, Ken would always join in conversations with the cast. Ken even told them about his three- to four-month stay in the Gobi dessert in Mongolia where he was made to drink horsemilk wine, which according to him, is something that tastes as awful as it sounds. Sid admits that he became so envious of Ken’s Mongolian trip that he plans on going on one himself, that is if he gets any time off from work.

Iza Calzado was the one who had to spend the most time onscreen with Ken. She had freshly arrived from Toronto where she was shooting The Echo with Jesse Bradford and Amelia Warner before she headed to Batanes.

Since Ken’s character speaks only Chinese, he had to communicate using only body language. So it was a plus that he’s a Tai Chi champion with all the right moves (He even taught Iza a few Tai Chi moves between breaks). Off-cam, he didn’t have a hard time like his character in communicating with cast and crew, who agree that he’s “very simple, down-to-earth, and makulit din(likes to fool around).” (He even calls veteran actor Bembol Roco “Uncle Bem”).

When SSM asked Iza how it was like working with him, she said it was like working with a brother. “He’s nice and grounded even if he’s a superstar in Asia. I learned a lot of what it’s like to work in China, Taiwan, and Japan. It’s nice to converse with someone like him because he will tell you that truth, no sugar coating it. He’s very playful. Malakas mang-asar(likes to tease). Like I said, parang kuya(like a brother).”

Audiences will definitely see a different side of Ken when Batanes premiers this December. Ken will be back by then to help promote the movie, and the cast and crew look forward to another kulitan(fooling around) session with him.

hay naku.....pasencia....nakaka-shock lang ksi mga pangyayare......anyway...the truth will come out.....4 d meantym let's just hope that we wil be able to come out of this crisis....once again....in a peaceful way....watta a timing.....:confused:

[vayz]

HEP HEP HEP!!! angeldream, these people shouldn't have done that crisis in the first place. They shouldn't have walked out of the hearing of their mutiny case much less took over Manila Pen where there are guests and tourists as well. Ano tawag mo sa mga taong ito na nag pa press con pa para pababain ang babae nating presidente sa kanyang posisyon? If they wanted to surrender they should have done it earlier. And believe me, bago pasukin ang hotel me agreement na yan with the management. I believe me mga routine check up and questioning para sa lahat ng nasa loob during the take over, ke sino pa sila. What were they doing there? At the same place and at the same moment and time. Now, if they are innocent, then they'll be freed. Sa dami ng media natin at sobrang gasgas ng gamit ng phrase na 'freedom of the press, freedom of speech,' palagay mo me madedehado pa? Sa katulad kong volunteer worker ng mga pribadong grupo which is helping the government in the poverty alleviation, nakakadismaya ito. If you want I can pm you some disappointments and frustrations we experienced because of the oakwood mutiny. Magback out lang ang isang donor na naniniwala sa isang magandang programa dahil lang sa selfishness ng mga taong ito, nakakasama na ng loob. Hah! sabi ko na nga ba, pag na sensationalized na naman ito, these opportunists pa ang kakaawaan. Kainis... grrrr... Ken coming here is beyond the point...

[angeldream]

pasencia na tita vayz.....my reaction is not bout ken's coming...na bka di matuloy....maybe i just got shocked sa nakita ko sa tv....maybe they(govt) reacted that way kc....they have reasons that u know na di ako aware.....it cud be political.....it cud be real nationalism....kunsyensya na nila lahat yun.....kht ano pa sbihin naten...nangyare na....it's our country....it's stil about us and our future....

IZA’S GOOD WORDS FOR KEN

LOVE is at the center in Ignite Media and GMA Films “Batanes” starring Iza Calzado and Ken Chu and co-directed by Adolfo Alix, Jr. (with Dave Hukom as the other director). It is a look at a relationship between two cultures. Hence the tagline, love knows no borders.

"Batanes" with its vast landscapes, rough seas and unpredictable weather plays a vital role to the story. It represents the gamut of emotions the characters feel when they fall for each other.

Casting Ken Chu of the Taiwanese boy band F-4 was never planned. He auditioned and passed. The star of "Meteor Garden" fame immediately fell in love with "Batanes," calling it a paradise. There was no communication problem since Ken speaks English.

The Taiwanese superstar plays the character of Kao, a fisherman whom Pam (Iza Calzado) fell in love with the second time around.

Iza only had good words for Ken commenting how cooperative and professional he was while shooting "Batanes."

Very Rough Translation:

After 4 years, f4 finally to realese a new album! Japanese and other Asian fans anticipates the long-awaited album release. There will be 2 groups songs and 2 songs each member, for a total of 10 songs.


The past few years, they have developed individually. Group four sour note beautiful ballad "Goodbye", four years each on a separate path growing trajectory feels like to me. BS Nippon Television will start broadcasting on December 12, 2007, the drama "Waiting For You". Its opening and ending theme songs are included. Last October 2007, NHK drama also broadcasted "The Hospital" starring Jerry. Its theme song is also featured.

KEN CHU......HEART AND SOUL:)

Will you release a new album after the Spring Festival?

This year is my seventh year in the business. Because next year is already my 8th year I have to carefully consider the next phase of my life. Up until now, the work that I am doing now isn’t my first choice. But after this I will plan it well, after considering all sorts of professions and businesses I will do the kind of work I like. Of course, I will also be acting and singing but I will be slowly doing behind the scenes kind of work, something like a producer. Right now, I am in the process of working out an outline for a drama. The concept includes the relationship between “People and Humanity,” “People and the Times,” “People and the Environment.” I want to depict all sorts of contradictions and make a drama out of it. The general idea is a love story. I thought of these essential factors and incorporated it into a love story.

Starting the end of this year up until next year, I will be doing my second solo album. My plan is to finish it by Chinese New Year but with music you can’t control the situation, therefore I can’t definitely say when it will be finished. I did almost all the work for this album. That is why it ‘s taking some time. I am also looking forward to the day when it will be finished (laughs). I started it 6 months ago after that I went on filming, I haven’t done any work for 4 months now (laughs). This is the only time I can talk about the concept. The title of the first album is “On Ken’s Time,” the next one is “Getting Real,” this is the working title. But I want to develop more on this concept. The melody is easy listening, the relaxing kind that gives off a gentle feeling. I am thinking of that kind of music.”

Xiao Tian hopes to be an accomplished artist using the simplest way of transmitting positive news to his fans it’s the simplest way to communicate as an artist.

I have read fan mail etc, some of them don’t understand their life and the life of others; I feel that there are a lot of people who are confused about their life. In that case, then, we have to help the lives and existence of those people. I think I want to relay more positive words.:)

That singing posture fascinates fans.

The day after the interview was the Yokohama Fan Meeting, he taught fans to cook on the spot, we saw him present gifts, Ken and his fans were very happy in the exchange. On stage a fan began to cry, he politely embraced her, he sang “Meteor Rain” with the fans, in the end, “take care on your way back” Ken was full of charm as he said goodbye to send off his fans.

Requirements of a Good Man: Being able to cook.,

KEN CHU.....HEART AND SOUL:)


Interview with Ken at Hou Hai, Ken's thoughts & relationship with fans


The interview with Ken started in a classic Vietnamese restaurant by
the Yen Dien Chao at Hou Hai. Sitting on the third floor, you can feel
cheerful sunlight shone through the skylight. Ken opened up his heart,
talking to us right from the bottom of his heart. From the interaction
with Ken, I noticed that I have overlooked F4.


H: Do you think you have a distance with your fans? What distance do
you wish to keep?


K: I think the word distance has two definitions. The first one is theliteral meaning, the real distance. The other one is the gap betweenout hearts. These few years, I'm very glad. Some fans want to getclose to me, literally. To me, it's bothersome. When I'm working and
you try to get near me, you won't be able to get anything. You seethe real me, but you haven't gained anything.Another type is that our souls are very close. I discover that there are more and more of This type. They dont have to be in the same place as I am. But when they see my productions, they'll understand the message I want to convey.

H:Can you tell us about your personality? Some people say you look
very good-natured, but actually you're a little rebellious.

K: My character is I like to simplify complicated things.

H: You have had a few years of stage experience; so do you still get
nervous now?

K: It's my fifth year now, I still get nervous, but it's also this
nervousness that gives me the "explosive power" I have on stage.

L: So what's in Ken's head most of the time?

K: Oh, everything. But these days, all I can think about is rest!


L: Vanness once described you as "cool and collected - but a deep
thinker." Did he nail you down to a T?

K: That's just one side of me. But that's probably how he sees me.

L: You've gone through hard times and taken on odd jobs (http://www.tsinoy.com/forum/editpost.php?do=editpost&p=764761#) as a gardener,
waiter, and even worked in a pet shop. What life lessons have you
learnt?

K: From young, I didn't have everything. For me, to set your sights
too high is only setting yourself up for disappointment. It's hard to
always remain at the top. I only strive to be happy and contented in hard
work. Make an honest living.



L: Sound like you're a very contented guy!

K: Well, I can't complain... my career has been going pretty well!


L: What touches you most about your work?


K: People who take me seriously and follow me around everywhere just to show their support. To me, it really means I'm appreciated for my efforts. It makes me contented to think I made a difference in their lives.

