Unang Hirit host and reporter Lyn Ching continues to inspire many with her stories and international coverage adventures.

Recently, the Kapuso journalist took to social media to share an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at her assignment at the Wicked: For Good premiere.

Standing along the themed yellow brick road carpet, Lyn switched into full professional mode with fellow reporter Kaloy Tingcungco. The duo immediately focused on the task, with Lyn turning extra attentive as soon as work began.

"When I'm on work mode, I'm in the zone. I buckle down and I do the job no matter what," Lyn captioned. "So when I'm with a work partner, it's inevitable for me to bark orders of what I want, specifically the shots and subjects. Like a drill sergeant, I do not play, I do not f**k around. Beast mode ON."

Lyn openly admitted her work style, balancing her serious side while still keeping an approachable demeanor when speaking with the stars she interviews.

"Happily I chose a great work partner in Kaloy Tingcungco whom I warned before we even stepped on the plane. So everything went smoothly except for me planting myself in the flowerbed (teka, tinulak mo ba ako Kaloy Tingcungco ?!? )."

In the end, Lyn successfully interviewed several cast members and even the film's director.

"This is the BTS of what it is like on the chaotic red carpet media pen. Sometimes, depending on the number of people, it could be louder, crazier and sardine like. But this one was just right with space to breathe. Thank goodness indeed.Enjoy a glimpse into my media pen life."

Fans quickly filled the comments section with praises for Lyn's professionalism and also cheered for her strong tandem with Kaloy.

Earlier, Lyn revealed the customized gifts she prepared for Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande. She gave Ariana a necklace engraved with the initials of her full name (Ariana Grande Butera), while Cynthia received a special armlet inscribed with her Igbo Nigerian name.

Lyn also reacted to a fan-cam capturing her “animated facials” during her interviews, something she laughed about on social media.

Wicked: For Good hits theaters on November 21, exploring the events after the first film's “Defying Gravity” scene. It reveals how Elphaba becomes the Wicked Witch of the West and how Glinda transforms into the Good Witch.

The star-studded cast includes Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Michelle Yeoh, Jeff Goldblum, and Marissa Bode.
