It will be Dingdong’s first time to portray a priest, as Father Kokoy.

Na-assign siya sa isang community kung saan masusubukan ang kanyang kakayahan dahil sa mga taong nakapaligid sa kanya. Bilang mga Pilipino, we have our ways of practicing our faith kaya naman malapit talaga sa puso ko ang role ko rito. [Kokoy, who comes from a good family, chooses to serve the Church. He is assigned to a community where is challenged because of the people around him. As Filipinos,  we have our ways of practicing our faith which is why this role is really close to my heart.]”