Iza Calzado teams up with Ken Zhu in ‘Batanes’

By Remy M. Umerez
Inquirer
Last updated 00:28am (Mla time) 12/01/2007

MANILA, Philippines—With its title, you might think “Batanes” is a special feature on National Georgraphic. It could have been, but it is not. A joint venture of Ignite Media and GMA-7, “Batanes” is essentially a picturesque romance, and an intimate portrait of a woman's relationship with the sea. It is written (and codirected) by Adolf Alix Jr. and Dave Hukom. The story in a nutshell:

It is a whirlwind romance when Pam (Iza Calzado) meets Ivatan Rico (Joem Bascon), and follows him to Batanes where they wed.

Pam tries to adjust to the Ivatan way of life, but finds the sea threatening. One day, Rico does not return from fishing, and she blames no one but the sea.

Stranger

On the anniversary of his death, she sails to Ivujos island and get stranded in a storm. She sees a man lying in the sand. The stranger turns out to be Taiwanese. She drags Kao (Ken Zhu) to her boat after his fever subsides and takes him back with her to the village.

The villagers are reluctant to accept the Taiwanese since most fishermen from Taiwan fish illegally in Batanes. As Pam tries to take care of Kao, she starts to be drawn towards him. Then, despite language and cultural differences, love beckons.

The role of Pam was originally meant for Judy Ann Santos, who liked the part but had to beg off due to a previous commitment. The popular actress suggested Iza, who was then finishing her scenes in “The Echo,” the English-language remake of Yam Laranas’ horror film, “Sigaw. ”In the future, Iza says she would like to play out-of-the box roles similar to her character in another indie movie, “Mona: Singapore Escort.”

Ken Zhu auditioned for the role of the fisherman. He’s best known here as one of the members of the Taiwanese boy band F-4. He speaks English and Cantonese. He starred in the famous TV series, “Meteor Garden,” and its sequel, “Meteor Rain,” which swept Asia by storm. He played the lead in the movies, “Sky of Love” (2003) and “Tokyo Trial” (2006).

First feature

Adolf Alix Jr.’s first feature, “Donsol,” was a finalist in the 2006 Cinemalaya film festival where it won Best Actress (for Angel Aquino) and Best Cinematography honors. It then bagged the Special Jury trophies in the Asian Marine Film Festival in Japan and the Fort Lauderdale film festival.

David Hukom is the CEO of Ignite Media, a post production company. He is a video and film editor, creative director, systems specialist, integrator and designer. His credits as a film editor include “Madrasta,” “The Promise” and “Pamihiin.”

Ken Chu returns to Manila.

Issue # 1: The frenzy over "Batanes" & Ken Chu

This could very well be an early Christmas present to all movie fans. "Batanes" --- a movie produced by Ignite Media and GMA Films will finally be shown on Wednesday, December 5.

Taiwanese superstar Ken Chu of Meteor Garden and Tokyo Trial – stars in his first Filipino film with Iza Calzado in this romance-drama.

The film also boasts of a powerhouse ensemble cast – newcomer Joem Bascon, Coco Martin, Mike Tan, Sid Lucero and Glaiza de Castro --- with acting heavyweights Bembol Roco and Daria Ramirez.

This early, the fans of F4 member Ken Chu have been hounding us for tickets and the chance to meet him in the various promotional activities that he will be attending. Ken will be guesting in Showbiz Central and will be granting interviews for various GMA7 shows. On Monday, Dec. 3 –he will attend the press conference in Podium and a Fans Day at the Trinoma. On Tuesday, Dec. 4 – he will be at the film’s public premiere. He flies out of the country on Dec. 5 which is the film’s opening day.

So in love with the Philippines, Ken is slated to come back to finance a Filipino film and buy a property in picturesque Batanes.

i SPEAK:

I have seen the film already and I dare say that "Batanes" is one of the best films of the year! Cinematography is perfect. The music is outstanding. And the ensemble acting is great!

People who say that the Filipino film industry is dead should watch "Batanes" and support this worthy effort in making sense despite the Third World filmmaking limitations!

DARATING ngayong Linggo si Ken Chu para mag-promote ng Batanes na showing sa December 5.

Ang unang balita’y magi-guest sila ni Iza Calzado sa SOP, pero kundi siya makahabol dahil 10 a.m. ang dating ng eroplanong sinasakyan niya, sa Showbiz Central na lang siya aapir.

Bukas, makakausap siya ng press sa presscon na inihanda ng GMA Films at Ignite Media at susunod dito ang press preview.

May fans’ day sa Dec. 3 ang cast sa Trinoma at du’n din gagawin ang premiere night sa Dec. 4.

Hi guys, just want to say thanks for all the interview links you post here especially this last one sa SC. Hope meron pang mag post ng mas full na clip ng SOP and SC appearance ni Ken. Pleeeaassseee. It means so much to us who can't physically be there but are just as thrilled to see Ken on Phil. TV.

BTW, meron bang mga sis from overseas (Tw, Japan, Korea etc.) who were able to come to the studio and who are going to watch the premier? Just curious. Baka kasi naninibago sila sa style ng mga Philippine fans na buhay na buhay and puro kawindangan.

More power to you guys and of course to Ken!

[pr3tchie]

Ni hao Kenics! Thank you sa lahat ng mga clips/pics from SOP and Showbiz Central! I made sure to get up early morning to check the updates from yesterdays event. Ang swerte nyo aken, greyhavens, joey and the rest of Ken sistahs who were there to see Ken up close & personal. Looking forward for more goodies tomorrow after the Fans day in Trinoma. Thanks in advance and enjoy tomorrow.

wow fresh n fresh ang dating ni Ken.. a big change from his look in Batanes. Mukhang di na rin tan ang skin nya. waaaahhh ang shuai talaga!

thanks ulit sistahs!

"Batanes" hero Ken Zhu gives fans the thrill of their lives
Elyas Isabelo Salanga

http://www.pep.ph/images/news/8d5c931ea.jpg
Taiwanese pop superstar Ken Zhu returned to the Philippines yesterday, December 2, to help promote his movie with Iza Calzado (inset) titled Batanes.


Filipino fans of Taiwanese pop superstar Ken Zhu of F4 got the opportunity to meet him up close as he and Batanes co-star Iza Calzado shared the limelight at Showbiz Central yesterday, December 2.

Although Kenwas not feeling well, the quiet and laidback singer-actor still made a good impression on Showbiz Central's studio audience and hosts. As Ken and Iza entered the stage, the crowd went wild and ear-dropping squeals filled the whole studio. SC co-host Raymond Gutierrez exclaimed, "I have never seen the audience go this wild here on Showbiz Central!"


Ken, who looked surprised at the crowd's reaction, greeted the screaming fans with a polite "Hello." But he also politely motioned the fans to keep quiet when the interview started.
KEN LOVES KAMOTE. Ken revealed that he first visited the Philippines when he was just seven years old. He returned many years later, when F4 visited the country at the height of the Meteor Garden mania.

Pia Guanio asked Ken what he loves most about the Philippines.

"I like the people here and the atmosphere and the food," Ken answered.

"About loving the food in the Philippines, what particular type of food did you fall in love with?" a curious Pia asked.

"Uh, I think the kamote. Because while we were doing the project, the camera crew was cooking their own food and I join them every day for kamote," Ken narrated.

How about the province of Batanes, did he love it as well?

"Yes, I love that place," he replied. "The place was really beautiful. It's like paradise. I think the Philippines is a very promising site for development and stuff, so I'm looking on a long term thing of investing and development. "

BATANES, THE MOVIE. Since the interview now focused on Batanes, Raymond asked, "Now you guys have great chemistry in Batanes. How was it working with Iza Calzado in the film for three weeks?"

"Three weeks?" a puzzled Ken asked. "Oh, we actually only worked for about two weeks. It was fun, it was really fun. Every day was really fun because she is a very nice person and we got along very easily."

John "Sweet" Lapus asked, "You got along very easily?" Turning to, Iza he said, "Iza saan galing ¡yung misunderstanding n'yo daw? Sa pagkanta niya daw?"

Iza answered, "I think it was during the presscon, I was telling the press people that I told him [Ken] that I'm sorry because I thought before... You know, I was really not part of the whole Meteor Garden fanatics. But when I heard him singing in the set, I was very much impressed and I had to tell him that he was such a great singer."

Upon hearing this, the SC hosts requested Ken if he could sing a few lines. Unfortunately, he politely refused saying that he wasn't feeling well because of a cold.

A mix of "Awww!" and "Sayang!" echoed around the studio as the fans missed out on an extra treat. However, Pia had a juicy question for Iza and Ken: "Were you guys uncomfortable with your kissing scene with each other?"

Before Ken could speak, Iza jokingly interrupted, "No, not at all. I don't think so."

"Tinatakot mo yata Iza, e," Pia commented.
LUCKY FAN. Rose, a devout F4 fan, was given the opportunity to ask and kiss her favorite star. The starstruck fan fumbled as she took out a paper containing questions; she looked as if she still couldn't believe that Ken himself would answer.

Rose got herself together and asked, "We have learned that you will have new film together with other F4 members. When is the release of this film?"

"We're actually doing a drama series for the Taiwanese tourism board right now. So, it's gonna be finished probably by the end of this year," Ken replied.

"How about music releases?" Raymond followed up.

"Oh, yeah. We just finished an album together. It's gonna be released in Japan this month and soon it's gonna be released in Southeast Asia as well."

