Did you notice the Kapuso star featured in the end? 
 

Mikoy Morales recently achieved a career milestone as he has proven that he’s an all-around artist—a talented actor and a passionate musician. He launched his first single, "Pusong Hindi Makatulog," last April 4, and its music video last April 28.
 
 He shared pieces of trivia about the simple yet meaningful music video.
 
1. The whole video was shot for only three hours.
“Since we wanted the video to be simple, we wanted the location to be on point. So, we went to my tita’s place, our place, then ended up in the office… I just wanted it to be simple and truthful… We only shot the whole thing for three hours.”
 
2. It was directed by the internationally acclaimed Adolf Alix.
“Direk Adolf came up with the concept… It was all Direk Adolf and his team. Thank you [to them]!”
 
3. He had a personal assistant in the form of his brother.
“I convinced my younger brother to go to the shoot with me and all he did was play the music when needed. Much love!”

4. The song for which the video was made is also part of the soundtrack of the film, '4 Days,' The said film will be showcased at the 12th Cinemalaya Film Festival. Check out screening schedules at www.cinemalaya.org.
 
5. The girl in one of the photos at the end of the video is Thea Tolentino. 
Asked if the song was dedicated to Thea in any way because a photo of them together was seen in the last frame, he answered: “The video speaks for itself. Kung ano narinig niyo o nakita niyo sa video, then there you go.”
