Kapuso actress Heart Evangelista is “super willing” to become the tour guide of K-pop idol and dancer Lisa Manoban to Sorsogon, where Heart's husband Chiz Escudero sits as governor.

The answer came after the BLACKPINK member shared that she wants to interact with the whale sharks in the said province.

In an interview held by Penshoppe, Lisa was asked by a fan, if given the opportunity to tour the Philippines, what specific attraction would she like to visit.

The singer answered, “Oh, actually, I have two places that I want to go and visit.

“First, the Chocolate Hills. It is like several hills that look like chocolate because of its color.

“And then I want to go to the place where you can snorkel with whale sharks. That's so cool that you can swim together with the whale sharks there.”

She added, “The last time I went to the Philippines to do the tour, I told my manager if we could go because I want to swim with the whale sharks. It's hard to go there, so maybe next time.”

Upon hearing the news, a fan posted Lisa's answer and tagged the Kapuso actress prompting Heart to reply, “OMG… super willing ako mag-tour guide! Padabaaaaa Lisa #MahalKongSorsogon.”

Donsol is a municipality in Sorsogon that is known for its whale shark sightings from November to June.

According to Donsol Eco Tour, whale sharks between 4 to 12 meters in length migrate to the municipality to take advantage of the dense food concentration of plankton and krill brought by current patterns.