Pia now suggested that it was time for Rose to hug Ken to complete the fan's wish of total F4 bliss for five seconds. As John translated to Ken that Rose was about to hug him, he gamely gave the go signal.

"Sure!" said Ken, as the lucky Rose hugged and jumped and kissed him all at the same time.

When Rose got her fill, she excitedly said her thanks. The ever-gentlemanly Ken replied, "You're welcome."

Sweet, who earlier told everyone that he was going to attempt to get a kiss from Ken, quipped, "Ken, I'm your number one fan, too. Can I kiss you?"

"For you, you have to pay," Ken joked.

From Taiwan with Love
Article posted December 03, 2007

The Philippines first fell in love with him when he was a member of a Taiwanese boy band. Now more mature and even more handsome, Ken Chu falls in love with the Philippines. Text by KC M. Abalos. Photos by Mitch S. Mauricio.

For those who do not follow Asian pop culture, Chu Xiao Tien, better known as Ken Chu.</U> (http://www.igma.tv/video/2221/Chika-Minute-F4s-Ken-Zhu-falls-in-love-with-Batanes<u), was a member of the Taiwanese boy band F4. After two albums, Meteor Rain and Fantasy Forever, the members of the group chose to pursue solo careers both in recording and in acting.

http://www2.igma.tv/igmaweb/webpics/insides/stars/ken_chu_02a3.jpgAfter starring in a television series in mainland China, recording a critically acclaimed album in Taiwan, and filming a movie about Japan, Ken Chu is ready to visit the Philippines once again. He has visited the country three times, once when he was a kid, twice for a concert with his F4 buddies. What is it like to be back? What is it like working with Filipinos?

“They are definitely the most heartwarming. They made me feel at home everyday” he says warmly.

The Asian Superstar heads the stellar cast in the most recent project of GMA Films and Ignite Media, Batanes: Ang Pag-Ibig ay Walang Hangganan.</U> (http://www.igma.tv/video/2434/Batanes-Trailer-(Version-1)<u) It is only fair that he falls head over heels in love with the island, especially after the Philippines went crazy for this hunk after the release of the show, Meteor Garden.

“I love the place. This is a paradise” he says about the northernmost part of the country where he stayed to shoot the film for almost a month.

In Batanes, </U> (http://www.igma.tv/video/2435/Batanes-Trailer-(Version-2)<u)Ken plays a Taiwanese fisherman named Kao who gets lost in the sea and eventually finds love in the most beautiful but unlikely of places.

Loving Ken


http://www2.igma.tv/igmaweb/webpics/insides/stars/ken_chu_02a2.jpgAccording to director Adolf Alix, Jr. (Mga Munting Tinig, Donsol), the production hoped but they never expected that Ken would accept the offer. Apparently, Taiwanese actor liked the script and immediately expressed interest in the project.

According to his co-star Glaiza de Castro, (http://www.igma.tv/profile/glaiza-de-castro) Ken is one cool dude who has no star complex whatsoever.

Glaiza shares, “Cool niya sobra! Wala siyang pakialam. Kungwari nakasalampak lang kami sa sand. Siya ganoon rin! Kung ano kinakain namin iyun din kinakain niya. Kung saan kami nagstay dun din siya!”

This is echoed by his loveteam partner in the film, Iza Calzado. </U> (http://www.igma.tv/profile/iza-calzado<u).

“He is very cool. Minasahe niya pa ako. Because apparently in Tai Chi, they know how to heal. Last day ng shooting, minasahe niya thigh ko!”

Ken also has only good words to say about Iza too! “I get along with her very easily.1, 2, 3, we started talking and suddenly she’s like a very good friend. It’s been my pleasure working with her. We had a lot of fun.”

Catch Ken in Manila! He will have a grand fan’s day at the Trinoma Mall, 3PM on December 3, 2007. Batanes: Ang Pag-Ibig ay Walanga Hangganan will be shown in theaters on December 5 with a premiere night on December 4 also at Trinoma Mall.

Talk about Batanes in the iGMA forum. (http://www.igma.tv/forum/index.php/topic,2491.0.html)

KEN ON IZA: SHE GAVE ME A GOOD TIME

THE audience in the Broadway studio where “Showbiz Central” was held last Sunday went wild when Taiwanese actor Ken Chu guested live with his “Batanes” co-star, Iza Calzado. The F4 star confirmed he’s doing a new TV series with Jerry Yan and company and this will be shown next year. Ken admitted to host Pia Guanio he likes it here in the Philippines. “I like the people here, the atmosphere, the food, especially camote que,” he says. “I love Batanes. It’s like paradise.”

He also enjoyed working with Iza. “She’s a nice person and we get along very easily. She gave me a good time.”

Pia asked him to sing but he begged off saying he’s not feeling well. “He came straight from the airport,” says Iza. “At may ubo’t sipon siya. But he still came just to promote our movie that starts its regular run this Wednesday.”

Maiingay na fans, sinaway ni Ken Chu
By: Nitz Miralles

Natawa naman kami nang patahimikin ni Ken Chu ang maiingay na fans habang nagpo-promote sila ni Iza ng Batanes.

Ginawa rin niya ’yun sa concert nila rito ng F4 at talagang sinaway ang nagsisigawang fans habang siya’y kumakanta.

Hindi na lang halu-halo ang gusto ni Ken, pati na camote cue, na natikman niya sa shooting. Inulit nito ang pagsasabing love niya ang Batanes at balak niyang mag-invest dito.

Naikuwento nito kay Lhar Santiago na ipinaulit sa kanila ni Iza ang love scene nila sa movie dahil they overdid it.

Mabuti raw na kinunan ang love scene two days before their last shooting days dahil relaxed na sila sa isa’t isa ni Iza.

Life

Capturing the romance of Batanes

By Roel Hoang Manipon, Staff Writer

2007 December 04

The waves are towering, and the cliffs and hills, blanketed in green grass, resonate with beautiful desolation. The villages are quaint and quiet, and life moves in a pensive pace. Many people who have been to Batanes, the northernmost province of the Philippines made up of small islands strewn between the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea, swear that the place is like no other in the country.

"I immediately fell in love with the place. I didn't think there was such a place in the Philippines that mixes the beauty of Greece, Tibet and New Zealand," exclaimed young filmmaker Adolfo Ali, Jr. "The landscapes, the mountains and the raging waves. Wow! No amount of words can actually describe the beauty of Batanes."

For him, Batanes is a perfect place to fall in love. It complements the beauty and heartache of love in general with its landscape and raging seas.

From this experience, Alix made a romantic movie, which takes the name of the province as its title and which the public may view in a couple of days.

Set in the islands of Batan and Sabtang, Batanes the movie tells of love lost and found, and of man's relationship with nature. It follows the story of Pam (played by Iza Calzado), a woman who leaves her stressful life in Manila and comes to Batanes to marry a fisherman. Their idyllic married life is cut short when her husband Rico (played by charming newcomer Joem Bascon) dies at sea. The grieving Pam decides to leave Batanes, but changes her mind, resolving to come to terms with her grief and with the place, which reminds her of her husband, as well as serves as her adversary, particularly the sea. One day during a storm, a Taiwanese fisherman (played by Taiwanese superstar Ken Chu, of the boy band F4 fame) is cast ashore, near death. Pam nurses him back to health. The villagers are reluctant to accept Kao, because there is a history of rift between fishermen of both places. Taiwanese fishermen have been illegally fishing in Batanes waters. But Pam is drawn towards the stranger. In spite of language and cultural differences, she feels she has found a kindred soul. Gradually, they fall in love.

As much as the story, the movie features the landscapes of Batanes, reflecting Alix's romance with the place. "So far, it's the best place that I've been to," enthused Alix, whose travels in the country comprised Pagudpod in Ilocos Norte, Bohol and Donsol in Sorsogon. "It's very difficult to describe the place because of its utmost beauty. Life is simple yet the place is grand."

...

While Kadin led him to Batanes, Batanes the movie is more inspired by the place itself. While doing research for and filming Kadin, Alix was inspired to do a love story set in the place. Alix, though, is not the first to see the potential of Batanes a setting for a romantic film. Carlos Siguion-Reyna's first film Hihintayin Kita sa Langit (1991) transplanted the story of Emily Bronte's gothic novel Wuthering Heights into Batanes, making use of the place's forlorn beauty. Interestingly, Alix worked with Siguion-Reyna on Kahapon May Dalawang Bata (Yesterday Children) in 1999, when he was working as a freelance film and television writer.

While Siguion-Reyna took a classic piece of literature to make his Batanes movie, Alix delved on another aspect.

"I was thinking of a love story that would be right for the place," Alix revealed. "I asked some people from Batanes, and I heard of stories about Taiwanese and Vietnamese fishermen stranded in the islands especially during the typhoon season. I think that was the perfect material to delve into - the rising and falling of the waves, people coming and going in one woman's life. So, I asked the writer, Arah Jell Badayos, to come with us during the shoot of Kadin to interview people, and she actually met the Vietnamese fisherman who was swept away to Batanes and eventually married an Ivatan."

Batanes the movie shares more affinity with his first film than Kadin.

