Moving to the Philippines 🇵🇭 | Feb.Mar Update
Added 2022-01-28 00:10:10 +0000 UTCHallo!
Just want to give you guys a heads up on the next two months since I will be embarking on a new chapter in my life pretty soon.
Moving to the Philippines
If you haven't seen my social media post, I recently announced that I am flying one-way to the Philippines. Yes, I am moving-moving. The last time I was there (Nov), I just discovered a whole new space that I didn't get to see before. My family is from the province of Batangas (kinda like Busan if in SK I guess) and I stayed in Manila which is the capital city. I felt that I could live there long term and explore more of what I can do as a creative as well as to experience new things. I've met with several industry people and the possibilities are exciting and I am hoping for many things -- old and new -- to happen. But if they don't, at least I have gotten to know the country I was born in more and then it's on to the next. But I am super excited to see what's out there for me! (Also, omg so close to S.Korea 🥳)
I will be flying out on March 6th (layover in Seoul!). My condo's lease here in Canada ends at the end of Feb so I will be taking several days in the last week of Feb off from filming to pack and schedule movers etc. First week of March, I will be spending time with family then it's off to the Philippines.
As of today, there is up to 14 days of hotel/home quarantine for people coming from Canada but that could change. I will resume filming during this time from my hotel like how I did back in November. After my quarantine, I will be doing Airbnb until I found a place to rent. Don't worry, I will be able to film still. I'm the type to see 2-4 places and then decide which I wanna rent so it shouldn't take a lot of time for me haha. I'm aiming for an April move-in date -- if not, then I'm extending my Airbnb. EDIT: There is no more hotel quarantine required for vaccinated travellers (ref)
Content for FEB & MAR
I will continue with SWF variety content and catch up on other stuff but I am keeping an eye out for new survival shows. Street Dance Girls should be done before end of January and I am hearing Queendom S2 is in March. If so, then I won't start any survival show in Feb and just wait for that.
Coming Up (not in order of release)
- Enhypen-TXT's Playground (weekly)
- NCT 127 Sticker Together (weekly)
- SM Hope Behind Recording
- SWF Variety (weekly)
- Album reactions (NCT Dream, Treasure if more than 2 songs, and others that might still be announced)
- Etc that will still come out
KDramas I Want to Check Out This Year
- Rookie Cops (Kang Daniel Drama) Jan 26 -- Let me know if it's good if you've watched it!
- Business Proposal (Ahn Hyo-seop, Kim Se-jong, Victon’s Byungchan) Feb 2022
- Tomorrow (my husband, Rowoon)
- Island (my other husband, Cha Eunwoo)
- Note: I usually watch the first episode and then see if I am continuing the series, so these are not set. Lmk if there are other ones I might like!
Disclaimer: Anything can change in terms of scheduling, etc. so please be mindful these are not set in stone but this is what it is until otherwise.
Thanks guys!

2022-02-01 12:20:40 +0000 UTCGood luck with your move to the Philippines - you're lucky in that you have family both where you're leaving and going. Not many people have that luxury (family can be the biggest flex in one's life!). If you can find someone to make the trip worthwhile to South Korea (a business collaborator), say in 3 months time when the country may possibly open up when their variant numbers hopefully decline, you may want to take a trip there before it gets really hot in the summer. You'll probably still need to quarantine, but if you plan carefully, you may get into music shows, see concerts, travel to Jeju-Do. The possibilities are endless! [I'm assuming you have an international driver's license - that would be helpful to have.] Just because it's a business trip doesn't mean you can't have fun, too!

2022-01-29 13:10:59 +0000 UTCSo excited for your new adventure in the Philippines, Jeff! Hope everything goes well 😊 Btw SWF leaders are in a new variety show that just started! I'm not sure if you're interested but it's more like them living the countryside life in a deserted house 😂 If you like to check it out some time, it's called We Don't Bite: SWF in the Countryside !

Ingat palagi 😊

2022-01-28 12:44:58 +0000 UTCCongrats! I hope the best for you when you go there! If youre looking for a drama rec, Our Beloved Summer just ended and its by far the best kdrama ive seen. Its wholesome~ I'd love to see you react to It's Okay To Not Be Okay too.

