Next up in Precious Hearts Romances presents Bud Brothers is the love story between Pinoy Fear Factor hunk Manuel Chua and Wowowee host Valerie Concepcion. ABS-CBN.com visited the set of Bud Brothers in Tagaytay and spoke to Manuel about his upcoming episode in the romance teleserye. “Ako si Ed Lacson, ‘yung pretty boy daw sa mga Bud Brothers. Binigyan ako ng task na i-seduce si Hiromi, ‘yung may ari ng kalaban na flower shop para makuha namin ‘yung business niya. Una kong inakit ‘yung bading niyang flower arranger na si Joel. Nung mabola ko na si Joel, mas lalong nagalit sa amin si Hiromi. Nung una kong makita si Hiromi na-attract na ako sa kanya agad pero natakot ako kasi matapang. Pero nung magkanakawan sa flower shop niya ako ‘yung nag-save sa kanya. Dun nagsimulang maging close sa akin si Hiromi." The initial plan was to pair Manuel with fellow PFF Participante Janna Dominguez and Valerie with Will Devaughn. But after a cast revision, Janna was paired with Joem Bascon and Will with Wendy Valdez. Manuel said that he never had any problem working with Valerie who is more experienced in acting. “Masayang ka-trabaho si Valerie. Nagtutulungan kami sa mga eksenang gagawin namin. Nagkakilala na kami nung mag-guest ako sa Banana Split. Madali siyang lapitan hindi ‘yung tipong mahihiya ka kaya naging okay kami agad. Excited ako na may bagong ka-trabaho. Ngayon nga kapag break sa set nagkakabiruan na kami.” He added that he and Valerie get a lot of help from their director Eric Reyes. "Mainly kami ni Valerie sumusunod kami sa sinasabi ni Direk Eric Reyes. Si direk napaka-detailed niya at talagang perfectionist. Ipapaliwanang niya sa amin ‘yung bawat eksena at kung anong klaseng emosyon dapat ‘yung makita sa amin."
In the Precious Hearts book, Manuel’s character is a model who once appeared in a sexy film, which meant they had to shoot the scene for the series as well. Manuel told ABS-CBN.com that he never had a problem doing this daring scene. "Hindi naman talaga x-rated, parang sexy film lang. Na-shoot na namin kaninang umaga, diyan sa may malapit na niyugan. Kapartner ko si Shy (the house player in Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition Plus). Sa may labas kinunan ‘yung eskena kasi ang title daw nung movie e ‘Gata.’ So ‘yung love scene ginawa sa ilalim ng puno ng niyog. Sa eksena hinubaran ako, pinunit ‘yung sando ko tapos may mga kiss na."He also shared that the love scene was the easy part, and the real challenge was running in the grass.
"Bago ‘yung eksena kinakabahan talaga ako kaya nga si direk muntik na akong batukan. Madali lang naman ‘yung eksena kasi sandali lang at hindi naman talaga detalyado. May mga part na hindi kita ‘yung mukha ko para hindi agad ma-reveal na ako ‘yung nasa movie. Madali lang ‘yung love scene, ang mahirap talaga ‘yung tumatakbo. May part kasi na naghahabulan kami sa damuhan. Ang hirap ng timing."But aside from this, Manuel is also set to shoot a love scene with Valerie. He confessed that he’s a bit nervous because he is just a new actor. But since he and Valerie have grown more comfortable with each other in the few taping days they have been together, he is confident that the two of them will do the scene perfectly. “Hindi pa nga namin nashu-shoot ‘yung love scene. Nabasa ko na kung paano gagawin pero hindi ko pa talaga masabi kasi syempre iba pa rin kapag gagawin na. Kinakabahan nga ako e. Wala pa nga kaming kissing scene e. Hindi ko siya tinatanong tungkol dun, siyempre nakakahiya naman. Pero alam naman niya na may love scene at siguro naman ready na siya.
Watch Manuel and Valerie in Precious Hearts Romances presents Bud Brothers weekdays after Kambal Sa Uma.