"I think Batanes is a companion piece to my first film, Donsol," Alix said. "Both films are love stories, but essentially about the psychology of love. I've read somewhere that sadness is the emotion that lingers the most, certainly longer than happiness. It stays with people longer; it's more provocative. It lifts your spirit in a strange way because it inspires you to think about your existence. In essence, Donsol and Batanes explore that."

On the other hand, Kadin is more of a personal film. "I wanted people to go back to the basics and confront issues we seldom ignore in this age of technology," he said. "Living is really simple. What we need is a good heart."

Batanes the movie provided major firsts for Alix. Working with the digital format in most of his films, he had the chance to use 35-millimeter film in Batanes. He also had a co-director, Dave Hukom, the CEO of the two-year-old post-production company Ignite Media Inc. Alix's relationship with Ignite Media began with Donsol, when it was transferred to 35-mm film using its facilities. The company then co-produced Kadin. Now, Ignite Media is co-producing Batanes together with media giant GMA Films.

"I really admired Dave's commitment to independent films and his unwavering support to projects he believes in," Alix revealed. "One time, we talked about what we can collaborate with. Out of that, I pitched the idea to do Batanes, and we both have the same stand on how the film will be treated, and we decided to work on the material."

For Alix, working with a co-director seems like a breeze. "Discussions were mostly about how the camera would be set up and how to shoot certain key sequences. There were no conflicts between me and Dave. Dave and I really talked about everything before we shoot. We even did storyboard in the beginning," he said. "I think we both have the same sensibilities in terms of how we wanted to the film to look and feel. I think that's the key to a good collaboration - chemistry."

"Filmmaking is collaboration to begin with," Alix continued. "I think with or without a co-director, you are actually co-authoring the film with your production staff. The input coming from the production designer, the cinematographer and even the sound people make or break the final output. Having a co-director is just like having a friend whom you trust. You discuss things, thinking what will work best in each scene. There will be arguments, but that's what makes the team-up interesting. In the end, the film benefits from all of that."

Conflicts lay in the place itself, according to Alix, struggling with its elements and its temperaments. "Shooting in Batanes is actually a logistical nightmare," he said, "because we brought in all the equipment we need - from the lighting equipment, the generators to the crane. The weather was very erratic. Sometimes it was sunny then it would just start to rain. So, most of the problems were on the logistics side. We sat down to talk on how to best maximize the resources we had."

Despite the rigors of filming in such places, Alix is bent on making films set in beautiful places in the country. In fact, he is set to do a film set in the controversial Spratly Islands in the middle of South China Sea, off the western coast of Palawan. With Kalayaan as working title, the film will tell about the life of a military patrol guard assigned to one of the smaller islands in the Spratlys, and is slated to be shot in January next year.

"I want to explore how life is in isolation," Alix revealed. "The military men are supposed to be trained for physical warfare, but what happens when you're all alone in an island with nothing to do? All your inner demons come out and it feels as if you're in a limbo for three months. Also, the problems encountered by the military in the island and how they cope up with loneliness I want to delve into."

Aside from Kalayaan, Alix has several projects in mind: "I have a script with the first Edsa revolution as backdrop. Hopefully, I will be able to do it in my lifetime. Also, I want to do the epic Lam-ang and a film that chronicles the Death March. I'm planning to go to Siargao to do research for a surfing movie that we're planning to shoot during summer also."

But Batanes, both the movie and the place, will hold a special place in Alix's heart.

"It will always be memorable because it's my first film shot on 35mm," he said. "I also discovered Iza Calzado's fantastic range as an actress and working with Ken Chu, an Asian superstar who's very cooperative. I also get to feature a lot of beautiful places in Batanes once again. It was like a working vacation."

On another level, Batanes made him think about how nature really is uncontrollable.

"You feel that there is a supreme being in charge of all things. I've been more introspective now because the quiet moments I have in Batanes made me think about a lot of things.And importantly, that life is really very simple. The Ivatans exemplify such simplicity," he said.

The 90-minute Batanes will open tomorrow, Dec. 5, in theaters nationwide. It stars Iza Calzado, Ken Chu, Joem Bascon, Bembol Roco, Daria Ramirez, Sid Lucero, Glaiza de Castro, Mike Tan, Coco Martin, Julio Diaz and Aleth dela Cruz.

BATANES FILM STARS ADOPTED AS IVATANS

December 4, 2007 | Posted by Karla Maquiling at Arts and Culture (http://pinoycentric.com/category/arts-and-culture/)

Iza Calzado (left) and Taiwanese boy band F4 star Ken Zhu don the Ivatan headwear during the conference for their film Batanes, after they are adopted as the newest members of the Ivatans, a local group found mainly in the northern Philippine islands of Batan, Sabtang, and Itbayat.

Directed by Adol Alix, Jr., Batanes is the story of a love that defies race and language. But it is also about man’s relationship with the ocean, and how the latter’s unpredictability is similar to a woman’s ever-changing mood.

Opening nationwide tomorrow, December 5, the film took 18 days to shoot in Basco and Sabtang. Asian Spirit played an integral role in bringing the island into the film as it is the only airline that offers flights to Batanes.

Maiingay na fans, sinaway ni Ken Chu
By: Nitz Miralles

Natawa naman kami nang patahimikin ni Ken Chu ang maiingay na fans habang nagpo-promote sila ni Iza ng Batanes.

Ginawa rin niya ’yun sa concert nila rito ng F4 at talagang sinaway ang nagsisigawang fans habang siya’y kumakanta.

Hindi na lang halu-halo ang gusto ni Ken, pati na camote cue, na natikman niya sa shooting. Inulit nito ang pagsasabing love niya ang Batanes at balak niyang mag-invest dito.

Naikuwento nito kay Lhar Santiago na ipinaulit sa kanila ni Iza ang love scene nila sa movie dahil they overdid it.

Mabuti raw na kinunan ang love scene two days before their last shooting days dahil relaxed na sila sa isa’t isa ni Iza.

Love knows no borders in 'Batanes'

Source: KCIFC Philippines
Sun Star Cagayan de Oro

THERE'S nothing like a great love story to move us. Love may slip through your fingers but life goes on. There's always a better promise of things to come. Love may be lovelier the second time around.

In Ignite Media and GMA Films' Batanes, love is at the center of this moving and powerful film - a heartwarming study of relationship between two cultures. Hence the tagline, "Love knows no borders."


Directors Adolf Alix Jr. and Dave Hukom describe the film as a poignant love story about two people who may or may not end up together. "Though they are from different cultures, they'll prove that love is very universal. Emotions knows no boundaries," the directors share.

With its vast landscapes, rough seas and ever-changing weather, Batanes is the perfect backdrop to this groundbreaking movie. Itself being an interesting character, Batanes may represent the gamut of emotions the characters feel when they fall for each other -- sweeping yet bittersweet.

Taiwanese superstar Ken Chu (Meteor Garden, Tokyo Trial) stars in his first Filipino film with Iza Calzado (Moments of Love, The Echo) in this romance-drama.

The film also boasts of a powerhouse ensemble cast - newcomer Joem Basco, Sid Lucero, Coco Martin, Mike Tan and Glaiza de Castro with acting heavyweights Bembol Roco, Daria Ramirez and Julio Diaz.

On board are line producer Arleen Cuevas, cinematographer Ramoncito Redoble, editor Miren Alvarez-Fabregas, sound recordist Mark Locsin, sound engineer Ditoy Aguila, production designer Cyrus Khan and music composer Jesse Lucas. Batanes is sponsored by Asian Spirit, Fuji Film, and Senco Link Technologies. The movie opens on December 5 in theaters nationwide. (Pres Release)

Batanes Buzz
Article posted December 04, 2007


iGMA was there when the cast of Batanes invited the members of the media in an exclusive press screening at the Podium last Monday, December 3, 2007. Text by KC M. Abalos. Photos by Mitch S. Mauricio.

Even the members of the media were excited to watch Batanes: Ang Pag-Ibig ay Walang Hangganan.</U> (http://www.igma.tv/video/2434/Batanes-Trailer-(Version-1)%3Cu) In an exclusive screening for the press at the Podium last Monday, December 3, 2007, the entire cast as well as the producers and directors of the film answered questions regarding the creation of the much talked about movie.

Of course, the buzz centered around Asian Superstar < a href=http://www.igma.tv/story/2849/From-Taiwan-with-Love>Ken Chu and how he was signed on to play the role of a Taiwanese fisherman. Director Adolf Alix Jr. himself is still very much in awe at how it all worked out. “Arleen [Cuevas], our Line Producer, and I were searching for Taiwanese actors. One of Arleen’s friends from Hong Kong suggested we give the script to Ken directly. Out of our gut feel, Arlene sent the script directly to Ken.”

After a week they got a reply. Ken was not only willing to do the project. He was also excited about the script and even gave his input to make his character even more authentic.

Direk Adolf adds “He added insights on how the material can be truthful in terms of the Taiwanese character.”

The Pinoy press could not help themselves and asked the most important question of all. How much was the F4 member’s talent fee?

Ken himself gamely answered. “The only thing I can say is that because I really love the script, I gave a lot of discounts.” Then he gave his signature hearty laugh.

Turning Ivatan

Aside from the advanced screening of the film, another highlight of the event was the special citation given to Ken Chu.</U> (http://www.igma.tv/video/2221/Chika-Minute-F4s-Ken-Zhu-falls-in-love-with-Batanes%3Cu) and Iza Calzado.</U> (http://www.igma.tv/profile/iza-calzado%3Cu) by the province of Batanes.

