The stars of the hit series The General’s Daughter proved that a packed schedule is not a problem as they squeezed in time to bond with Kapamilyas in General Santos to join in the city’s celebration of the annual Tuna Festival for the abundant harvest of fish in Sarangani Bay.
Ronnie Alonte and Loisa Andalio’s magnetic chemistry made over 2,000 Kapamilyas go wild in the Kapamilya Karavan event held at the KCC Mall Events Center, while the dashing duo of Arjo Atayde and JC De Vera made hearts flutter as they serenaded the audience.
Kapamilya heartthrob Paulo Avelino also sent a tidal wave of ‘kilig’ among Kapamilya fans during his performance on stage. Although The General’s Daughter lead star Angel Locsin was unable to join the celebration due to a medical condition, fans were touched when she called during the Kapamilya Karavan and promised to visit the Tuna Capital of the country.
Kapamilyas in GenSan were also treated to fun games and were entertained by the lively hosts of ABS-CBN’s “Magandang Umaga South Central Mindanao” Dyll and Joey C, as well as MOR DJs- Justine and Betina.
Meanwhile, last Friday (September 20), happenings of the Penafrancia Festival aired on television via ABS-CBN Naga, including the Regional Military Parade. Viewers also got to watch the traditional Fluvial Procession via livestream last Sept. 21 on the Choose Philippines YouTube channel.
The fun and love didn’t stop as the Kapamilya Karavan heads to Naga City for the Penafrancia Festival with the stars of FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano led by Coco Martin with Yassi Pressman, Basilyo, Smuglazz, PJ Endrinal, and Empoy on Sept. 28.
