Gumaganap bilang mag-ina sina Maria Ozawa at David Licauco sa hit GMA series na 'Pulang Araw.'
Masaya ang Japanese actress na si Maria Ozawa na naging bahagi siya ng hit GMA series na Pulang Araw na pinagbibidahan nina Barbie Forteza, Sanya Lopez, David Licauco, at Alden Richards.
Sa panayam ng GMANetwork.com kay Maria Ozawa, nakangiting sinabi ng aktres ang kaniyang saya sa pagganap niya bilang si Haruka Tanaka na ina ni Hiroshi Tanaka, na binibigyang buhay ni David Licauco.
“It was really fun. First, of course, I was very nervous, but as the day went on, it was really nice, and I really kind of liked playing the mother role. Like, very loving, and it was fun,” ani Maria.
Ayon pa sa actress, nagkaroon din siya ng paghahanda para sa kaniyang role bilang isang ina.
Aniya, “I actually asked around in Japan, like, my aunties and how they kind of raised the kids, and how, cause I heard from the director, he really wanted to be really traditional, like, real Japanese family. So I was asking [for] advice, like, what would I do or how I would react to kids.”
Bukod dito, ikinuwento rin ni Maria Ozawa ang naging first meeting nila ni David Licauco sa set ng Pulang Araw.
Matatandaan na bago pa ipalabas ang serye, nag-viral noon ang video ng naging guesting ni David Licauco sa game show na Family Feud.
“Maria Ozawa” kasi ang agad-agad na isinagot ni David sa tanong ng host na si Dingdong Dantes na, “Magbigay ng kilalang Maria…”

Ayon kay Maria Ozawa, nakarating at napanood niya ang video clip na ito ni David Licauco at siya mismo ay napatawa sa aktor.
“It was so funny because before I met him, I think I saw one of the shows. It was trending in Japan also, and then everybody was like, hashtag Maria Ozawa David in this TV show. And we were all, like, laughing about it,” ani Maria.
Nakatulong naman daw ito sa kanila ni David upang magkaroon sila agad ng koneksyon lalo pa't mag-ina ang kanilang mga karakter sa serye. Aniya, “It was really fun, and it was nice like we had something to talk about and I think we get along in a mother-son relationship.”
Nagpapasalamat din si Maria sa GMA dahil sa pagbibigay sa kaniya ng magandang karakter sa Pulang Araw.
“I am very grateful, and I haven't been acting for a long time, so I was a bit worried at first, but I'm very happy for this opportunity that GMA gave me, and I hope it will be a great success,” sabi ng sikat na aktres.
Umaasa rin si Maria Ozawa na mas makikilala ng Fillipino audience ang kultura nilang mga Hapones.
Mensahe niya, “I hope that they will understand more about how Japanese people, how Japanese families react to wars, and how their parents are the cultural difference that I said before it's really different.
“I am one hundred percent sure that by watching the series you can see and tell how different we communicate with the family members and how the husband holds the house and the kids and everything it's very different so I hope they can learn a bit of it and learn a little bit of Japanese culture.”