The Mayor of Basco himself officially made the stars of the film the province’s adopted son and daughter. He gave Iza a vakul, the headdress worn by Ivatan women that helps protect them from the strong winds and rain that pass through the island. Meanwhile, Ken received a kanayi, a native vest worn by the men.

Both Ken and Iza were overwhelmed and eagerly donned their new native gear to the delight of the press.

Batanes: Ang Pag-Ibig ay Walang Hangganan will be shown in theaters on December 5 with a premiere night on December 4 at Trinoma Mall.

ONE HUNDRED PERCENT PINOY MOVIE

WE have nothing but praises for Ignite Media Inc. and GMA Films for coming up with a film like “Batanes,” directed by Adolf B. Alix, Jr. and Dave Hukom and stars today’s most provocative beauty, Iza Calzado and Meteor Garden star Ken Chu, with Joem Bascon, Coco Martin, Mike Tan, Sid Lucero, Glaiza de Castro, Daria Ramirez and Bembol Roco.

The location is truly magnificent, so serene yet mystifying. Iza’s beauty proves to complement the natural terrain of Batanes. The film is also well acted by great Filipino actors and could place high in international competitions. It shows a very rich Filipino culture. One example was the wedding scene of Iza and Joem which was reminiscent of a scene from "The Godfather."

Batanes is a pre-Christmas movie that starts showing today, December 5. A must-see film, 100% Pinoy in consciousness and sensibilities.

IZA ON TWO LOVE SCENES: TRABAHO LANG

IZA Calzado has two lovescenes in “Batanes.” One is with newcomer Joem Bascon who plays her ill fated husband and the other one is with Taiwanese actor Ken Chu who plays a Tawainese fisherman who gets lost at sea and gets stranded in their island.

“Both of them, sila ang kinakabahan sa love scene namin, lalo si Joem na ako ang umalalay sa eksena. Dapat, very gentle ang eksena namin. Si Ken, it’s also his first love scene and we have to show that we’re making a connection. Pero kabado ako as I know he has many fans as a member of the F4 at baka magalit sila sa’kin so ngayon pa lang sinasabi ko na, trabaho lang po. He has done two films (“Sky of Love” and “Tokyo Trial”) pero wala raw parehong love scene kaya his manager was requesting na puro mukha lang ang ipakikita, no body shots. But Direk Adolf Alix explained na hindi naman puwede ‘yung ganun kaya may scene rin siya na topless siya. He’s nice to work with. Nang minsan umuwi siya sa Taiwan, pagbalik niya, may pasalubong na pagkain para sa amin ng buong cast and crew.”

We’ve seen the film and Iza delivers a fine performance as Pam, the grieving widow who falls in love with Ken, who was deserted by his wife for another man.

The beauty of Batanes is captured in the movie, with its pristine beaches and breathtaking scenery that’s worth the price of admission.

KASAMA ng press na nanood sa preview ng Batanes sina Iza Calzado at Ken Chu at bago ang screening ng movie, nagkaroon ng presscon.

Tinanong ang Taiwanese singer-actor ng kanyang talent fee. Ang sagot niya’y, “I really love the script, I gave a lot of discount.”

Ang nabasa namin sa Net, 3 million yuan ang TF niya at ang alam namin, he was paid in US dollars.

Binigyan ng PG-13 classification ng MTRCB ang movie, na ang ibig sabihin, puwedeng manood ang 13 years old basta may kasamang adult.

Biniro si Iza na dahil sa love scenes niya with Joem Bascon and Ken, kaya hindi ito nakakuha ng “GP” o general patronage.

Lalong gumanda ang pelikula sa mahusay na direksyon nina Adolf Alix Jr. at Dave Hukom, maganda ang production design, cinematograpy at magaling ang acting ng main cast.

Pati ang theme song na Pag-iisa ni Noel Cabangon ay nagpaganda sa pelikula.

Bago ang preview, kinilalang adoptive sons ang daughters ng Batanes sina Iza, Ken, Direk Adolf at Arleen Cuevas ni Basco Mayor Demy Narag.

Si Iza ay binigyan pa ng woman headdress called Bakud, at si Ken ay binigyan ng vest na Kanaye ang tawag.

OPENING today ang Ignite Media and GMA Films movie na Batanes directed by Dave Hukom and Adolfo Alix Jr.

Last Monday, nagbi-gay ng special preview for the press ang pelikula with the main stars Ken Chu and Iza Calzado in attendance together with their co-stars Mike Tan, Coco Martin and Joem Bascon. What impressed us most in the movie were its technical aspect and the acting ability of the stars.

Napakaganda na nga ng probinsyang Batanes, mas pinaganda pa ng ci-nematography ni Ramoncito Rodoble, pati na rin ang production design ni Cyrus Khan. Pang-international talaga ang dating ng pelikula with the two main stars Ken, who is a member of the Taiwanese superstar group F4, and Iza who is about to break in Hollywood with her movie The Echo. Kaya pala ngayon pa lang ay napakarami nang foreign markets na nagkaka-interest sa pelikula.

Rated PG 13 ang Batanes.

Sa ginanap na press preview ng Batanes ng Ignite Media, Inc. at GMA
Films sa Cinema 1 ng Podium kahapon, December 3, ay personal na ipinagkaloob ang official testimonial and token bilang adopted sons and daughters ng lalawigan ng Batanes sa lead stars ng movie na sina Ken Zhu at Iza Calzado, sa mga direktor ng pelikula na sina Adolf Alix at Dave Hukom, at sa producer na si Arleen Cuevas.

Ang mga token na ipinagkaloob sa kanila—especially with Ken and Iza—ay ang vacul, na headdress para sa babae na siyang sumasagisag or sumisimbolo sa mga kababaihan ng Ivatan o ang mga sinaunang babae ng Batanes.

Ipinakita rin na isinuot ni Iza ang vacul pagkaabot sa kanya. Ipinagkaloob naman sa Taiwanese superstar na si Ken ang kanaye, isang uri ng vest na siyang isinusuot ng mga kalalakihan sa Batanes.

Ang mga namumuno sa Batanes na sina Governor Telefosforo Castillejos, Congressman Carlos Diasnes, at Mayor Demi Narag ang mga nagkaloob ng testimonial at token sa dalawang bida, mga direktor, at producer ng pelikulang Batanes.

Parehong masaya at flattered sina Ken at Iza sa pagkilala na natanggap nila. Bilang mga adopted children ng Batanes, malaya na silang bumili at magkaroon ng sarili nilang property sa malayong lugar na ito ng Pilipinas.

Pero siyempre, iba naman sa kaso ni Ken dahil hindi naman siya Filipino citizen. Pero ayon nga sa kanya, ang Batanes ay isang "paradise."

Bukas, December 5, na magbubukas sa mga sinehan ang Batanes na magpapakita ng kagandahan ng naturang lalawigan.

Love Knows No Borders in 'Batanes'

posted on Tuesday, 2007 November 20

There's nothing like a great love story to move us. Love may slip through your fingers but life goes on. There's always a better promise of things to come. Love may be lovelier the second time around.

In Ignite Media and GMA Films' "Batanes," love is at the center of this moving and powerful film- a heartwarming study of a relationship between two cultures. Hence the tagline, "Love knows no borders."

Directors Adolfo Alix, Jr. (Donsol, Kadin, Tambolista) and Dave Hukom describe the film as a poignant love story about two people who may or may not end up together. "Though they are from different cultures, they'll prove that love is very universal. Emotions know no boundaries," the directors share.

With its vast landscapes, rough seas and ever-changing weather, Batanes is the perfect backdrop to this groundbreaking movie. Itself being an interesting character, Batanes may represent the gamut of emotions the characters feel when they fall for each other. Sweeping yet bittersweet.

Taiwanese superstar Ken Chu (Meteor Garden, Tokyo Trial) stars in his first Filipino film with Iza Calzado (Moments of Love, The Echo) in this romance drama.

The film also boasts of a powerhouse ensemble cast- newcomer Joem Bascon, Sid Lucero, Coco Martin, Mike Tan and Glaiza de Castro with acting heavyweights Bembol Roco, Daria Ramirez and Julio Diaz.

On board are line producer Arleen Cuevas, cinematographer Ramoncito Redoble , editor Miren Alvarez-Fabregas, sound recordist Mark Locsin, sound engineer Ditoy Aguila, production designer Cyrus Khan and music composer Jesse Lucas.

"Batanes" is sponsored by Asian Spirit, Fuji Film and Senco Link Technologies. The movie opens on December 5 in theaters nationwide.

Iza, naghubad sa harap ni Ken!

Rey Pumaloy
Abante Tonite

HINDI nagpaawat si Iza Calzado na magpaka-daring sa piling ng F4 member na si Ken Chu, at ng baguhang actor na si Joem Bascon.

Sa napanood naming pelikula na Batanes, tila bumigay si Iza kay Ken, at pati na kay Joem Bascon.

Aba, umabot sa lima ang kissing scene ni Iza kina Ken at Joem. At hindi `yon basta-basta halikan lang, dahil sa tantiya ko ay nag-aapoy na halikan talaga `yon sa sobrang init.

