“Off-cam ng Linlang, siguro kasi yung director namin, si Direk FM (Reyes), gusto niya magkakasama kaming kumain sa isang table. So pag break time namin, nagba-bonding kami with the staff, saka yung mga artista din sa isang table. So doon, nagkakakwentuhan, nagiging close na din,” Kim mentioned.

Paulo agreed that through these moments they became much closer: “I would say yung relationship namin, awkward talaga nung start. Medyo tahimik. Pero eventually, parang nakasanayan nga namin na, nag-launch kaming lahat sabay-sabay, kasama si Direk FM and the staff, sa dinner. Siguro doon nagsimula na mag-loosen up kami sa isa't isa.”
