Tom Rodriguez on his resemblance with Subaru Kimura: “Rapper din pala kambal ko.”

German-Japanese voice actor Subaru Kimura couldn't believe his eyes when he saw himself on television in 24 Oras's Chika Minute segment.

Except what he's seeing isn't actually him but Kapuso actor Tom Rodriguez.

On Twitter, Subaru Kimura tweeted a photo of Tom on television and wrote, “え、おれ?” meaning, “Eh, me?”

The tweet received more than 15K retweets and comments and 101K likes on the social media platform, with fans commenting that the two should do a collaboration very soon.

The news eventually reached Tom Rodriguez that had him cackling in laughter upon seeing the uncanny resemblance to the Japanese voice actor.

He added, “Nagulat ako ng mapa-check sa messages at requests ko na puno ng DMs tungkol dito.

“Kinabahan ako ng umpisa kasi 'di ko alam kung bakit maraming messages. Nagtataka ako kung ano nagawa ko… whew!

“Rapper din pala kambal ko. Pahiwatig na siguro ng Diyos. Hahaha!”