Sa pagkakaalam ko, ngayon lang pumayag si Iza na makipaglaplapan nang husto sa harap ng kamera, at may kasama pang bed scene ‘yon.

Kunsabagay, honeymoon scene ‘yon nila ni Joem. Kaya hindi kataka-taka na maging maalab ang lampungan nila.

Aba, nakabukas ang kanilang mga labi, at palaban talaga sila sa isa’t isa. Sabi nga, para silang mga ibon na nagtutukaan talaga.

Sa kissing scene naman nina Iza at Ken, umaapoy rin sa sobrang init ang dalawa. Halatang-halata mo na may pagnanasa sila sa harap ng kamera.

At sabi ko nga, first time ring nagpa-sexy ni Iza. Sa bed scene nila nina Ken at Joem, pumayag siya na magpakita ng likod na tila hubad na hubad.

Sabi nga, ang laki ng tiwala ni Iza kay direk Adolf Alix at Dave Hukom.

Pero siyempre, hindi lang naman puro sex ang pinagtuunan ng Batanes, dahil ipinakita rin dito ang napakagandang lugar ng Batanes.

Sabi nga nila, may paraiso nga raw sa Pilipinas na puwedeng ipagmalaki sa buong mundo, at sa Batanes `yon matatagpuan.

At siyempre pa rin, isa pa sa dapat abangan sa Batanes ay ang mahusay na pag-arte ni Iza. Sabi nga, saktong-sakto ang pagkaka-atake ni Iza sa role niya.

Wala nga raw sinayang na eksena si Iza sa buong pelikula, dahil nagpamalas talaga siya ng kahusayan. Aba, parang acting nga raw nina Lolita Rodriguez, Charito Solis at Nora Aunor ang atake na ginawa ni Iza.

Ang Batanes ay prodyus ng Ignite Media, Inc at ng GMA Films. Kasama rin sa pelikula sina Daria Ramirez, Bembol Rocco, Coco Martin, Julio Diaz at Sid Lucero.

Batanes Buzz

Article posted December 04, 2007

iGMA was there when the cast of Batanes invited the members of the media in an exclusive press screening at the Podium last Monday, December 3, 2007. Text by KC M. Abalos. Photos by Mitch S. Mauricio.

Even the members of the media were excited to watch Batanes: Ang Pag-Ibig ay Walang Hangganan. In an exclusive screening for the press at the Podium last Monday, December 3, 2007, the entire cast as well as the producers and directors of the film answered questions regarding the creation of the much talked about movie.

http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/kcifcph/Batanes/batanes_04c2.jpg

Of course, the buzz centered around Asian Superstar http://www.igma.tv/story/2849/From-Taiwan-with-Love (http://www.igma.tv/story/2849/From-Taiwan-with-Love) Ken Chu and how he was signed on to play the role of a Taiwanese fisherman. Director Adolf Alix Jr. himself is still very much in awe at how it all worked out. “Arleen [Cuevas], our Line Producer, and I were searching for Taiwanese actors. One of Arleen’s friends from Hong Kong suggested we give the script to Ken directly. Out of our gut feel, Arlene sent the script directly to Ken.”

After a week they got a reply. Ken was not only willing to do the project. He was also excited about the script and even gave his input to make his character even more authentic.

Direk Adolf adds “He added insights on how the material can be truthful in terms of the Taiwanese character.”

The Pinoy press could not help themselves and asked the most important question of all. How much was the F4 member’s talent fee?

Ken himself gamely answered. “The only thing I can say is that because I really love the script, I gave a lot of discounts.” Then he gave his signature hearty laugh.

Turning Ivatan

Aside from the advanced screening of the film, another highlight of the event was the special citation given to Ken Chu. and Iza Calzado. by the province of Batanes.

The Mayor of Basco himself officially made the stars of the film the province’s adopted son and daughter. He gave Iza a vakul, the headdress worn by Ivatan women that helps protect them from the strong winds and rain that pass through the island. Meanwhile, Ken received a kanayi, a native vest worn by the men.

Both Ken and Iza were overwhelmed and eagerly donned their new native gear to the delight of the press.

Batanes: Ang Pag-Ibig ay Walang Hangganan will be shown in theaters on December 5 with a premiere night on December 4 at Trinoma Mall.

Ken Chu, nagbigay raw ng malaking discount

Kahit masama ang pakiramdam ni Ken Chu ay dumalo pa rin ang F4 member sa press preview kahapon ng pelikulang Batanes sa Podium Cinema 1.

Nu'ng Linggo nang mag-guest siya sa Showbiz Central ay halata nang matamlay at hindi maganda ang pakiramdam ni Ken, pero nag-promote pa rin siya ng movie at pinanood kasama ng showbiz press.

"Sorry, I'm not feeling very well," bungad ng Taiwanese heartthrob sa short presscon bago ang screening ng pelikula.

Kahit maysakit ay nagawa pa ring magbiro ni Ken. Sagot niya sa tanong kung magkano ang ibinayad sa kanya, "Because I really loved the script, I gave a very, very big discount!"

At nu'ng tanungin siya kung gaano sila naging close ng kapareha niyang si Iza Calzado nang gawin nila ang Batanes pabirong hirit niya, "We went swimming together, we've been making out with each other... really close!" sabay smile.

Nagkaroon din ng short ceremony kung saan opisyal na hinirang ni Batanes Mayor Demi Narag sina Ken at Iza bilang 'adopted son and daughter' of the province of Batanes.

Si Ken ay binigyan ang native vest na sinusuot ng mga Ivatan at si Iza ay binigyan ng native headgear o headdress ng mga Ivatan. Sinuot 'yon ng dalawa at masayang nagpapiktyur together.

Sa Manila Peninsula pala dapat mag-istay si Ken habang nandito sa 'Pinas pero dahil sa Magdalo incident ay sa Makati Shangri-La na nag-check-in ang F4 member.

Mamaya ang premiere night ng Batanes sa Trinoma at bukas ang showing nito sa mga sinehan.

"You have to pay me," ang sagot ni Ken Zhu sa kiss na inilalambing sa kanya ni John Lapus.

Nagbibiro lang si Ken na hindi naman mukhang takot sa bading o homophobic. Paradise ang tawag ni Ken sa Batanes dahil isa ito sa mgagandang lugar na napuntahan niya.

Daig pa nga ako ni Ken dahil never ko pang napuntahan ang Batanes eh naturingan ako na Pilipino. Nakapunta ako sa Europe at Amerika pero hindi ko pa nararating ang Batanes.

Nagiging unfair ba ako dahil dayuhan ako sa sariling bayan? Teka, planuhin ko na kaya ang pagbabakasyon sa Batanes na GMA 7 territory dahil malinaw na napapanood doon ang mga programa ng Kapuso network.

OPENING THIS WEEK

Batanes

Stars Iza Calzado, Ken Chu, Joem Basco, Bembol Roco, Daria Ramirez.
Directed by Adolf Alix, Dave Hukom

According to directors Alix and Hukom, this drama recounts the love-hate relationship between a Manila girl (Calzado) and the sea that killed her Ivatan husband (Basco), but brought her a Taiwanese lover (Chu). Alix told INQUIRER Entertainment that Batanes island is a character in the movie. "Specifically, the ocean. Funny thing was, whenever we shot drama scenes, the waves were rough. But if it was a tender scene, the sea was calm."

agree..I was actually amazed with the actors' lines and the cinematography's really great. It is a simple love story but then yet it is very deep. very profound.

hello keniacs...dios ko...nahawaan na ako ng cold virus ni ken...lol!

Hi Nina_Kristine. The movie rating is PG 13 -- so that means children under the age of 13 may watch the movie provided that they are accompanied by their parents. My 2-year old neice was at the premier last night :) but she was with her Mom, of course. :)

Ken Chu gives RP producer big discount

FOLLOWING its Philippine commercial run, which starts today in Metro Manila, 'Batanes,' the movie, guns for an Asia-wide release.

Director Adolf Alix, Jr. said that partners Ignite Media and GMA Films will both handle the international distribution of the film, a love story set against the now tranquil, now reckless waters of Batanes, the country's northermost island province.

Asked how the production managed to sign up Ken Chu, a singer-actor member of the famed 'F4' boy band which became a sensation throughout Asia, Alix said a friend hooked them up with a Hong Kong-based Filipino, who knew Ken.

Aiming for the moon, Alix sent Ken a script. In one week, the Taiwanese actor accepted the offer and made himself available for the shoot. He said he had wanted so much to see Batanes, famous for its white sand beaches, green mountains, and wide open spaces.

After two weeks of filming, Ken had fallen in love with the island. In an interview, he said he wanted to buy a property on the island.

Ken joked that in accepting the movie offer, he gave the Manila producers a lot of discount. Ken and his leading lady, Iza Calzado, were honored as honorary children of Batanes during a preview of the film held Monday at the Podium. Ken said he's open to doing another movie in the Philippines.

Mayor Demi Narag of Basco town presented Iza and Ken a vacul each, the traditional rainy season vest (for men) and headdress (for women) as a symbol of their being adopted children of the province.

F4 member, hubad kung hubad...
IZA, SUPER-ENJOY SA LAPLAPAN NILA NI KEN

Inggit na inggit ang mga fans ni Ken Chu sa love scene at laplapan nila ni Iza Calzado sa Batanes na palabas na today December 5.