2022-01-28 10:18:04 +0000 UTCWhat an exciting move! I'm also from the Philippines! Although lockdowns here are still... messy because of COVID. Hopefully you can watch En-Oclock after TXT and Enhypen's playground! I'm curious but have you heard about Tempest? It's a new bg about to debut under Yuehua Entertainment with Handin (fron Iland) and Ahn Hyeong-seop (the bubbly guy you like from Produce S2).

2022-01-28 04:33:41 +0000 UTCCongratulations on your new journey!! Hopefully only good things happen to you. I was wondering if you'll take a look at SM's remastering project featuring Aespa. It was for the remake of Dreams Comes True by S.E.S. it shows a little bit of everything from behind the scenes recording, to dance practice, and the filming. You can find it on Youtube.

2022-01-28 03:55:46 +0000 UTCDo you think you’ll react to OnlyOneOfs new comeback “Skinz”? It’s kind of a continuation to Libido and it’s a grower for most but I fucking love it! They don’t have a dance practice but the M2 fancam is pretty steady and the choreo is amazing!! Their leader Love/Jisung has left the group for unknown reasons so it’s just OT6. And this cb is off of their new album and I think you’d enjoy the songs a lot! ❤️☺️ I hope you enjoy your move to the Philippines!! Make sure you stay safe and I’m sure this change will be good for you ☺️💚💚

2022-01-28 02:34:26 +0000 UTCI would suggest OUR BELOVED SUMMER ❤ It's on Netflix! already completed (V also sang one of the OST☺️) and also ... Love and Leashes starring JUN (U-kiss) and SEOHYUN (Girls' Generation). I heard the manhwa it was based on was good. It would be available on Netflix too! Feb 11 I believe. CONGRATS JEFF!!! Hope to see you here in PH! Be Safe! and Take care always.

2022-01-28 02:20:35 +0000 UTCHow exciting Jeff! Wishing you the best and a smooth transition to life in the Philippines 😊 I am excited for NCT Stick Together series. As someone mentioned earlier, the “It’s awkward but it’s ok” series by NCT is a good suggestion too. They pair up 2 people from NCT together who normally wouldn’t be paired up for an interview/hangout.

2022-01-28 00:57:29 +0000 UTCLooking forward for your upcoming contents especially Enhypen-TXT's Playground - love their interactions especially on the 2nd episode. And also, NCT 127 Stick Together <3 As for Rookie Cops, I haven't watched it yet but I've read promising reviews about it. And it's Kang Daniel's acting debut so I'm so excited to watch it as well I'm also hoping that you'll react to Enhypen&Hi S2 and Enhypen's En-o'clock. En-o'clock has just realeased episode 22 yesterday and it was so fun. You'll get to learn more about the charms of the members :)

2022-01-28 00:48:13 +0000 UTCYou should check out SNOWDROP with Jisoo!! It's SO SO good I'm really loving it, and her acting really surpassed my expectations, she's really good! And good luck on the move!!

2022-01-28 00:45:58 +0000 UTCI wish you the best of luck in this new chapter in your life/career, Jeff. And I really hope everything works out for the best :) Welcome to the Philippines!
Makky Stephen Geronimo
2022-01-28 00:44:25 +0000 UTCSo happy you'd be coming home to the Philippines. I hope a get the chance to meet you. Well you'd probably be busy exploring the city/ies and of course the exciting opportunities for you. Good luck on those! I hope you can react to more Stray Kids variety too. There's a lot of choices whether you want something funny, more serious or just to know the members better. Anyway God Bless and Stay safe! 😊💜
Sandy Cai
2022-01-28 00:43:04 +0000 UTCHai Jeff! I'm so happy to see you taking big steps and making big plans! Congratulations! Concerning content, I highly recommend the drama Ghost Doctor with Rain! I would like to see you explore some older generation idol content like this! Also, when you have free time I recommend One Kids Room, it's Stray Kids variety content that let's you dive deeper into Stray Kids and who they are! Good luck on your move, I'm rooting for you!🎉
Kiwi Space
2022-01-28 00:38:49 +0000 UTCGood luck with your journey! So excited for you, I fee like I would be seeing you on the TFC channel👀
