What is Heart Evangelista's first impression of her leading man in 'My Korean Jagiya?'

GMA Network ventures to Seoul, South Korea for the first time to film for the new prime time series, My Korean Jagiya. In the romantic-comedy show, Heart Evangelista will be playing the role of Gia, a girl who loves the culture of South Korea.

Heart shared that she felt a bit of pressure knowing just how big this new project of hers is.

According to her, "When I got to Korea, mas lalong nag-sink in sa akin na 'Wow, this is such a huge project to be working with all these Korean actors [and] producers.' It's just on a different level."

This is also Heart's first time to visit South Korea and she thoroughly enjoyed her stay in the East Asian country.

"Naiintindihan ko na ngayon 'yung istorya ng mga Koreans, kung saan sila nanggaling, ano ang mga gusto nila, kaya mas lalo akong na-in love as 'yung character ko sa anything Korean," said the actress.

In My Korean Jagiya, Heart acts opposite a yet-to-be revealed Korean actor as her leading man. What is her first impression of him? 

"It's nice. Getting to know him of course in the beginning I was a bit intimidated kasi siyempre artista siya dito and experienced din siya. But then he's so nice, so easy to work with."