"Dapat, nag-sub na lang sila, e! Timeout, puwedeng pa-sub, "bungad na biro ni Iza.

Ipapa-double niya?

"Yes! go! Ipapa-double ko na lang." tumatawa pa niyang tugon.

Anyway, tuwang-tuwa si Iza at ang staff ng Batanes (maging si Direk Adolf Alix, Jr.) dahil madaling kausap si Ken at ang manager nito. Kahit nasa kontrata na bawal siyang mag-topless sa love scnee nila ni Iza ay na-convince pa rin itong maghubad.

Hindi ba naiilang si Iza sa mainit na elsena nila ni Ken?

"Nu'ng i-shoot yun, mahigit one week na kaming magkasama. Second to the last week na namin kinunan 'yun, okey na," sambit niya.

Kaya ba parang mas aggressive siya sa laplapan nila ni Ken sa Batanes? Sa bandand huli ng love scene, parang siya na ang nagtatrabaho...

"Talaga?! Okey lang 'yun. Ha!ha!ha! Nasa eksena naman 'yun at istorya, 'di ba? Given na one year, wala kang asawa, tapos eto na 'yun. Iisipin mo talagang na in love rin ako sa kanya sa movie at feeling ko, kung mali 'yung eksenang 'yun, iko-correct naman ako ni Adolf," paliwanag pa niya.

Wala bang adjustment nu'ng unang magkita sila sa shooting? Hindi ba siya nayabangan kay Ken?

Siyempre, nu'ng umpisa, lahat naman tayo, parang hindi at ease at nagtatanong kung mabait ba ito? Nangangapa rin kami nu'ng umpisa. Feeling ko, siya rin ay nangangapa. Nu'ng second day, napansin namin, mukhang maayos lalo't hindi naman natin siya minamaltrato. Actually, natuwa talaga siya sa stay niya rito," kwento ni Iza pagkatapos ng press preview ng Batanes sa Podium nu'ng Lunes kung saan nandoon din si Ken at mukhang pumayat at gumuwapo sa personal.

Bukod kay Ken, naka-love scene ni Iza si Joem Bascon. "Actually, nakakatawa 'yun dahil first or second day namin nu'ng kinunan 'yung love scene. Kahit ako, my God! Hindi ko pa masyadong kilala itong taong ito. Pero since first time niya sa kissing scene, love scence, kinakabahan siya talaga.

"Naiilang siya lalo't one year pa lang umaarte 'yung tao. Pero isipin mo naman, naiilang din ako pero kailangan talaga, maglakas-loob. Sabi ko nga sa kanya, 'Kaya natin ito.'"

Hindi naman siya nag-take advantage? "Not at all. 'Yung bata, 21 lang siya, e!'" tugon pa niya.

By the way, kasama sa Batanes sina Coco Martin, Sid Lucero, Glaiza de Castro, Julio Diaz, Daria Ramirez at Bembol Roco. Handog ito ng Ignite Media at GMA Films.

Ken balak bumili ng lupa sa Batanes

Dahil nagandahan nang husto sa bansang Pilipinas, partikular na sa Batanes, planong bumili ng mga properties dito sa atin ng Taiwanese Superstar na si Ken Chu.

Sinusubukang mabuti ni Ken na makabili ng mga lupain sa Pilipinas, pero alam niyang kailangan muna niyang maging isang Filipino citizen bago niya ito maisakatuparan.

First project ni Ken ang Batanes ng GMA Films at Ignite Media Inc. at nag-enjoy siya nang husto sa paggawa nito sa ating bansa kaya nangako siyang magpapabalik-balik siya sa Pinas.

Alam kasi ni Ken na maaari pang i-develop at mas lalong pagandahin ang maraming mga lugar sa ating bansa kaya nagbabalak siyang mag-stay ng medyo matagal sa Pilipinas kapag kinaya ng kanyang very busy schedule.

Ken Chu Gustong Maging Pinoy

HALOS dalawang linggo rin nanatili ang Asian Superstar na si Ken Chu sa Batanes, habang ginagawa niya ang pelikulang "Batanes" ng Ignite Media, Inc. at GMA Films, na ipalalabas na ngayong December 5. Ayon kay Ken, sa loob lang daw ng ilang araw niyang pagsho-shooting sa Batanes ay nabighani na siya sa lugar at sa katunayan pa nga ay paraiso ang dating nito para kay Ken. Sa ngayon plano ni Ken na bumili ng property sa naturang lugar at magtayo ng negosyo pero hindi raw ganun kadali ito para kay Ken dahilan sa kinakailangan pa niyang maging Filipino citizen bago makabili ng lupa sa Pilipinas. Hindi naman isinasantabi ni Ken ang posibilidad na magbabalik siya ng Batanes upang mamirmihan na dito dahilan sa may nakikitang potensyal si Ken na mapaunlad at madevelop ang Batanes sa pamamagitan ng pagtatayo ng negosyo rito. Leading lady niya ang ating international star na si Iza Calzado.

[aken03]

Buti pa ang mga bata..nakakandong kay KEN sa making ng BATANES..suskopo!!!!

From: So... Chismis Itoh!?
by Ruel Mendoza

Happy ulit ang buong staff ng Showbiz Central dahil five straight weeks na nilang natatalo ang The Buzz. Nitong nakaraang Sunday ay nakakuha ng 12.3% rating ang Showbiz Central against sa 11.6% ng The Buzz. Ang naging malaking bentahe nga ng Showbiz Central ay ang live na pagdalo ng bida ng pelikulang Batanes na si Ken Chu kasama ang leading lady niyang si Iza Calzado.

Punong-puno nga ng fans ng F4 ang GMA Broadway Centrum noong Sunday dahil sa kagustuhan nilang makita ng live si Ken Chu. Marami pa nga raw ang hindi nakapasok sa studio dahil dumagsa nga ang maraming fans. Hindi naman sila nabigo dahil nagpakita ng katuwaan si Ken sa mga fans niyang Pinoy.

Nitong nakaraang Lunes ay nagkaroon ng press screening ang Batanes at nagkakaisa ang lahat na pang-international ang dating ng pelikulang ito na dinirek ni Adolf Alix, Jr. at Dave Hukom.

The island of Batanes itself is one big work of genius. Muntik na nga nitong ma-overshadow ang mga bida na sila Ken at Iza. Kudos to the fantastic cinematography that captured the natural beauty of the island.

Iza once again proved that she is the country's next most important actress to watch out for. Her exquisiteness and genuine performance literally leaps out of the big screen. Tiyak na pag-aagawan ulit ng mga movie producers si Iza after siyang mapanood sa pelikulang ito. Pero exclusive na siyang contract star ng GMA Films.

Ngayong araw December 5 na nga ang showing ng Batanes.

TF ni Ken Chu discounted

May sipon at medyo inuubo ang Taiwanese international actor na si Ken Chu nang dumalo sa press preview cum presscon ng movie nilang Batanes ng Ignite Media at GMA Films na dinirek nina Adolf Alix at Dave Hukom, sa Podium Cinema last Monday.

Marunong din siyang magbiro dahil nang tanungin siya kung magkano ba ang talent fee niya, considering na member siya ng F4, sinabi niyang "Because I really love the script, I gave a very, very big discount." Adopted son and daughter na sila ni Iza Calzado ng Batanes sa isang ceremony na dumayo pa rito si Mayor Demi Narag ng Basco City.

Iza hindi nagpalamon kay Ken!

OPENING today ang "Batanes" ng Ignite Media and GMA Films.

Rated PG-13 by the MTRCB dalawa ang ibinigay ng Ignite and GMA Films na preview, a special advanced one for the press last Monday sa Podium and another one yesterday sa Trinoma pagkatapos magkaroon ng fans day ang F4 member na si Ken Chu.

We went to the first preview where in attendance ang dalawang producers ng GMA Films na si Annette Gozon-Abrogar and Joey Abacan, project manager Noel Ferrer. Ignite producer and co-director Dave Hukom, director Adolfo Alix, Jr. and the stars of the movie na sina Iza Calzado, Mike Tan, Coco Martin, Joem Bascon at si Ken Chu.

Stressed from her Manila job si Pam (Iza) nang makilala niya by an unfortunate incident ang Ivatan na si Rico (Joem) na nagbabakasakali sa siyudad. Dinala ni Rico si Pam sa bayan niya sa Batanes at doon sila nagpakasal at nanirahan kasama ang pamilya ni Rico, ang kapatid nitong si Melanie (Glaiza de Castro) at ang mapapangasawang si Noel (Mike), ang pinsan niyang si Manuel (Sid Lucero) at mga magulang (Daria Ramirez and Bembol Roco). Naaksidente si Rico sa dagat nguni't mula rin sa dagat nakilala ni Pam ang Taiwanese na si Kao (Ken) na naaksidente rin. Sa Batanes nagsimula ang kanilang story.

Ang pinaka sigurado namin, magiging isang malaking hit internationally ang "Batanes". The Filipino audience might find the movie languorous for our cinematic taste na dapat may aksyon kada 10 minutes but internationally, this will be hailed for the visual feast it will present.

Good first try ito in directing for Dave and another feather naman for Adolf na paborito yatang tema ang tubig at malayong lugar (Donsol, Kadin) as hindi rin naman siguro pahuhuli ang pelikula sa mga award giving bodies for next year for several categories and we're betting on a handful like cinematography, production design, theme song and would you believe pati sa special effects.

Itinututing nang pinakamagandang lugar sa Pilipinas, mas lalo pang pinatingkad ang ganda ng Batanes sa cinematograpy ni Ramoncito Rodoble.

Breathtakingly beautiful ang Batanes both the place and the movie isang makabagong paraiso ito sa paningin ng bawa't manonood ng pelikula. Nakakamangha rin ang pelikula from the production design of Cyrus Khan that really captured the heart and the hearth of Batanes at ang may kurot sa pusong theme song ni Noel Cabangon na "Pag-Iisa".

Now, take a very good look sa eksenang naaksidente na si Joem and notice the incoming wave by the side of the screen. Super subtle ito we really thought it was the force of nature cooperating with the movie. Kung hindi pa kami nagtanong sa associate director na si Arman Reyes, hindi namin malalamang special effects lang ito and this on its own is outstanding.

Napakagaling ni Iza sa pelikula specially the latter part. She is best in her solo quiet moments kung saan retrospective siya sa buhay. Being the ethereal beauty that she is, lumalaban din ang ganda niya sa kapaligiran minsan nahihirapan kaming pumili kung ano ang titingnan namin, ang acting niya o ang scenic backdrop.

Ken is also very good. We may not like his current look ngayon na parang mama na compared sa Meteor Garden days niya but he does know how to act and that's important. And yes, may chemistry and dalawa specially sa first meetings nila.

Joem has promise. Medyo tentative kami sa first part of his appearance na laging smiling eyes siya na parang hindi nag-iinteract kay Iza but then as the movie progresses, we found out na it was his character's nature pala so natanggap namin ito.

Magaling din si Glaiza na natural ang acting almost, no acting nga na parang tunay na buhay and so is Ms. Daria lalo na sa eksenang she realized she lost her son pero may gusto kaming ipromote, si Bembol also in that scene. Walang dialogue, walang iyak, walang emote, isang side view lang ang ginawa niya accepting his son's fate pero tumatak sa amin ito. Sina Mike, Coco and Sid are all beautifully photographed and profiled pero halos dumadaan lang sila sa mga eksena hindi nga namin naringgan ng dialogue si Mike.

Overall, "Batanes" is one of the best tourism ad for the country. It helps na may laman din ito kahit paano at may F4 pa so it will passably.

The audience in the Broadway Studio where "Showbiz Central" was held last Sunday went wild when Taiwanese actor Ken Zhu appeared with his "Batanes" co-star, Iza Calzado. The F4 star confirmed he's doing a new TV series with Jerry Yan and company and this will be shown next year. Ken admitted to host Pia Guanio that he likes it here in the Philippines. "I like the people here, the atmosphere, the food, especially camote cue," he says. "I love Batanes. Its like paradise."

He also enjoyed working with Iza. "She's a nice person and we get along very easily. She gave me a good time.

Pia asked him to sing but he begged off saying he's not feeling well. "He came straight from the airport," says Iza. "At may ubo't sipon siya. But he still came just to promote our movie that starts its regular run this Wednesday.

Can love conquer differences in culture and language? Can one woman fight the mighty force of the sea? Can one place have so much beauty but also cause so much pain? These are the questions that are answered in the epic tale of love and loss in Batanes: Ang Pag-Ibig ay Walang Hangganan. 天Ken


In the paradise islands of Batanes, the sea is a jealous lover that demands respect and attention. She is powerful. She is temperamental. She is a force to be reckoned with. This is according to Rico, Joem Bascon’s character in the film. Pam, exceptionally played by the lovely Iza Calzado, finds out exactly what Rico meant when she goes head to head with the strength of the mighty sea.

But the sea is as generous as she is demanding. In the midst of her angry storm, Pam is given another chance to prove her mettle when she finds Kao, portrayed by Ken Chu. The film then takes on another significant turn.
Can two people from two different cultures, who do not even speak the same language, find it in themselves to fall in love once again?


Crossing Cultures

In a grand premiere night last December 4, 2007 at Trinoma Mall, people waited for hours to finally watch the much talked about film, Batanes. Fans lined the red carpet, eagerly waiting for a glimpse of the stars. People from as far as Cebu, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore clamored for tickets to watch this supposedly quiet little indie film.Qv{2K6c/Z


iGMA was able to ask Ken and Iza if it was difficult to build a rapport between them, given the fact that they were technically marooned in a far off island for this project. This is the first time that the former F4 member got a chance to work with Filipinos
Ken said "At first I thought there would be a gap. But after working with Iza, I found out that the way we try to communicate with each other, the things that we talked about basically, we’re the same."
H
And Iza replied by saying "What I feel is that most people are really the same. It doesn’t really depend what culture they’re from. Maybe in some small things lang, trivial things. Even with working with other foreigners, that’s what I realized we’re all the same."


GMA Films and Ignite Media are already under negotiations to distribute the film all across Asia. There are also plans of entering the movie in film festivals. According to Director Adolf Alix Jr. Ignite wanted to produce a movie that can cross over. And, time and again it has been proven that there is nothing like a good love story to cross the boundaries of language and culture.

The regular showing of Batanes: Ang Pag-Ibig ay Walang Hangganan will be on December 5.

Pakikipaglaplapan ni Iza, may basbas ng non-showbiz BF
By: Gerry Ocampo
Hot Shots

IKINAGULAT ng entertainment press ang pagta-topless ni Iza Calzado sa Batanes with matching torrid kissing scene sa mapalad na Star Magic talent na si Joem Bascon.

Although justified naman ang mainit na love scene, paano kaya napapayag si Iza nina Direk Adolf Alix Jr. at Dave Hukom?

“Nang tanggapin ko ang Batanes, alam ko nang may kissing at love scenes ako with Ken Chu at Joem. Hindi ko lang alam kung paano gagawin,” say ng aktres sa press preview ng pelikula kamakailan.

“I trusted na lang Direk Adolf. Mas daring ’yung kissing at love scenes namin ni Joem kesa ’yung sa amin ni Ken,” dagdag pa ni Iza.

Natiyempuhan naman namin si Joem sa looby ng Podium cinema na medyo tensed. Kinakabahan daw siya sa magiging comment ng mga reporter.

Tinanong namin ito kung paano pinaghandaan ang siguradong pag-uusapan nilang romansahan ni Iza sa Batanes.

“Mabuti na lang at napakabait ni Iza.Tinuruan niya ako ng dapat gawin para hindi lumabas na masagwa ang eksena. Nag-bonding muna kami ng isang araw para maiwasan ang pagkailang sa isa’t isa bago kinunan ang bed scene,” sagot ni Joem.

Inamin din niyang tinablan siya sa naturang bed scene dahil tao lang siya’t napakaganda raw ni Iza.

Samantala, ipinaalam naman pala ng aktres sa non-showbiz BF ang pagpapaka-daring sa naturang joint venture ng GMA Films at Ignite Media, Inc.

Although nagulat, naunawaan naman daw siya nito’t nagsabing, “Alam kong hindi mo gagawin ’yung eksena kung hindi talaga maganda ang movie.”

Palabas na nga pala ngayon ang Batanes sa mga sinehan.

“Si Ken, it’s also his first love- scene and we have to show that we’re making a connection. Pero kabado” – Iza Calzado

Iza beds two ‘virgins’

IZA Calzado has two lovescenes in "Batanes." One is with new comer Joem Bascon who plays her ill-fated husband and the other one is with Taiwanese actor Ken Chu who plays a Chinese fisherman who gets lost at sea and gets stranded in their island.

"Both of them, sila ang kinakabahan sa love scene namin, lalo si Joem na ako ang umalalay sa eksena. Dapat, very gentle ang eksena namin. Si Ken, it’s also his first love scene and we have to show that we’re making a connection. Pero kabado as I know he has many fans as a member of the F4 at baka magalit sila sa’kin so ngayon pa lang sinasabi ko na, trabaho lang po. He has done two films ("Sky of Love" and "Tokyo Trial") pero wala raw parehong lovescene kaya his manager was requesting na puro mukha lang ang ipakikita, no body shots. But Direk Adolf Alix explained na hindi naman puede yung ganun kaya may scene din siya na topless siya. He’s nice to work with. Nang minsan umuwi siya sa Taiwan, pagbalik niya, may pasalubong na pagkain para sa amin ng buong cast and crew."

We’ve seen the film and Iza delivers a fine performance as Pam, the grieving widow who falls in love with Ken, who was deserted by his wife for another man.

The beauty of Batanes is captured in the movie, with its pristine beaches and breathtaking scenery that’s worth the price of admission.

Can't get enough of Batanes. Nakapanood ako nung premiere night. Ang saya. Kakamiss si Ken. Sana dito na lang siya nakatira sa Philippines.

Yesterday, went to Robinson's Galleria. Nanood ulit ako ng Batanes together with 3 companions. Mga 20 siguro kaming nanonood at that time. Yung 1 p.m. yung pinanood ko. Naririnig ko nag-gigiggle yung mga girls sa lovescene ni Ken and Iza. Saka doon sa kiss ni Ken and Iza nung nagdadrawing sila.

Today, manonood ulit ako. Ibang sinehan naman. I plan to watch it everyday while it's showing.

I love Ken.
